Anyone listen?

Laugh out loud funny in parts, but I think I need to hear next week's to pass judgement. Rufus Hound was particularly good, and David Mitchell had a top rant about 'the internet'.

I'm so used to edited TV the live format seems a bit odd, but there are some good lines in there so far. Maybe they're settling in better now smile

Does Rufus Hound get his material from PH? I'm sure I've read his motorway rant before hehe

I liked the bit about the 30 mph v' 40 mph speeding ad.

Good rant about Twitter this week, and Charlie concedes how shallow and empty his life is.

I'd like to listen to this, as Charlie Brooker's stuff is usually pretty good, but I can't as:

a) I'm on ship and iPlayer would eat up the bandwidth on the 'net, disrupting everybody elses' porn browsing emailing and general internet.

b) The ISP for the satellite 'net service is Norwegian, so I can't watch/listen to iPlayer as it thinks I'm in Norway.

Noggie douchebags.


EDIT: It turns out only iPlayer TV is UK-exclusive - iPlayer radio is international. I may risk listening to the low-bandwidth version.

My statement about Norwegians still stands.

Just caught the second in the series. The twitter rant had me in stitches while I was trying to get to sleep. Lee Mack is funnier live than he is on stage.

Warming to Josie long. Maybe the only female comedian I find funny.

I found her completely unfunny, not even a titter. What really annoyed me in this weeks show was that guy in the audience with the really loud laugh who was intent on being heard.
