Look at it this way - if you keep them long enough, prices will increase and you'll be paying less by the time you use them.

You obviously haven't looked at the price of !st Class Stamps for some time.
They are 62p each nowadays.

Aw Bill, I was hoping to get a bargain and along the way "help" OR with his problem.

Lame chat shows where the latest stars go through the motions without saying anything interesting? the guest list goes something like this- boring British male thesp(Benedict Cumberbatch), eccentric British female thesp(Julie Walters), tedious American "funny man"(Will Ferrell), stick thin flavour of the moment(Gwyneth Paltrow), smugness awareness impaired(Robbie Williams),humour vacuum(Ricky Gervais) and the teeeeeeeeeedious "humour" of Emma Thompson. I long for the days of Parkinson featuring Wayne, Kelly, Astaire, Mitchum, Niven, Sellers, Ustinov, Burton, and the utterly legendary meeting of Freddie Starr and Muhammad Ali.

For a humour vacuum I'd suggest pretty much any sportsman, rather than Ricky Gervais - who might well have a shit sense of humour (to you) but is hardly a vacuum...?

I like Ricky Gervais' work but the man himself comes across as rather annoying. James Corden has a similar trait

Ah, fair enough!

For the record, I think Extras is his finest work-very underrated

It has annoyed me for years when they get him to front highlights of his shows - just f**king show them in their entirety for Christ's sake. All those talented people just left in some video vault. Angry I bet they would soar up the ratings if they were re-shown as they were originally broadcast.

That's not too much to ask is it? :(

Never watched it, only saw clips - like her, but that character? Dunno, there summat that didn't work for me.

That furniture shop advert with manager and the young assistant. Oh they're so funny!

Also the adverts for that film "The Wedding Ringer." Wouldn't it be a good idea to show some humourous clips?

If you are talking funny adverts, every specsavers one is funny (especially the vet with the hat) and the Lidl ones where they like this and also this.
