Wow, how sad must your life be? That Transit hovercraft bit had me struggling to breath at times, one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen on telly. Childish? Yup biggrin
That suggests one of us has had a sad life but I'm not convinced it's me, TBH...
My thoughts exactly. "Struggling to breathe" over somethig "childish"? Blimey.

Except Phoenix Nights was comedy genius.
Totally +1
Another vote from me. Phoenix Nights was written by Peter Kay and Dave spikey though. Without being spoon fed a good script, McGuinness is woeful.
