I've just applied for tickets for this new Harry Hill sitcom.
Can't wait.

I'm already going to far too much at the moment or would myself. 'Tis a great venue though, if you've not been before. 
If anybody (Andrew perhaps?) could give any more info on this show then that would be cool. It certainly sounds a more interesting concept than most sitcoms and I've liked pretty much everything that Harry Hill has done.
I'll tell you all about it on Thursday.
Well I've got Priority Tickets so I'm off in about half an hour. Never been there before so I'll probably get lost and miss it.
I was there last night. Thrilling stuff!
Nearly walked into Barry Cryer.
Nearly bumped into Prunella Scales whilst there last week.

They were there filming the Frost Report. (David Frost, Ronnie Corbett etc. were there too)
Indeed they were; almost bumped into David Nobbs on the way out afterwards.
Righr - well 8.40 and I'm back home again.
I was expecting a performance of the sitcom and what we got was a fimed run through for us to add the laughter track to.
The warm up was so so. Anyone who thinks they can do stand up should consider this as I'm sure they can do as well.
Then thew man himself came on stage and did about ten minutes. I love his humour so thought it was great. I know though that for instance Charley hates him.
Anyway - then we had the sitcom itself and as I saidI'm a fan so really enjoyed it. Kate Robbins, Lisa Tarbuck and Mark Benton (the fat bloke in the Nationwide ads) co-starred.
Basically Harry's character runs a pub in a small village with all sorts of characters including a policewoman who can't walk and his black adopted son played by a ventriloquist dummy.
Les Battersby and Nick Cotton had cameo appearances.
So really if you're a fan you'll love it. If it gets shown - look out for it!
Sounds, erm, intriguing!
Did you get free Becks' in the tent outside beforehand?
(No seriously, sounds interesting. Hopefully it will be broadcast.)
I had a free pint of lager - better than nothing.
I hope it will be too and that my review was insightful enough.
Admit it - you're none the wiser.
Well it was a little more than I'd read in the customary blurb!
I really hope that this show is commissioned. It sounds like a return to the bizarre humour that Harry had in his C4 show and that has been lost a little in TV Burp (even though I enjoy that as well).
Anyone heard anything more about this??
