    Same with Frankie Dettori. On the card his name is L (Lanfranco) Dettori. There could be other jockeys called Tony or Anthony McCoy and AP is to distinguish him.

    he is brilliant. much funnier than almost all the other comedians from Ireland put together. and no script.


    he also has a physics/maths degree so he could teach science!

    There was more flow to that interview than most of Tubridy's all the same.

    Nope, he's a scouser.

    The only scouser worth mentioning. :D

    His Mother was Irish, she died when he was 11.

    The footballer? He is from Moreton, Merseyside.

    Edit : Am I imagining things or have the audience not laughed yet?

    I'm kind of expecting Ed Byrne to pop up from behind the sofa. I don't think anybody with as little talent as him has ever had such a long a career in showbiz by hanging on to the coattails of a more superior colleague.

    Ted: "Dougal, you don't think I upset those Chinese people earlier"

    Dougal: "I don't know Ted, it's like the time we put on that variety show and you did that impression of Stephen Hawking"

    Ted: "He was the last person you'd expect to turn up, that was a million to one shot. God he can move fairly fast in that wheelchair when he's angry"

    Speaking of Goldilocks


    AP - talks too slow


    Vogue, Alesha and Dara - talk too fast


    If guests could speak at a pace somewhere in the middle, that would be just about right.

    each to their own. I just think there is a niche in the comedy market for him if he goes for it........he might not be successful though!

    Space is fcuking amazing. I wish I had O'Brian's or Brian Cox's ability to understand it properly. Sir Patrick Moore was a kind of hero of mine when I was growing up.

    This always gets me:

    Seems to be reflected in the thread.

    I watched the AP McCoy bit, but couldn't think of a single thing to post.

    He is an intelligent guy and funnyish but he’s overrated. A lot of his intelligent jokes I can appreciate but it’s not as thought-provoking as he or his audience thinks.
