Sounds about right to me.

-SELF-AGGRANDIZING ANECDOTE ALERT-

I was wandering around London killing time before a meeting and I bumped into Kevin Eldon, who was eating a sandwich outside Talkback. I'd met him a couple of times before (he'd starred in a pilot I'd written a few years previously). He was thoroughly charming and cool, especially as he doesn't really know me from Adam. We chatted about stuff and he told me he was working with on a new sketch show with the writers of Father Ted. That, of course, was Big Train.

When he and Sally Phillips popped up onscreen after a sketch I had written on Comedy Nation, I got a buzz thinking my material wa sin such good company.

A lot of Kevin Eldon's stuff for Comedy Nation was brilliant. It's a shame the Twelve Ronnies didn't get an airing.

I always imagine him in "real life" as like a small gerbil recently emerged into the light, blinking furiously and not quite 'up' on what's happening around him.

No doubt, he was nothing like that at all.

When he did my pilot he was very laid back and reserved. But he did some great ad libs in the recording.

Ah, celebs. So full of that... celebrity essence.







(please, someone, make the obvious joke.)

Um...am I being stoopid?

Probably not.

I was expecting someone to say that we all know what comedians are full of, nudge, nudge, wink, wink, know what I mean?

That's the vegetable.

Me?

which vegetable?
