Following my last post on the parlour game that is "Radio 4 minus 1", I began to think about a spin-off: "BBC TV minus 1". Here are a few suggestions:
A Question of Spot: Bill Beaumont and Emlyn Hughes captain the teams in the quiz show where every contest has chickenpox
'Allo 'Alo: A comedy in which an angel falls from heaven and takes refuge with the French resistance
Bids of a Feather: A very cheap auction show
Doctor Ho: Adventures of a time-travelling prostitute
Granstand: Low-budget sports show in which the main interest is how long it takes your relative to get out of her chair
House of Cads: Not too different from the original House of Cards actually
Noel's Hose Party: A tiresome Saturday evening programme in which everyone gets doused by the host
Tet the Nation: Anne Robinson hosts a quiz about the Vietnam War

Might I suggest a few horrors:
Fiends – a neverending show about six particularly evil New York twentysomethings
How I et your mother – five equally evil New York twentysomethings discuss their kooky cannibal adventures (an obvious rip-off of Fiends)
2 – a short film in which Agent Jack Bauer has only a couple of hours to save the world
