Extras. It's not a sitcom but it's really awesome.
Also IT Crowd.

Mm, it often moves in to situation comedy. It's not always situation comedy though, sure. (It's very good, yes.)

If you haven't seen it, watch it. It is as good as people say, if you understand British humour.

IT Crowd, so hilarious.

IT Crowd. Also (maybe?) The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret. I would call that show British comedy since everyone in it except David Cross is British =P

All that matters is who created the show, not who stars in it. That said, I have no idea if that show is British or not. =)

Definitely The IT Crowd, Blackadder, Red Dwarf, Keeping Up Appearances and Only Fools And Horses. <3

I think the first and second(?) series weren't too bad. Went badly downhill after that.

If you liked Coupling then I'd definitely recommend Peep Show and Spaced.

Seconded.
Also: "Teachers" (esp series 1-3) because it has similar real-life situation comedy mixed with incredible silliness/cutaway gags.

Red Dwarf, Blackadder, Vicar of Dibley, Fawlty Towers and Open All Hours are my favourite. I also quite like the more modern Spy.

The Thick of It (political comedy) because no-one else seems to have mentioned it.

This is Jinsy ( Alt Alt Alt Alt )

  • Bizarre comedy with occasional guest stars playing characters (Harry Hill, Catherine Tate, KT Tunstall, Marek Larwood, Jennifer Saunders, Don Warrington, David Tennant, Nigel Planer) set on the fictional island of Jinsy. Think: Little Britain but with structure and plot and no laugh-track. Seriously, check out some more clips on Youtube (not just the "Sandy's Choice" clips)

Spaced - Before Paul, Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead, Simon Pegg, Edgar Wright and Nick Frost made Spaced.

Not sitcoms but bizarre British comedy:
Chris Morris' Jam - "Unsettling"
Big Train (Alt Alt Alt) - Very fucking funny. Serious.

If you don't mind a bit of old-timey goodness:
Porridge (classic sitcom set in prison starring Ronnie Barker and Richard Beckinsale)
Open All Hours ( classic sitcom set in a corner-shop, starring Ronnie Barker and David Jason)
Rising Damp (Classic sitcom set in an appartment building starring Leonard Rossiter and Richard Beckinsale)

The Young Ones. I feel like I've seen every episode a billion times, but it still makes me laugh.

Indeed.

And if you like that, you might also like: Bottom, Filthy, Rich & Catflap and The New Statesman

Oh and Derek. Tragically funny and comically sad. I have so much time for it that it's not funny.
