Oh, cheers. Adam Buxton and Kevin Bishop, huzzah!

I hope "The Scum..." will be good, it's got a good cast. But from what i've heard about "Coming Of Age", is not possitive. It's just a younger "2 Pints..." with disgusting humor and endless knob gags.

Adam Buxton and Chris Barrie!
Yay!

Adam Buxton, the better half of Adam & Joe.

*gasp*

Noo! They are each an equal half of one lovely persoine.

Meh, I liked them both equally at first but as they've gone separate, for the time being, I can see Adam is the talented one. Joe was the straight one anyway, when did he ever wear a sailors hat?

True... but... comedy glasses?

No?

lol. I like him but I just think Adams better. Did you not see, The Last Chancers? With Chocolate factory? lol.

Adam 51% - Joe 49%

Okay, okay, I concede. :)

I'm just all Joe-d up cause he added me on myspace yesterday. (Woo!11)

Lol. OMG You know Joe@!!!!!!! He's brilliant!!!!!!!!!! Let me add him as well..............***waits!**

Hee.
The best thing about myspace: pointlessly adding famous people.

I've only got Dara O'Briaiann??? I think? Because I added him when I first made myspace, oh yeah, someone called Laura as well? Big star apparently?

Oh and Mike Wilmot, Russel Howard and a pornstar called Laula.

Oh yes, I hear she's the next big thing.

Russell Howard, eh? Now there's an idea...

That Coming Of Age was on last month at about 3 in the morning, if you think Two Pints is bad you want to see this (or maybe you don't). Vile, crude humour and as somebody else said knob gags. Written by the 18 year old writer mentioned on here a while back...but I'm guessing that it can't have been his original script, somebody probably told him along the way "throw in a few more knob gags".

Crikey... just how many knob gags are there...
