Probably been done to death already but couldnt see a thread Just finished watching it after all the hype. Was pretty good. Better than the usual period drama pish the BBC put out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meanmistermustard Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 (edited) Been mentioned here a few times but Taskmaster is brilliant. Episode 5 of Series 7 is the funniest thing I've seen on tv for a long time. Edited September 27, 2018 by meanmistermustard 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Episode 5 of Series 7 is the funniest thing I've seen on tv for a long time. Agreed, I love that show. I still remember an earlier series where the contestants came out of the caravan to find a telescope on a tripod and the task instructions pinned to a board about twenty yards away. Everybody struggled to read the instructions through the telescope, but as Greg Davies pointed out afterwards, nobody had actually said they had to do that! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pittsburgh phil Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Bob Mortimer was tremendous on Taskmaster, tremendous on Would I Lie To You, and obviously with Vic Reeves. Not telly I know but he's upping the bar on the Athletico Mince podcast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Michael Palin in North Korea has been really interesting. Obviously what he's allowed to see/do is tightly controlled but found it fascinating all the same. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really disliked it. From the reviews, i see i'm in the minority, but it wasn't nearly as funny or clever as it thought it was. I watched the first two episodes and hated it. It was much too pleased with itself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a wonderful relationship between the five of them. Rhod Gilbert's continued efforts to try and annoy Greg Davies are wonderful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSU Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 16 hours ago, Hampden Diehard said: Watching Mock the Week.....seriously unfunny and should be dumped. It's the sort of show I watch occasionally when I'm surfing iPlayer and have no expectation of laughing at any point during proceedings. It used to be interesting to hear Frankie Boyle say something outrageous while Russell Howard would fawn and blink and Andy Parsons would say obvious things in an unusual tone. Interesting that they shook things up by changing the theme tune, like that's what the problem with the show was. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still watch the repeats on Dave when it was still reasonably funny. The most annoying thing though is when somebody makes a joke and Dara O'Brahoweverhespellshisname picks it up and batters it to death. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’d also have Frankie say something funny but brutal and have to try and follow up. Folk would go on once or twice and never return, now it’s much friendlier apparently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
