Desmond's is being repeated on the Africa channel. It's on Sky, not sure if that channel's on Virgin etc though.
A BBC2 show called The Cops. It's never been repeated and it's not available on dvd either.
Take Me Home starring Keith Barron and Maggie O'Neill.
Loved Absolutely when I was a teenager, it was one of the cult shows amongst my classmates If you can get 4OD they're all on there. I saw them recently and I still found them very, very funny!
I also liked Brass Eye and The Day Today. I don't know if you remember another Chris Morris show on C4 called Jam with the brilliant Mark Heap, Kevin Eldon, Julia Davis and Amelia Bulmore. It was very dark humour, a bit weird and uncomfortable at times but it definitely should be repeated.

Did not realise 4OD had shows going back that far. I'll give them another watch.
I do remember Jam, but never got into it at the time. Think it is something that I would appreciate more now.
Don't see enough of Chris Morris, although he was in the recent Stewart Lee's Comedy Vehicle.
I'd love to see 'God's Wonderful Railway' - a children's TV series from 1980 - repeated, or at least released on DVD.
There's part of one episode on YouTube - featuring Dot Cotton and 'Brookside's' Harry Cross playing a station-master's wife and train driver respectively.
It was a lovely little series, filmed on the Severn Valley Railway.

They've got Whose Line Is It Anyway? on 4OD too, another favourite of mine from the 80's/90's
Jam is on dvd. I don't think it'll be repeated so I might have to buy it, it's not too expensive on Amazon at the moment. I'm wondering if it's on 4OD, now I think about it, I'll have to check.
I managed to catch Stewart Lee's Comedy Vehicle a few weeks back and noticed Chris Morris. I hadn't seen him on tv for years! He wrote a comedy for C4 called Nathan Barley about seven or eight years ago but I'm not sure what he's done since, apart from being on SLCV. He certainly wasn't afraid to tackle taboo subjects in his comedy and offend some people!

I loved Making out , Id also like to see People like us the drama series from the 80s based on RF delderfields avenue stories
But both of those are on DVD so it's not really a problem
Yeah loved them as well (and got the DVD's).
Another I've remembered is Back Up a cop show about the TSG, did get a Gold re-run but nothing in years. Seeing Between the Lines again would be good as well.

When I think about FB and RC would (along with White Horses) be the first European tv shows I had ever seen

Edit: Jam isn't on 4OD
Chris Morris was the original boss, Mr Reynholm in "The IT Crowd".
It was also believed he was behind the HIGNFY hoax about Merton and Hislop accusing Jimmy Savile of being a paedophile when he was a guest on the programme, which never happened, but an alleged "transcript of unbroadcast material" was circulated on the Internet

Who Dares wins - early C4 comedy - live ish. Missed an episode, never shown again.
Was on not long back on CBS Drama, and no doubt be on again soon, as its been on there a few times now, as always gets repeated.
