Started off well but I wasn't overly impressed with the rest.
Still love it though.

First time I heard 90s comedian I was on a flight, on my own, sat next to this mum and her kid. I tried to keep my shit together, but when it got to that bit I was laughing so hard. I must've looked like an absolute weirdo.

Although I prefer the piranhas version :)

The visible otters bit had me in bits when I first saw 'If you prefer a milder comedian....' mans a genius.

I was worried when he reused the visible otters joke, but the way he extended it had me in stitches. Love how he's replaced the sketches with the Iannucci bits too, they're funny as fuck.
Did anyone else notice the credits too; Script Editor - Chris Morris

No I didn't - good choice of script partner though, Morris is great. I'm guessing he's more involved in the Lannucci bits than the body of stand up, you never know though. Does anyone remember The Day Today?? - Chris Morris and Steve Coogan etc. doing a spoof news show back in the mid 90's. Clever satire man.

Off topic. It's a small world; I've shared a stage with someone who Stewart Lee claims to have been orienteering with (Shane from Napalm Death lol)

The Day Toady and Brass Eye are both works of genius.

Yeah - brass eye, forgot about that one :oops: He was the original Dixon Bainbridge in the Boosh too.

I like the close to knuckle stuff, and not in a Frankie Boyle way. Anyone can go around calling everyone a c**t.

Does anyone remember The Jam??

He played guest bass on a couple of songs with for a band called Anaal Nathrakh. My band supported them. We're an extreme metal band based in B'ham so I guess it was inevitable - Shane gets around a lot lol

Whose your band? might be seeing Anaal in Cardiff soon.

Jam, Brasseye, The Day Today and Alan Partridge are probably the best comedy that was ever on TV.

Blue Jam, the radio series, is even better than the TV series. Absolutely brilliant.

Preferred If you want a milder comedian to 90's comedian tbh

Both were good though!
