Unless they are all smoking weed from the 90s which gives you uncontrollable giggles

Aha - new show concept.

Similar to Last one laughing, but 10 really serious boring fuckers all smoking 90's weed. Playing the joker could be stuff like a 3 minute lecture on quantum physics.

We'll go 50:50 on the proceeds.

Proper shitty resin stuff complete with boulders melting their tracky bottoms

I like Bob Mortimer a lot, but I'll be honest, I didn't find that amusing at all

I think bob Mortimer is funny

And some of the others can be

But every time I see this show I think I could quite easily get through an episode without laughing

Unless they are all smoking weed from the 90s which gives you uncontrollable giggles

No way I'm surviving his Magician show from the last series.

Not a chance.

Hadn't heard of Patience. Started S1 last night. Not bad.

Just finished S1, excellent. Got some personal family experience of autism, was really good how it wove in awareness of the condition and its impact on those who have it.

Not trying to spoil it but the change of one of the main characters made the second series less enjoyable for us.

A slimmed down Jessica Hynes playing bad cop was a tester.

Yes, I'd spotted that, I like Laura Fraser, was a shame she couldn't continue being in it.

You're right, French / Belgian tale called Astrid et Raphaelle. Patience is also a joint Belgian production, involving the producers/directors of Professor T, which had a not dissimilar premise.

That we both like The Boys or a bloke who eats soil and shits it out is a bit gippy?

Bit of both really. The Boys is amazing, and I love how writers are made to look a bit gippy. The Deep killed a writer in S4- think he called him pathetic and suggested writers earn nothing 😂

The documentary on iPlayer about Paul McCartney finding his 1961 Hofner Bass that was stolen in 1972 is very good if you're a Beatles fan.

Or Wings

The band The Beatles could've been.

In all seriousness, I absolute love Wings. I loved them before I even knew The Beatles existed as my dad got a new stereo system and put his old one in my bedroom when I was about 7, and the only tape I had was a compilation he'd made of Wings songs (with 'The Ace of Spades' by Motorhead stuck on the end of side 2 for some unknown reason). I used to stick my headphones on and listen to it while I went to sleep. Must've done that every single night for at least a year, so their songs are deeply embedded in my brain. I even convinced myself that Paul McCartney was my uncle because my real uncle looked a bit like him (he didn't, but that's what my tiny brain thought). Then my dad taught me how to use the turntable and gave me an LP called 'The Beatles Ballads' that had a weird trippy sleeve, and I've been absolutely fucking hooked on them ever since.

I'll never forget nonchalently singing 'Yesterday' in the car and my dad saying "How the hell do you know all the words to that song?", and I felt dead proud. Weird what sticks in your brain. Whenever I listen to any of the songs that appeared on that LP, I can almost still hear the pops and crackles in the exact same places as the scratches on the vinyl I had. Still got it somewhere.

This so reminds me of my childhood but with my older brothers, they raised me when my dad wasn't there. But it was the kinks, style council, the jam, etc. He had the scooter with chrome mirrors and I thought it was so cool.

Then it was acid and rave, trance and dance my younger elder brother introduced me to but New Order just stuck with me for some reason.

Happy times 😊

Don't think I actively listened to anything except The Beatles, Wings, and occasionally Pink Floyd, until I was about 15. 😂 Obviously I heard songs on the radio and stuff, but it was all just background shite that I took no notice of. Then my mate put 'The Bends' on when I was at his house getting ready to go out for some juvenile street drinking, and I got the same feeling I'd had when listening to a Beatles album for the first time. Then the same happened with Joy Division - and shit loads of other bands, although not quite to the same degree. They'll always be the trifecta for me - Beatles, Radiohead, Joy Division, but not necessarily in any particular order.

I think it's just what clicks as you go through your formative years.

I loved the massive record player in my elder brothers bedroom and he had his mates round playing music so to me as a 8, 9, 10 year old it was so cool.

Then the tapes came along and recording off the radio, simple pleasures 😊
