This has just started on Channel 4.

So far i'm not impressed. Number 50 of 50 was Mel Brooks(!), but even worse Ricky Gervais was 49th! And this is supposed to be voted for by experts!

This is odd. Peter Cook won and i switched over to ITV1 when the show finished and what do I see, a documentary about Peter Cook, weird!

I'm becoming very suspect about these countdowns on Channel 4. There always seems to be a link to something being shown on Channel 4. Don't forget the up and coming Top 100 Cartoons which you have to be seriously retarded not to think the Simpsons will be No 1.

And the top TV treats of 2004...which was the last (new) episode of Friends

I did find the Top tv treats very entertaining, however I did watch that show last night and found some of it very interesting, however I wasn't to amused at some of the jokes that Peter Cook came out with.

Being a big fan of Eddie Izzard, i was happy to see some footage of him i'd never seen before. The earliest recording of one of his shows i've got is from 1993, i don't have the one from 1992. I must look out for it.
