Dave Granger video that may be banned Page 2

Seen one or two of these before, enjoyed this and others but also think a more puney looking chap would work better.

But each to their own, hey!

Good sketch :D

Another good one, Mat.

Agree Luke's dialogue can distract, yet see why you feel you should keep him in. Dilemma!

Dave's physique is OK. It proves he is successful at keeping himself in shape - if nothing else, which gives me an idea;

How about an episode where Luke secretly follows Dave into the gym. Dave has a female personal trainer of whom he is sh*t-scared and to whom he is totally subservient. Let's see him explain his way out of that...

[Keep Luke in and see where it goes].

Okay a comedy development bod from a big prodco just saw this and said the offscreen Luke character was rather dashed annoying. (I'm paraphrasing quite a lot there.) He liked the main guy though.

Mat check your PM box for further details

Very good stuff!

Laughing out loud

I kind of agree with Lee and kind of don't. I think you should keep him in but he should have a stronger character if that makes sense?

I know what Henman means, and I kind of agree. But do what you gotta do man Cool

we seem to have started a big debate on the Luke situation. Thanks for your feedback, and it's all taken on board. Lee, we have plenty of Lisa stuff coming up, some sketches mention lisa a bit and some are basically dave ignoring the lesson and just talking about lisa, and then other sketches we don't even mention her. Don't want to just do the same thing each sketch. we try to make each skecth a bit different, same sorta thing some sketches have a lot of luke, some have next to none, I think there have been some good punch-lines that Luke puts to things, and sometimes it's just background noise. but he's established now, and Dave needs a camera man who he can talk to as he's a lonely man.


We are filming new Dave stuff next sunday, for a comedy competition, and we are thinking of expanding the world a bit and maybe having him on screen with someone else in some sketches, as right now it's just Dave. I don't think we are doing anything that isn't Dave related anytime soon, it's the main thing we are doing right now, also Davegranger.com is coming soon.

I don't think Luke should comment as much as he does, but he should still comment. That way it seems more like he is genuinely shocked and can't help but say something.

I also thought the ending was a little bit anti-climactic... maybe he should run down the hill, trip, fly past the camera, grunt in pain, Luke asks if he's ok, he says he thinks hes snapped his banjo string... pauses, then says the grape is ok, pulls the camera back to look at him and tells the viewers that the grape is ok. Or something.

Other than that, really enjoyed it. Wonderful stuff, loved the earlier ones too.

I loved this and thought the other guys responses had a nice John Shuttleworth vibe.

But that may not be what you're looking for...
