British Comedy Guide, 25th March 2014Radio Times review
What is it with comedians and getting married this week? Milton Jones "launched" his own wedding business in yesterday's show, and now Jason Cook offers advice on the things one really ought not to include in a best-man's speech - what the bride is like in bed being a prime example.
When he was writing this series, Cook posted a request on his website asking fans to send him examples of what they have done in stressful situations, so while his "advice" is funny, it stems from real mishaps.
