They're on 11oCS, or at least they were last three times I saw it, at the end of the show.

They are a rubbish comedy hip-hop duo and their gimmick is to rap in fake West Country accents. Hence the name "Cyderdelic", Do You See? Because all people in the West Country drink cider all the time. They have seeminly taken up residence on 11OCS, which is nothing more than they deserve.

Ugly buggers as well.

Sounds like the Millenium's answer to The Wurzels...<Sings to himself> Oh I've got a brand new combine harvester and I'll give you the key...

I meant "Seemingly".

Saw one of their 11OCS appearences. Dreadful.

....and now they're winning awards and commissions.....

Toilet. Pan. Flush. Sewage Pipe.

So they were that lot on Comedy Nation, were they? (See "BBC2 awards")

I reckon they take the title of second worst thing on 11ocs. After Gratuious Wood.
And I think they're on it once a week, possibly Thursday. Equally likely, though, are Tuesday and Wednesday.

>Sounds like the Millenium's answer to The Wurzels...

Or, according to some clueless cow on the BBC2 awards: "Like The Wurzels.... on acid!"

*sound of Richard Herring imploding*

These guys make me shudder, I didn't think that sort of behaviour was tolerated nowadayds, much like racism, and chicken molesting

** *'***** **** isn't on next week. Is it the end of the series already, or is it just taking a week off?

Incidentally, that interactive game show with Iain Lee is on next Wednesday night, just in case anyone can be bothered.

I can't.

I will watch it once, but only to mock his fetus-shaped head.

What is the set-up? Does it involve an assault course, like "The Krypton Factor"? Or is it based on complex word-play, like "Blankety Blank"? Or is it just a load of shit, like "Big Break"?

I added a comment to this forum (I promise) and it has diappeared. Mysterious. It was innocuous too, and I think I can remember it word for word:

"Cyderdelic. Uh, no."

I thank you.

It's still there, Nunuf - on the end of the "BBC2 Awards" thread.

I just saw that.

Look at me posting about the place like an incontinent greyhound. Sorry for all confusion.

Quite a frightening idea - that already Cyderdelic could stifle criticism, even on an island of freethought such as this Forum.

It'll happen in time...

Nunuf- leave greyhounds out of this.
Interesting fact Simon Evans appeared on The Krypton Factor- and was disqualified, have no idea why though...
(And Blankety Blank is just as shit as Big Break)

>>>>Incidentally, that interactive game show with Iain Lee is on next Wednesday night,

Yep, interactive in that when Iain Lee comes on screen the audience participates by throwing a large object at the television set....

As for Cyderdelic becoming the *next big thing* (shudders) Is this the proof that one (unfunny) joke wonders can become successful acts? I hope not. We really are heading up the pisser if this is the future.

The judges said they had the advantage because when the Cyder lads came into the office to pitch they made the big boys laugh.

I am beginning to wonder whether or not these commisioners should be the ones made to go through methodic assessments for quality. That or a urine test.

You may be surprised - and maybe even consoled - to learn that the 11 O'Clock team are as dumbfounded as everyone else at the news of Cyderdelic's award...

>The judges said they had the advantage because when the Cyder lads came into the office to pitch they made the big boys laugh.
>
So now you don't even need a good track record to get your own show. Just go into an office and win over the commissioning editors. Now, can anyone see the slight problem with this?......

IMHO you think that things aren't going to get worse in the media industry, then something like this comes along, and takes your breath away.

"The judges said they had the advantage because when the Cyder lads came into the office to pitch they made the big boys laugh."

And the others didn't make them laugh? Why were they up for a comedy award then?

The question isn't "*Who* are Cyderdelic?" but "*Where* are Cyderdelic... Sidney?".

What's your favourite scary movie?

Does anyone remember Harry Enfield doing a spoof of a rap band in about 1990. The punchline being Paul Whitehouse, as one of the band members who hasn't been allowed to speak up to that point, starts chatting in a West Country accent. What you hink o' that moy lovlees?

And then there was that Fast Show sketch with one of two street dudes saying: *No, oi don't kno whaart you're talkin' about,...*

So not only Cyderdelic total shite, but are an extended rip-off of other peoples ideas. Crass.

If new acts weren't allowed to be rubbish rip-offs of older acts, then where would be?

George done:

>So not only Cyderdelic total shite, but are an extended rip-off of other peoples ideas. Crass.

No, cress. Cress!

Do you see what I did there?

>>So not only Cyderdelic total shite, but are an extended rip-off of other peoples ideas. Crass.

"Big A, Little A, Bouncing B..."

Is there a Cyderdelic website, so you lot can go over and abuse them on their home ground?

I kid you not, I just stuck "Cyderdelic" in a search engine, and got 2 results, one of which was:

www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~gunning/wurzgigs.html


The other was a Netscape Online news story that Britney Spears would not now be appearing in Buffy The Vampire Slayer.

Oh, there's a website. And it's as good as you'd expect.

Who's the one who never speaks? The one who does the dancing? Who is he?

Bez.

Hasn't got the talent.
