That must have been recorded a while back because Alan Davies is with Kirsten O'Brien the woman from CBBC.

It was filmed a few months ago. Note Davies's hair.
But why was his girlfriend kept in so much, looking lovingly at her fella? I blame the editor....

Do you think there is a profession to be made of being a comedian's girlfriend? Catherine Porter must really like her headliners, Alan Davies, Rich Hall...

Perhaps the extensive coverage of her is because the programme doubled as an advert for her services. She is very attractive though.

Weird thing in last night's show...

The joke that he was doing about the pants in the laundry basket is very similar to a 'humorous' game a friend and I came up with last year... except when we did it, it was much funnier.

We posted the rules and some other shite on the net through no other reason than at the time we found it hysterical and were playing it to relieve boredom when we had no money to go out.

The bastard's ripping off my stuff!

PS. Yes; there are a million typos, but I didn't type the majority of it and that's my excuse!

Ailie I am so intrigued by you.

>Ailie I am so intrigued by you.


Why?!
Do you have ICQ.
I'm buggering about on that just now if you want to chat...

Wait a minute...

It's just occurred to me that you're taking the piss.

I'm a bit slow today. I went to bed late last night.

If only I did have ICQ. I think I am in need of a little direction on how to balance pants on a stick in a competent manner.

>I think I am in need of a little direction on how to balance pants on a stick in a competent manner.


Make no mistake; it is a game which requires a high level of skill.
They should make it part of the PE curriculum.
It was invented by unfit people for fit and unfit people alike, so even the PE serial skivers could join in...

We put the stuff on the net because people wanted to know how to play when they saw us having such a blast. (no joke)

Any game which can make you hyperventilate with laughter has to be a classic.

>They should make it part of the PE curriculum.

Would stretching be required?


>Any game which can make you hyperventilate with laughter has to be a classic.

Let me get this right, are you meant to hyperventilate into the pants?

Oh no!
The pants should be firmly on your head, and away from the nose and the mouth, so as to aid breathing...

>The pants should be firmly on your head, and away from the nose and the mouth

Even if they are scented with Vics Vapuor rub and proove to be a something of a stimulant?

>Even if they are scented with Vics Vapuor rub and proove to be a something of a stimulant?

You don't need stimulants.
The game is a natural high.

A natural high-leg! Oh I love my own humour...

I am now going home.

Take time to ponder tonight on what makes a grown man (Alan Davies) steal a student's underwear related game.

Ailie - checked out the site - have you thought of official sponsorship? Channel 5 might be interested as well...

>have you thought of official sponsorship? Channel 5 might be interested as well...


Al - You are a genius! This was practically MADE to be sponsored by channel 5.

Maybe I should send them a proposal...
That could actually be quite amusing, although I don't think they'd even consider it unless it in some way incorporated nakedness. If the players were naked, I'm sure it'd be a hit with execs.

Now Ailie don't blame Channel 5 execs for your naturist urges.

I was gobsmacked when I heard Davies saying pants repeatedly to get a laugh. Didn't Chris Evans (the "guvnor") tire of that a few years ago?

Ok, I have his Urban Trauma video which my friend found used for a quid in Blockbuster. So I will be submitting it to a scientific analysis tonight to see if he is good or a lazy comedy slag.

Fugg that - just watch the damn thing.

Well, my "scientific analysis" was going to consist of watching it. But after 10 minutes, I found I couldn't be bothered any more, which isn't very promising.
I should try to watch the whole thing before I write him off as a stand-up, though.

There's some great observations about cats. Persevere Dr!

What about how the pens in banks never seem to work?? And then they put them on chains to stop people stealing them!! It's just a crazy world out there!

OK, I've watched it - the cat stuff is good. He's got quite a good range of funny voices. He does say "poo" a few times too often to get cheap laughs, though.
Slag factor: 4 out of 10. Acceptable.

>OK, I've watched it - the cat stuff is good. He's got quite a good range of funny voices.

Yes he was born to be an actor really.

He does say "poo" a few times too often to get cheap laughs, though.

Don't we all?

>Slag factor: 4 out of 10. Acceptable.

Are we talking about the audience here?

I guess so: four out of ten audience members were slags, which is deemed acceptable by our researcher. It all makes perfect sense.

lol! I like you Peter.

Do I get a lovely surprise? And some chocolate?

My eggs aren't free Peter. And surrogate mothering is extra.

Okay, just the chocolate then?

:o)
