Amazing what a few contacts in TV and an agent will get you...

Maybe you need an agent, Cowards?

I'm working on it.

I look forward to you gently ribbing Sandi Toxvig about her height/nationality/sexuality on The News Quiz. ;)

I had a pound for every time that's been used!

Just listened to this weeks Museum of Curiosity. An excellent edition. Good selection of diverse guests and a nice choice of exhbits. The weird studies stuff was very funny. And who'd have thunk Kevin Eldon's a buddhist.

I had no idea Eldon was a Buddhist either.

By the way, for fans of So Wrong It's Right, the Twitter rant is now on YouTube.

Who is Micky Flanagan...? I've never heard of him. It was a mildly diverting thirty minutes, but cor-blimey-guvnor it felt incredibly dated. Stuff we've heard a thousand times before.

Oh, and he was deeply irritating when he did his middle-class voices.

All I really know is that he is a cockney and that he appeared on Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow. Here is a clip of him.

Oh my aching sides.

I think I want to put his cock in a vice.

A very enjoyable Charlie Brooker last night. Ian Morris was a revelation. His idea for a social networking site to stalk ex's was great, and it was fun learning that the "sliding" stuff in Inbetweeners was based on a real incident.

Enjoyed Heresy tonight. I especially enjoyed the Richard Dawkins/atheism debate. Personally I've always felt a bit uneasy with Dawkins. He's a bit "too athiest" if you get my meaning.

Yes, it was quite enjoyable tonight, and the priesty bloke was good. Although the Dawkins backlash has been going awhile. Possibly time for a backlash against the backlash.

Not a bad Museum of Curiosity last night, although the only thing that really sticks in my mind are the sand dunes. The rest was a bit forgettable.

To be honest, that's how it felt to me last night. The singing sands was the best bit.

Again, why has Micky Flannagan got a prime time Radio 4 comedy show?
Neither his stand up nor his life story seems interesting enough to warrant it. All I can think of is that he has a shit hot agent.

And yes, he did his bloody irritating middle-class pronunciation of "restaurant" again. Angry
