I have and I will go on a lot about the quality of British television. Most Brits will bemoan it as decreasing in quality, but like anything there are gems amongst the dirt.
One show I have come to love is called Have I Got News for You which has been running for some twenty years. It basically a show where people mock and criticise the events of the week. It's what the NZ show 7 Days is based on. I think it's brilliant, funny and accurate. For the last nine years it has had a guest host, this came about because the previous host Angus Deayton had to resign. It came out that he had been hosting prostitutes in hotel rooms and snorting cocaine. Below are the best bits from the show that followed these revelations...
Good stuff!
ReplyDeleteBritish TV is miles beter than most of the American crap we get fed. Your example has been an icon of brilliance on TV, just as "I'm sorry, I haven't a clue" was the radio equivalent. Get a copy if you can. Brilliant.
ReplyDeleteHa ha ha. I laughed out loud!
