Do you think he's available for the teamtalk before the Leeds game?

Brilliant.  Watch Beckham...you can see he's finding it difficult to hold himself together at one point.

Shame the first episode of Horne & Corden was such a let down.  This is so much better.

There were 3 sketches that made me laugh in that:

The burger van
The cock-drawing and
The drunk ex-public school bully at the end

It was awful. lumps is being generous.

What were the studio bits about? It's like they knew the whole thing was a bit weak so they were confronting the viewer with a laughing audience in an attempt to convince them it was funny. That and they were running a bit short for time.

I know of lot of people have been really nasty in slagging off Horne & Corden and I'd just really like to join in. What an unmitigated bag of piss it is. If the sketch show wasn't dead, it should be now.

Being a fat fuck just isn't that funny. Especially when you have a reputation for being such a cunt off screen. Which obviously neither of them do. Obviously not, I just added that for no reason.

It's even more scary that rule 3(b) of sketch shows is that you have your best episode first.

my friend went to the Brits and she said they werent the best hosts - she said alot of the jokes were falling flat and causing a bad atmosphere

The whole show seemed to revolve around Corden being fat.  I reckon he had his top off in at least half the sketches.  The joke wore thin after about 3 or 4 mins.  How they're going to get a whole series out of it is anyone's guess.

And canned laughter should be canned, permanently.

Didn't watch the sketch show, but I find Gavin and Stacey to be the antithesis of humour, so, there you go.

Agreed, it was crap, all of it, complete tosh.

Forgot to say the team talk last night was superb though!  Smithy as a character is class, Corden as a comedian is just a fat (or even fatter) unfunny version of Ricky Gervais - who was also funny in his sketch last night.

Which television programs do you find funny?
