Brand new and exclusive to UKTV Gold this month is When Were We Funniest: The 60's, which continues the channel's year-long celebration of home grown British comedy throughout the decades.
In previous shows, the likes of Meera Syal, Jo Brand and Phill Jupitus have argued the case for the 1970s, 80s and 90s being the best comedy decade and this month it's the turn of The Office star Martin Freeman to be advocate for the 1960s.
A self-confessed lover of comedy from the earlier part of the 20th century, Martin will present his argument with the aid of clips of classic 60s comedy.
Marty Feldman, Monty Python, Not Only But Also, The Likely lads (pictured), Tony Hancock and The Frost Report are all legends from the era and all are crucial to Martin's argument. With a list like this it's hard to see past this hugely influential decade. But will the viewers think so?
Throughout the show, Martin will also throw the doors open and ask viewers to vote for their very own favourite 60s clips.
I know that this is being shown 5 different times but how many are repeated and how many are different? Also, which episode will show clips from 'The Office'?
