I was lucky enough to get 4 tickets to the recording of Brian Blessed's episode. Absolutely wonderful, a night out to remember forever! We were fortunate that we were all in the front row. 2 hours after the recording started the producer had to stop it, because there was a queue of taxis outside the studio for people who had booked them in advance. My ears are still ringing. Best. Episode. Ever.

It’s a shame that I didn’t live in London or wherever he’s the MP for. After his appearance on that episode I genuinely would’ve voted for him. He wasn’t thin-skinned like most MPs: he could not only take a joke but dish it out too. And I respect that.

@Bhalforii3 роки тому
Boris has been playing the game for a long time. Purposefully messed up hair every morning, little stumbles here, weird rants, humiliating photo ops... everything to make him seem goofy and unthreatening. Actually he created a persona to ward off any criticism and move easily into power. Just like the clown emperor over the pond it worked like a charm. Wanna implement something unpalatable? Just do or say a silly thing the same day and the criticism of the first thing will be drowned. The masses and the media eats it up and his friends in politics supports him all the way because they know its an act and they all win. You know its been so successful that he could be honest about the act tomorrow and no one would believe him.

@@conslin1147 The problem is Julian Clary's act is 100% camp and gay innuendo- which was fine in the 80s when he was young and it hadn't been done as blatantly on TV before- but doesn't fit in well with a news quiz.

1:15:55 That might be one of the funniest things anybody has ever said on British tv. No idea how I've missed it. I've watched every episode and all of the compilations so many times. The hanging noose joke right before it.....i've seen a thousand times...... How in the world have I not seen the sex registry joke. My god. That's better than both Jimmy Carr's gloryhole joke And Sean's "not spitting on Miles during sex" joke on countdown. Jesus christ. I know Paul is one of the quickest and funniest alive....but surely they edited it to make it look seamless and instant. How in the world could he come up with it that fast. That is so damn funny.

I would have loved it to know that Elvis toured London before he went back to the US. It just did not happen, sadly. I understand he had a fear of flying. Obviously, when enlisted he managed to cope. Maybe he just did not fancy a visit to the UK. That makes me said because I love Elvis.
@susi-emily5 місяців тому
I understood Elvis' lack of leaving the US, other than when he was enlisted, was down to Tom Parker. As he was an illegal immigrant in the US, had he left, as he would have been expected to do as Elvis' manager, he'd not have been allowed back in.
