        bbc4 is the tits

        (in other news – we just sacked the bloke that set up bbc3 – he was a proper tosser and tried to cancel our free thursday night drinks*)

        *this wasnt the reason he was sacked but nobody has any sympathy for someone that tries to ban boozing during the week because he cant handle it.

          you’re comparing the development of uk comedy across all media over a period of 30 years, to a single channel over 2 years…

          🙂

          monkey dust, mighty boosh, the smoking room are all class and groundbreaking in their own ways.

          ideal and nighty nighty etc are ok

          plus loads of others i’ve forgotten…

          those were various seperate examples, not one continuous strand!

          wasnt mighty boosh first on BBC2 pre BBC3?

          monkey dust was alrite, but hit and miss. never seen the smoking room so cant comment. i loved nighty night.

          BBC3 is undoubtedly a force for good in british comedy (and the BBC in general). as is channel4.

          just disagree with you it the best thing ever to have happened.

          mongo – if cityboy news is your thing, its a good read. its cutting back on non city news under the new editor and cos its been hit by City AM and the quality press being more serious about business news

              he hadnt got us a decent comission in 3 months. sadly my mate has just told him an idea that might make him loads of cash and the fucker has walked off with it.

              (boys to girls was one of our programmes last night – it was awful.)

                    But Fixxy, how the fuck did it get past being a mindfart in some gayboys head?

                    Tell your bosses they fucked up, tell them the Great British Public said so.

                      what was it?

                      was it some kind of ‘reality’ nonsense? if so, more fool you for watching it!
                      BBC2 @ 9.00 was where it was at!

                      thats nice of him to walk off with it fixxy..

                        Course I didn’t watch it.

                        The trailers said it all:

                        ‘Imagine if failed male boy bands were given one last chance……..AS GIRLS!’

                        Jesus fucking Christ

                          what a pile of wank, these people should be shot. seriously.

                          you TV types need to stick a bit less up your nose fixxy… its clearly not helping the ‘creative process’

                              that is the diametric opposite of what i would have thought! respeck!

                              check it next week, its colour footage of britain in 1925. its interesting if you like a bit of social history..

                                Haha. In fact, that’s another reason to pay your license fee. Live sports coverage on BBCi (red button).

                                /me makes note to watch BBC2 next Tuesday night.

                                  one of my housemates through a massive strop the other night cos he was ‘sick of you two watching football’ (meaning me and other housemate watching mondays MOTD, first all weekend!)

                                  he pointed out it was his TV and then threw a huge strop and took it upstairs in a huff.

                                  i have only just stopped laughing at him.

                                    okay ill pass on the message jack

                                    I only ever come up with ideas they dont want to use.

                                    My last one being a programme that recreated famous news pictures with the people in them being reunited on the spot the photo was taken years later.

                                    the format could work with something was important as a war time picture or something as fluffy as a streaker at a sports game.

                                    (they said no – I got asked to work in development a few times – they are all rubbish at drinking so i said no)
