    Hi there - just looking for feedback (good or bad) as to what you think of my clip. I'm trying out a 'character' for a bit of a laugh so if you have any constructive feedback, fire ahead. Thanks.

    Seriously? It's been done by loads of people ,PJ Gallagher and Brendan O' Carroll are the two that spring to mind.Try something else ,this is irritating rather than funny.

    I enjoyed that, made me laugh. The voice is very funny and the aul-one-isims are funny too "x-factory" and what not.

    Only thing I would have said to make it better would be not use simon cowell as he's not particularly funny in the clips, maybe try and have a lot more interaction with the "guest", find an interview where perhaps there's a bit of flirting going on between interviewer and interviewee and tailor it to that, or even where there's a lot of banter between the interviewer and interviewee and make it with the oul one.

    Funny though. It's been done before, but funny is funny, origionality is in the humour and jokes you make out of it, no doubt the character is funny despite similar being done before.

    Oh, and internet forums for advice, 90% will be "That's bleedin shoite! no t!ts in it or nothin!"

    Now that's constructive criticism! I agree that the style of interview i should be doing should change i.e more interactive. This was the first one, so it was very much trial and error. Glad you found it funny though. There's a bit of a following for her on Facebook. I laughed at your comment about Internet Forums being 90% negative!! It's funny because here it's been fairly negative but on Facebook it's alot more positive!

    Anyway, thanks again for your opinion!

    That's because forums are generally more anonymous.

    I laughed at the clip. The problem with this is is that anyone could replicate it so you have to depend on your ability to come up with good scenarios rather than the voice or format.
