I was amused to find that Harry Hill's skit on Vera's coffin actually garnered some complaints from people who apparently think it's tasteless to mock the funeral of a made up character.
 

Harry rules, I once went to watch TV Burp filmed.

He did his own warm up, and chatted with the audience.

He even spoke to me to acknowledge we both had glasses, it was like being knighted.

The show is very funny, and the reductionist style of humour is rare, surreal and fantastic.

Unbelievably it's better than his old channel 4 show thta was also fab.

The ASDA of satire.
"Thoughtcrime was not a thing that could be concealed forever. You might dodge successfully for a while, even for years, but sooner or later they were bound to get you."� Which is exactly what happened to Winston Smith. His rebellion was not one that was foolish and too outspoken. He silently tried to defeat the Party for his personal happiness, and in the end it cost him everything he had fought for, and his love for Julia. He had learned to love Big Brother, which was his ultimate fear when trying to live a life of individuality. The Party had defeated him.

Yea it might just have been the best tv burp yet.

It was so clever getting all those stars to say ear cataracts.

Even Ricky Gervais and we all know he don't need the money.
 

I missed the first 10 minutes. What did I miss?


Don't say the first 10 fucking minutes !
