British Comedy Guide

Rory and Paddy's Great British Adventure

I put this in the "Other British Comedy" forum seeing as it is hosted by two comedians, but I don't mind it being moved what if being a documentary.

Still, this series has been entertaining. For those who haven't been watching, Rory McGrath and Paddy McGuinness are travelling up and down Britain, taking part in the country's most unusual sports. So far, they have been cheese rolling, axe throwing, bog snorkelling, snail racing, shin kicking, toe wrestling, worm charming, stone skimming, caber tossing, pie eating and dwile flonking.

The final episode is this Wednesday, 21:00 on five.

Series on Demand Five

I actually just spotted this show about 2 minutes ago on my TV guide. There's an episode tonight at 20:00 (again on Five). I almost certainly won't be watching as it involves sport, but sounds interesting otherwise.

I watched the 'shin kicking' one, it may also have contained 'river football', but I'm not sure. It was interesting, but as they both get on my nerves I never watched another.

Pie eating and Cheese rolling are hardly sports! :) If they were I'd be in the Olympics by now!

It's an enjoyable show, and they meet some very eccentric British characters. I think they're funny together too, they're both quite competitive. I didn't realise there were more episodes though so I've missed a few!
