Finally got around to watching this. A f**kwitted viewer.
Creased up with laughter many times. Also as a Christian I also I found bits of it hilarious about God, creation and Holy Moses.
I try to work out how much the interviewees are told and also how many times she corpses - literally.
Frequently commenting on Our Souls.
Not for me, I can't stand Diane Morgan - no charisma, charm or 'funny bones', and her Philomena Cunk character is particularly shit IMO - just a one trick pony. That kind of interview was done much better by Sasha Baron Cohen as Ali G over 20 years ago.
Sorry to be so negative, but I'm probably in the minority on this one anyway, as it generally seems very popular.
I think she's brilliant.

Couldn't agree more, I think she is utter crap, and I blame it on "Charlie Brooker's Weekly Wipe" where she started out with that other VERY unfunny Barry Shitpeas.
Talk about a load of shit, and her name is so clever, you see because it sounds like ****, which is such a bloody hysterical pun
It is a bit one note - but got a few chuckles from me.

And the Norman Gunston character in Australia in the 70s who did it before anyone.
Her Mandy is a much better creation than this, for me, far subtler and less clunky and obvious. But I can see why some like this, and she has a living to make, ofcourse.

Not much difference to my mind.

I agree she has to make a living but the BBC lean over backwards for her and a few others by giving them 15 minute slot. And I suspect they did it not because its all they have but because they're not strong enough character/ story lines for the 28 minute minimum they demand from everyone else.
I could be wrong but she does seem very well connected with the Beeb.

Have you heard her trailers for Radcliffe and Maconie on 6 Music?
No
Well they're basically Mandy in her droney voice saying stupid things about the programmes. (No examples I'm afraid)
If I was the BBC, I'd be desperate to keep her on. She's clearly a major talent. Who is better?
I don't like Mandy much though, that said.
