A comedian has accused Steve Coogan of stealing his idea for a sitcom.

This of course will set alarm bells ringing with those on here wary of submitting their scripts to production companies. Of course there is always the chance of coincidence.

The 'original' series was a fully produced show published on the web, not a script.

Such worries really are self-defeating and effectively baseless.

For goodness sake!
Just looked it ip.
For a start it's nothing to do with Steve Coogan.
And as Aarons says, the original has been available on Youtube for nigh on 10 Years.
And the 'original' idea his hardly original - Seinfeld anyone??

You have to feel sorry for the poor old left. Not only saddled with five years of having to defend a leader who makes Boris Johnson look like the most honest & trustworthy leader in history, they now don't quite know what to do about the new Conservative leader.

Or now the new President elect of the USA, after their Foreign Secretary called him all those things a few years back, but most of his MPs have gone on record saying nasty things about him. Proving the current Labour party and its leader have no political instinct whatsoever.

What do they believe, that all their opposition should to be as woke as they are??? Hopefully it'll dawn on them that they are the odd ones out, not the more in tune with the public right wing opposition, when they get kicked out after one short term. Lefty rabble.

Starmer's actually done a decent job of toadying up to Trump so far, and Trump does respond well to toadying (which is why Putin is already calling him courageous and manly because he knows that's the best way to manipulate him).
