I’d recommend the channel this came from
Loads of little bits like this.
I know @scotty will appreciate this. I wish Bellamy’s People had a wider appreciation.
I’ve succeeded on that front with at least one person, me ma.
We’ve been watching it today and she thinks it is great.
I find that like its inspiration Down The Line, it gets better with repeat experiences.

Have you not met the face of a wild pig in the forest ?

This is from the couchtripper YouTube channel.
How ghly recommended for fans of UK comedy esoterica.
I am of course, a big fan of Iannuci’s idy of work.
This is proper out there and has some pretty famous people in it. Robert Webb and Steven Mangan both appear, but my fave is Alan Ford, who basically died all scenes as Brick Top.

Love 2031 Ant and Dec.
Went to see Alfie Moore on Saturday night at The Berry. For those who don’t know, he’s an ex copper who has a R4 comedy show called It’s a Fair Cop. This show was a departure from the excellent radio show and he was very funny. Nice bloke too, came out into the foyer after the show to meet people.
