Well done Dave and stonked - nice work. And congrats to Park Bench for getting to the recorded. (Andy if you did get the RbC e-mail congrats! - can't work out if you were joking about getting any sort of e-mail or not).

It made the recording, then hit the cutting room floor.

Bum.

What was it PB?

It was a poor attempt at humour.

No email for me.

Probably due to my poor attempts at humour

Well done JD!

Do we have some sort of league table now? I think Steve Sunshine is right up there with Judgement Dave and Viv in Champions League spots.

Mike.

Does that mean I get to meet Alan Hansen?

Nothing for me. Well done to all of you that were successful at any point this series. I'll look forward to more opportunities to not get recorded in February.

After Alan Hansen announced he was retiring from Match of the Day, I actually thought he should launch his own range of pills to compete with Viagra, and call them "Bored Rigid".

The man's voice could curdle milk.

PS This made me smirk a lot.

Two one liners this week for me, think I've finally nailed what I was doing wrong, doing THREE SODDING LINES. Two sketches this series along with two cut sketches and a one liner they forgot to credit me for t'other week. Alan sugar in hot water / makes him some kind of syrup.

I guessthat's europa league form at least? Few years ago it'd be intertoto so im still not happy, I've got a taste for those successful emails now and anything less makes me chew my own lips off in self frustration. BE MORE FUNNY BRIAN (my brain is called...you get it).

Out of interest do people generally find rejected newsjack stuff finds a home at newsrevue / treason show? I've only just started tweaking/twerking some of my unsuccessful NJ scripts for sending to them, but I've never seen / written for / harassed the producers of those shows.

Hey all,

Well done to everyone who got sketches / material in this season!

What do people do between series of Newsjack to keep their funny bones warm? I know about Newsrevue but wondered if there was anything else out there (either topical based or no)

Thanks all - and see you next season!

Wikipedia owners have expressed shock and dismay after it was discovered that hundreds of fake accounts have been set up to add misleading information to the site. According to Wikipedia content verifier, Nigel Eve, there hasn't been a bigger global conspiracy since John Lennon shot JFK in an episode of Dallas.

Had the same experience this series. But as I say when only half my students turn up for the lesson, I'm a class half full kinda guy.
