Comic Relief

BroomBurner

I'm loving this year's Comic Relief. They've gone back to basics, with their "do something funny for Comic Relief" motto this year.

So far, I've LOVED the dancing the competition, the duo that did the Dirty Dancing routine were brilliant! Unfortunately, I missed the Webb lad from Mitchell and Webb doing Michael Jackson, but it should be on this Friday.

Currently watching Comic Relief does The Apprentice. Looks entertaining!

Patsy Palmer (Bianca) fighting with the Ultimo Bra woman who's always on You're Fired was great fun to watch. Zero sympathy for Bianca, but at least she didn't walk in the end. I reckon Wossie will get fired tomorrow for acting the goat most of the time.

Yeah, though Ross had a lot of good ideas, he was a bit of a toddler. I was shouting at the screen about how to market those toys though, through cereals! Give one away free and encourage the kids to buy the belt to go with them. Ah, I'm wasted here lol

I thought maybe Jack Dee could be gone, he didn't really do much. His job seemed to be to keep Ross under control.

I watched last night and TBH i much prefer when they make the celebs organise an event or like last time open a pop up shop - that way they are actually making money for the charity while making the programme.
I hope Jonathan Ross gets the boot - he was behaving like a child and playing up for the cameras but i didn't like either the boys or girls idea.

I'm watching it tonight. I keep missing bits of the show because every so often they put on these depressing scenes of hunger and illness. When I switch the channel and go back i've missed loads of the comedy. Why ruin a good show?

I'm going to hell

I've downloaded the sketches,

Frankly they are terrible.

Ricky Gervais, the fat guy from Gavin and Stacey who aint funny and the Little Britain sketches are terrible.

The big names involved allow for a reduction in the quality of the material, well thats what it seems to be, I know its for a worthy cause but it all seems lacking in substance.

That guy from Gavin and Stacey is unbelievably unfunny.

Only saw bits and pieces of tonight's show, the bits I saw were really, really poor.

Actually thought it was quite good.

Robert Webb- absolute hero! His Flashdance routine was without doubt the funniest, most original thing in the whole comic relief schedule. First time I actually LOL'd at something on TV in a long time!

Harpie, I loved Webb's Flashdance too! So glad he won. His face during it is absolutely priceless. Brilliant piece of comic entertainment.

Harpie

He was just hilarious to watch, love the stuff he does with Mitchell as well...Best bit of the routine was where he was on his back, trying to spring up unsuccessfully...Without doubt deserved to be the winner

I really hope you meant this in the essence of sarcasm.
