Not whinging again, are you?

Only about how HIGNFY went from spiritual successor of TW3 to a watered down version of The One Show.

As a cosy, non-threatening, non-challenging, predictable bore fest for people who don't want to face any of life's 'badness' or ask questions of themselves or society, then it is great.

Cutting edge political and social satire, it be ain't not no mores.

Ya big whingy-pants.

A quick history of the show.

1990- Cyril Smith is fat

2000- John Prescott is fat

2010- Eric Pickles is fat

Any questions?

Laughing out loud

Now for the missing words round -

zooo can take her_____opinion and shove it up her_____as her views on television shows are more_______then a rotting cow's twat.

;) :P :P

Yes, why do people still laugh at Merton's sub-Pythonesque surreal 'imagery' during the Missing Words round?

The sheer hilarity of criticising HIGNFY for being cosy because they didn't do some cheap paedo jokes.

They didn't do any jokes. Cheap, paedo, funny or otherwise. They just pointlessly agonised over Jimmy Savile.

At least when Flanders' wife in the Simpsons screeches 'Won't someone think of the children?' it's ironically humourous.

zooo can take her excellent opinion and shove it up her BCG Forum as her views on television shows are more knowledgeable and fragrant then a rotting cow's twat.

Happy now? Angry

Hate to be a pedant (alright, I love to be a pedant) but it was actually Rev. Lovejoy's wife.

It seems that Jimmy Savile made enough jokes about this in his lifetime anyway...

Just one... What year was Roy Hattersley and the tub of Lard?

Surely there would be scope, now a lot of water has run under the bridge, to bring back Angus Deaton as the host?
