Must admit, the keyboard chap was funny.

Can someone explain what that sketch about the bloke, walking into the pub, wearing the suit and the hat, was all about?

He predicts peoples PIN's... 2468... 3579...

IMHO, he's the only performer/actor/comedian in the whole show with any personality.

He guesses people's pin numbers, but this was set to Tom Robinson Band's "2 4 6 8 Motorway." And the pin numbers came out as "2 4 6 8" and "3 5 7 9."

edit: Bugger. That's going to spoil it for people.

I liked the way Asbo Pin walked.

When I posted I didn't see your post so there. *sticks out tongue*

p.s. A minute difference.
 

And you gave it far more explanation anyway.

I thought it showed a lot of promise, and was a bit 'fresher' than other recent BBC Three sketch show attempts.

My problem with the first episode was that a couple of the young actors didn't seem to have the natural talent needed to bring out the comedy that was in the scripts. I'm not going to name names (as they might be reading) but there was one particular sketch which I thought had a good premise but was totally ruined by the actors performing it.

Then again, I think Luke Gell (the camp Two Pints guy) was great - him and the Chip and Pin guy have good sitcom careers ahead of them I predict.

Get your glass ball out Mark!

But yes, enjoyable and good fun!

Ohh, so that's what he's been in.

Aarrggh! I've seen that sketch before somewhere. Can't remember for the life of me where. Maybe it was at the Comedy Unit "Rough Cuts" show or something.

You might have seen it in the pilot, "Spacehopper". That Carl feller who plays Asbo Pin is an excellent performer with bags of charisma, but I just don't get that particular character. Maybe as a quick one off, but they keep on repeating it...

Where's the funny?
