New series starts Thursday 10pm Beeb 2. Including a 60-yr old Ant and Dec fondly reminiscing about the time Charlotte Church vomited herself inside out, according to El Reg.

i'm looking forward to this immensely.

as am I, there was a preview of his new series on bbc2 last week. looks good.

the trailer made me and my dad laugh a great deal. hip hip horray!

I will be furious with myself if I miss that 8)

hmmm not as ace as i hoped it would be

Very "meh".

I quite enjoyed it.

i thought it were gud

Hoping it will warm up as it goes on .... OK, but good in patches rather than the pure class I was hoping for. But then his stuff can be patchy at times and the last one took a bit of time to bed in. Don't let us down Armando, you're a comedy god!

paul i think it's a bit hopeful for armando to read this forum, maybe write him an email?

:D

D'OH!!!!!!!!!!!!! I FUCKING MISSED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!


OOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHH. I'M FURIOUS WITH MYSELF!!!!!!!!!! :shock:  :shock:

In which case it was completely amazing, seminal moment in the history of comedy, they'll never top that, series can only go downhill from here etc etc .......


....on the plus side at least you didn't try and address Armando Ianucci via TEF

apologies paul. i've turned into a forum cunt recently.

i think i'll spend the next week posting nice things to people

No, good spot. Well deserved piss-take. Don't post nice stuff - it's shit and dmr will do you for it

don't worry dave's in france, even he can't get you from there

Oi, and which fascist changed my tag to "Resident Socialist"? How dare you, you running dog lackeys of the imperialist .... oh, bollocks

I thought it was good. Not necessarily spit out my drink laughter but nevertheless made me chuckle.

If it gets better I'll be guffawing like Desperate Dan

The start and the end were ace but I'll agree it dipped a bit in the middle. the 2021 (or whatever year) european footballer of the year bloke was a bit dull. The idea of charlotte chirch puking her self inside out was amusing to start off with but dragged on a bit.

The bit's at the start about blair going mad and staring at bins in baghdad was funny as was the blair cameron bit at the end.

I think it had a pretty good balance between the satire and random craziness but both could be a bit hit and miss. Still thought it was pretty ace and has a fair bit of potential.

Aarrgh I missed it. I'll have to download it.

When Blair started seeing stuff, I found that funny.

Yeah the footballer thing and Beckham weren't too great, but I'm happy to see more original comedy on the telly at least.

I liked the bit where the bloke said "David cameron nailed that line, i pissed myself"
And i liked the idea of that big fat Jamie Oliver

Blair seeing ghosts, the "commentator" tossers being every bit a bunch of nomarks as they have on those Channel 4 "50 best cheap programmes" things, the Blair/Cameron dub, and by and large the older versions of people being spookily convincing were all good. But the thing is with AI, you expect to be pissing yourself within the first 5 minutes, even if some of it is a bit hit and miss, so if you aren't, you're disappointed. Well I was, a bit. But I'm convinced it'll get better and by the third show, the Thursday night damp patch on the sofa will become a regular annoyance to the missus

I've sky plussed it, so haven't watched it yet....looking forward to it though.
I did watch about the first 5 minutes of it, it looked quite funny, slightly Brass Eye-ish, which I loved.

I enjoyed it.  I'll deffo be tuning in again.  :)

this is my fear. i've turned into a dmr style character who's posting is purely to mock or put people down and contribute nothing other than this!

i have more to offer than this alone, although these are my main skills, well honed after many a year ignoring reality and annoying people
