Luckily I'm recording it. So I won't have to watch all of it if I don't like it.

Clary and Stavros still funny if a tad brief smile

Not sure it's edgy, just rehashed from the last time the Tories were on the ropes.

Dire, only saved by the 'older' comedians.

It's so bad, Mrs Moroni has just gone off to bed

Seems bizarre. Like Abbot and Costello coming back to hang out with John Belushi and friends.
Enfield as Stavros was okay. Pretty everything else dire.

I thought Ben Elton’s opening set was good as was Clary but the new acts - god help us if that’s the future of comedy.

Even Jo Brand, who I normally really like, just seemed to be going through the motions.

It's on restart on Ch 4 - so I've just started it.

Ben Elton still fits into his old suit; after 34 years that's impressive !

Enjoy (make sure you watch until the end)
