A new YouGov survey has revealed that the most popular sitcom in Britain was made in America,
Friends led the way in the poll, which was carried out in honour of the 50th anniversary of the first episode of Fawlty Towers, which also appeared in the top-ranked programmes.
Those taking part in the survey were simply asked to write the name of their favourite television sitcom, if they had one.
More than half of responders did and came up with 137 different answers to the question.
