    What would be the big deal with calling it English sitcoms ?
    You know full well that if they put a Welsh language sitcom in that wasn't particularly good (yes I do remember it) then it would be tokenism.

    It's like doing a list of the top 20 UK footballers and there's no Northern Irish or Scottish players in it. It doesn't make it English/Welsh only. It's reflecting reality, or in this case popularity.

    A best loved list can't include programmes that 1% of people have watched. That's just the way it is.

    I guess my point is...why not just call it “Best English sitcoms”.

    Is it language or nationality that concerns you?

    Should the title be "Greatest British-made English-language sitcom"?

    Or "Greatest sitcoms mainly made by English people but with help from those from other parts of the UK (and maybe international too)"?

    I just think it’s inaccurate.
