Frank Skinner

The most loquacious comedy on the airwaves comes to a close this week as the verbose partners from hell fall out over celery, Androcles and the lion and the use of parentheses on notes stuck to the fridge door. Frank Skinner's writing has been a revelation.

I once sat through an edition of Would I Lie to You? without laughing. No, you're right - that's a lie. You try keeping a straight face as Sarah Millican tells the story of what she did when caught short while stuck in her car in a traffic jam. Or as Jon Richardson turns into "Trevor Travel-Planner" in his attempt to discredit Frank Skinner's tale about being taken to A&E in an ice-cream van while on holiday. But it's Lee Mack and David Mitchell who steal everyone's thunder with their by now familiar posh-versus-common, southern-versus-northern tirades.
