Do you think Jonesey is nicking your ideas and then selling them onto BBC comedians?
Or Fish?
Very likely - which is why they added in that transparent nonsense about it being recorded 3 months ago.
Yeah, it was a brilliant show although I lost sight of whether or not I was really laughing at the gag or just gleefully gurgling along with a bunch of stuff I agreed with.

Watched it twice yesterday. I never do that, loved it. Now in my mind Stewart Lee is an older fatter funnier Thorn. Who choose standup comedy rather than online bulletin boards.

There was a young Thorn on that 'finding a coherent teenager' debating programme, too. He gets about in time, doesn't he.

watched this. Was good. His delivery was what impressed me the most. Almost hypnotic. The use of repetition, the gradual change in tone. The end, where he's talking about houses of sand was a pretty powerful bit of television.

I finally got around to watching this weeks episode on the Wii (Religion episode).
Excellent stuff. I haven't laughed out loud as much at any episode as I did at this one. I thought the bit about the guy coming to his door with "Jesus is the answer, what is the question" was absolute genius.

I had a disorienting moment during the Religion episode, when Stewart mentioned that he'd found a book which clarified the Muslim position on dogs, and held up a copy of 'Animals in Islamic Tradition'. Which we published.

Yeah, this fucking stuff is everywhere it seems. i can't turn on the radio now without one of our fucking authors gobbing off about current affairs or some shit. And now the Douglas Adams estate is attempting to sue us because one of our books is called 42, which is a number he had dibs on, apparently.
