I starting watching the new series of The Fast Show last night, I was always a big fan but you know, I turned it off. I guess for me it belongs to another time. I didn't find it funny anymore
The pair of Fast Show specials was pretty good, although Swiss seems to have developed a posher voice since the originals and the BBC3 spin-off show. The big disappointment for me was the lack of Mark Williams* and hence no "suit you, sir!" tailors.
On the other hand, the latest incarnations of the Cheesy Peas ads, Bob Fleming taking off Coogan & Brydon's "The Trip" and the Ron Manager version of the infamous Keys/Gray Sky Sports incident were all top-drawer, plus Rowley Birkin QC was on classic form. Which was nice.
