Watching it too. Seen it before. Bewilderness was slightly better I think. Adam and Joe were great, I love their Tetris song. I also liked Pokémon. Bill Hicks is my favourite stand-up.

The Chaucer Pubbe Gagge

Three fellowes wenten into a pubbe,
And gleefullye their handes did rubbe,
In expectatione of revelrie,
For 'twas the houre known as happye.
Greate botelles of wine did they quaffe,
And hadde a reallye good laffe.
'Til drunkennesse held full dominione,
For 'twas two for the price of one.
Yet after wine and meade and sac,
Man must have a massive snack,
Great pasties from Cornwalle!
Scottishe eggs round like a balle!
Great hammes, quaile, ducke and geese!
They suck'd the bones and drank the grease!
(One fellowe stood all pale and wan,
For he was vegetarianne)
Yet man knoweth that gluttonie,
Stoketh the fyre of lecherie,
Upon three young wenches round and slye,
The fellowes cast a wanton eye.
One did approach, with drunkene winke:
"'Ello darlin', you fancy a drink?",
Soon they caught them on their knee,
'Twas like some grotesque puppettrie!
Such was the lewdness and debaucherie -
'Twas like a sketch by Dick Emery!
(Except that Dick Emery is not yet borne -
So such comparisonne may not be drawn).
But then the fellowes began to pale,
For quail are not the friende of ale!
And in their bellyes much confusione!
From their throats vile extrusione!
Stinking foule corruptionne!
Came spewinge forth from droolinge lippes,
The fetide stenche did fille the pubbe,
'Twas the very arse of Beelzebubbe!
Thrown they were, from the Horne And Trumpette,
In the street, no coyne, no strumpet.
Homeward bounde, must quicklie go,
To that ende - a donkey stole!
Their handes all with vomit greased,
(The donkey was not pleased,
And threw them into a ditche of shite!)
They all agreed: "What a brillant night!"

- Bill Bailey. Dunno what tour.

[na§tee]

ha! what a great song! i love him!
"the larger chunkier kitkat - this, truly, is a snack worthy of allah himself"
"[weed] is going to be declassified to a lower status of drug - that of a llaaarrrrggeee onion".
ha!
i also love peter kay. i know all of britain does but that man in a genius.
one tour he was talking about how your mum always wakes you up about 9 hours early to go to the airport before you go on holiday - so accurate!

Peter Kay? The Pheonix Nights guy? You are the only person I know that doesn't find him boring.

Yeah, when he's talking about family he's so talking about my family. EMERGENCY CHURRS! Especially about how mums never eat at family gatherings. Hah.

[na§tee]

ace; are you joking?! those people who find him "boring" have never seen him do stand-up then! he is official the most successful stand-up in britain, or something..

"i don't know why we have this great relationship with america... we're a bunch of stoned, illiterate, wheezy, shagging bastards."

[Freebasser]

Haha emergency chair.

Everyone I know finds his jokes dull and predictable. Maybe its a northern thing. I find all of his stand-up routines to be infinitly forgettable.

[na§tee]

that's a bit harsh but hey - to each their own!
"milton keynes - satan's lay-by!"

[na§tee]

"what other kinds of rain are there??! purple? acid?!"
"no dog on end'uv lead!"
"did you ever make rose water? i bet avon lady were shitting herself!"
