Didn't see a thread on this.
The Fearne Cotton impression is still winning it for me, and Jon Culshaw's Brian Cox blows theirs out of the water, but that impression of Terry Wogan is more like an old Alan Partridge!
Very Important People
The Fearne was amazingly good. As was the Russell Brand!
I really rather enjoyed it.
They were very anti Frankie Boyle though.

He wouldn't want it any other way
Ha.
I liked hearing Terry Wogan say bumbaclart (or however you spell it).
Really good impressions, really bad material.
Stella Street was one of the only shows to do something right with an impersonation. You could probably convince most of the "celebs" on VIP to do the lines themselves anyway.
I liked the way they laid into Frankie Boyle though.
Attenborough and Wogan were brilliant, as was Cotton and Brand. The Sonya off EastEnders was spot on too.
I agree the material lets them down in some cases, but overall this is cut above the rest.

Oh yes, that was awesomely accurate.
The Gordon Ramsay & Attenborough were brilliant.
I thought it was pretty good in parts. Some really excellent Impersonations.
Oh, the Owen Wilson was perfect. The Jennifer Aniston didn't seem to me anything like her though.
The impersonations seemed rather forced and over done.
The sketches were all long and numbingly obvious.
So I spent most of it flicking between this and a rather good episode of Come dine with me.
Which had a vicar, a buxom witch and a naughty oldy lady.

He was brilliant, that whole sketch was great, loved the friend who says 'Pu-saayyy!'.
As ever we won't know how good this is until The BCG's resident Impressionist James Cotter has his say.
Have you seen the photos on facebook of Viet Congter?
Generally pretty good. Danny Dyer deserves a mention too.
I thought yes - excellent impressions... but I just didn't find it very funny. Although the Fearne's celeb race (or whatever it was) was quite funny although child actors were not great.

Agreed.
