I thoroughly enjoyed this programme.

Both comedians were funny (especially the camp one) and Billy Piper was 100% - couldn't fault a single thing she done/said!

Well done Channel 4.

He was much funnier on Jimmy Carr's programme during the summer, 8 out of 10 cats. When I met him he was hysterical.

Loved this show last night, glad they got rid of the original presenters to keep it fresh, in my opinion Alan Carr is the funniest thing on television, and JLC is great too. Loved Billie Piper on the show - it all seemed to flow together very nicely.

Yes it was a great effort - lots of energy and comical potential. Would have been great if Jimmy was in the studio with the other 2...but I can't complain. Billie Piper was fantastic!!!

Brilliant, I couldn't breathe for laughing. Laughing

Yes, this was great - it hugely exceeded my expectations. I watched parts of the last series but didn't think too much of it. This series seems like a massive improvement!

Justin Lee Collins is a weird one, because when I first saw him on BBC Three's Strictly Come Dancing spin-off, I couldn't stand the bloke. But he's grown on me massively. I think he was just poorly suited to front a programme like SCD, whereas he is much better suited to this kind of thing. Alan Carr, who I hadn't seen before, was hilarious, and Billie Piper was amazing.

A great way to start the new series - I just hope they can keep it up to this standard! I suppose it will depend on the guests they have, and Billie was a good bet for the first show. Next week, Lorraine Kelly. Should be interesting, she seemed game for a laugh when she presented HIGNFY.

The thing that warms me to JLC is his apparent passion... On the Christmas song thing he geniunely respected the artists and wanted to bring a good song to the charts and that comes across well... Same with this

I think Billie Piper worked very well for this show actually, she should be on every week! Funniest bit was when they were ripping apart her songs, hillerious. JLC's version was the funniest.

I was always a fan of the friday night project though, think its a good format, and channel 4 are clever and put it on when jonathan ross isn't, which is good as (in my opinion) goes out to a similar audience and gives a nice change from the interview style show, by letting the guest take control and have the whole show based on their personality, rather than the regular hosts (aka jonny ross)

I liked the line about Mutya... they threw a stick for her in the wood, that was the last they saw of her. Very Happy
