What is this fucking obsession with Lee and fucking Herring? They were about as funny as a bag of fucking cancer, which is why they haven't been seen on the telly in years. Get over it. I'm sure they have.

Not being on telly for years is hardly evidence of not being very funny, Imelda my dear. It just doesn't work like that. Sorry, I don't mean to destroy your dreams.

You've destroyed nothing. They weren't funny. Sorry to break it to you like that, but even if they were still on every fucking day, they wouldn't be funny. Now fuck off, you patronising shitcunt.

I would like to say that Lee & Herring were very very funny and made me laugh to the point of (nearly) pissing my pants on many occasions.
The fact that they aren't on tele anymore is one of the reasons why life is such a shitter.
In an ideal world L&H would be on Friday nights for an hour and Danny Baker (another thread nearby) would be doing 6:06 Saturday evenings instead of Richard Littlebrain.

Why doesn't it happen? Why?

I really like practically everything Lee and Herring have done. Stew Lee is a brilliant standup, and they've made the only British comedy series that still makes me laugh despite me seeing it over and over again.

I'm afraid to say I thought bits of TMWRNJ were a bit rubbish. It had lots of good moments but I didn't feel that it got into its stride, or really came together as a programme, until later on. Stil, knocks most of the other tripe into a cocked hat, eh?

Richard Herring isn't the one giving comedy a bad name, it's Imelda Davis. The sort of person who calls Smeraldina a 'shitcunt' obviously hasn't gotten past toilet humour yet.

That's right, and don't you ever forget it. The fact you use the word "gotten" implies you are either ESN, or American, and therefore not entitled to an opionion in either regard.

Yes, Richard, people who don't find Lee and Herring very funny tend not to be funny themselves, but then we're not being paid for it.

As a matter of fact, I did quite like Fist of Fun, and This Morning had its moments too (badly scheduled and overlong, yes, but I've seen much worse). "Speccy Four Eyes" asked for somebody to write something interesting and, as this site seems to regard all comedy as a poor second to anything Lee & Herring have ever done (presumably because, as you're the only comedians who acknowledge the Corpses' existance, they think it pays to suck up), I thought I'd light the blue touch paper and retire.

Now fuck off, the lot of yez.

An opionion?

Prefer red onions myself. Tasty and add a dash of colour to any dish.

Imelda, you are clearly illiterate and therefore you are not entitled to an OPINION.

I'd rather be a twat than a fuckless imbecile with no prospects. Which sums up most of what the contributors of this site seem to be about.

Now, where's that fucking donkey...

No. She just had the audacity to have an opinion which someone patronised her for. So she stood up for herself and then people decided to have a go at her. Business as usual, then. Keep going Imelda. I don't feel particularly fighty tonight but I'm there in spirit! (Have especially found GB to be a deliciously thick little twit-ette, so do try and have a nibble).

Exactly. And at least I replied. The foul language is also deliberately unrepresentative - but it seems to be the common tongue in here.

Cheers, Poopa!

And for my next trick, I will wind the mongs up by denouncing The Young Ones as childish, puerile shit. (Wasn't that supposed to be the idea?)

Is it? Calling people 'shitcunts' at the slightest provocation? I didn't think any regulars here do that. And if it is 'the common tongue' - I never thought it was - and you don't like it then why use that language yourself? Because to me it just seemed a cheap throwaway insult that added nothing to your point.

Argh. The 'Weddoes'. Most bitterly, bitterly boring band of the universe. Aural equivalent of a bedsit with a dead grandad in it. And he's wearing spongy burgundy slippers.

What a feelin'!
