Multiple episodes it seems. The research that must go into these shows just to get half an hour of content. I would say I enjoyed this one more than last weeks - seemed much more random.


Yes, it does feel that the humour is more random, surreal and subtle than TV Burp or Alien Fun Capsule - much more like the tone of Harry’s early programmes.

I really enjoyed last night’s show. The subtly edited Casualty titles really made me laugh. They must have had some good editing equitment to make those.

I’m always amazed at the amount of work that must go into a show like this, and how on Earth they find all the clips. How many episodes do you need to watch before you realise ‘nice of you to join us’ is a regularly used line.

Sadly like many of Harry’s more surreal shows, the ratings are quite poor.

I’ve no idea what the ratings are like. Are you saying they are poor by Harry Hill’s standards or poor by BBC Two Sunday night standards?

Thought last night’s was the best one yet. Seemed like a pretty strong BBC Two schedule too with Mortimer & Whitehouse and Louis Theroux.
