8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown - Series 26

I liked the most recent one of the current series of 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown (Series 26, Episode 3, shown on Friday). I find this show can be rather hit and miss these days, as is usually the case when a format is repeated for years - but when on form it can still deliver some decent laughs.

Alasdair Beckett-King had some of the funniest moments IMO. I think he'd been on Mock the Week ages ago. I guess he'll appear on WILTY? and Taskmaster eventually, as they often tend to complete the set (like the others in that episode: Guz Khan, Joe Wilkinson, Katherine Ryan and Jon Richardson).

Still never miss it as it is one of the few that has proper adult humour, and not dumbed down woke so called "comedy"

I wouldn't quite call it adult humour. Childish yes.

Name three shows that specialise in so-called 'woke' comedy?
I cannot think of any.

I didn't say "specialise" or "so called woke"

None then?

Don't agree whatsoever

Whatever I say you will disagree with, so there is no point in me saying anything 😉
