Him being stoned was magnificent.

Good episode. Great to see ... thingy, shouting at the annoying neighbour. Michael. That's the one.
Ah yes, the guy from My Parents Are Aliens . . . only joking as I do remember him from a lot of Armando's stuff . . . "Everyone gets tired".
He's brilliant!

Well I only know him from Lead Balloon, so don't worry.
Did you watch The Thick of It, Azza?
If he's in it, then evidently not.
But, but, it's about politics. You like them, innit!
Yeah, but it was also on at odd times and in a style of humour which is too modern and not funny for my tastes.
(Also, a piss-poor attempt at a modern Yes Minister.)
Noooo!
They are not meant to be the same!
They are both ace.

Agreed.

If you don't watch it, how can you come to that opinion?
I watched enough of it to know that I didn't want to see any more, I suspect.
I think Lead Balloon is a terrific series, and the Christmas episode has been the best of this year's specials so far.
Michael was great when he was stoned and I think there was real enjoyment in Rick's eyes when he was pelting the sweets into the panto audience.
