Gold kicks off its ‘5 Ways to the Perfect Sitcom’ season with comedy mashup

TV mashup king, Cassetteboy, today (Monday 18 July) launches Gold’s summer season campaign ‘The 5 Ways to the Perfect Sitcom’ with a brand new 60 second montage of its most loved comedies.

Over the past few months the good people at Gold (Sky 110, Virgin 126) have been dissecting what makes the perfect sitcom, and have come up with the following 5 vital ingredients.

The sidekick, the powerful woman, the situation, the love story and of course the flawed hero.

In celebration of these findings, each weekday at 10pm, over the next 5 weeks, Gold (Sky 110, Virgin 126) will be showing the best of British sitcoms that highlight that particular theme. This week is sidekick week, and kicks off with Baldrick in a classic episode of Blackadder tonight, followed tomorrow night with Smithy in Gavin And Stacey, Alice in The Vicar of Dibley and Rodney in Only Fools and Horses.

In addition to this, Gold will also be running a weekly poll on their Facebook page: 

facebook.com/goldtvchannel  where you can vote for your perfect sitcom and each week win a 32” LCD television.

Watch the best of British sitcom week nights at 10pm only on Gold (Sky110, Virgin 126).
