I'm not active on Forward Motion at the moment, but I do recommend poking around - the boards are enormous, and there's all sorts of stuff, including writing exercises, challenges and dares, crit circles, chat... it's a big community, and I know I never used half of what was available.
I have much love for Black Books - its just the right mix of surreal for me, and it's set in a BOOKSHOP! :) Do check it out if you can.
(And while we're on the subject of British comedy recs, you might also like Absolute Power. It stars Stephen Fry and John Bird as the heads of a PR agency, and...well, the easiest way to describe it is that Absolute Power is to public relations what Yes, Minister was to politics - sharp, witty, and painfully accurate. Brilliant, in other words.)
