    Anything with Jason Manford on is usually lame, cheap TV. I don't know, it's like he's riding on the 'quaint Northerner' act, delivering stuff in the 'average bloke' kinda way...but Peter Kay and Lee Mack pretty much have that angle covered (Mack being the funniest by a long way)

    Similar with Ross Noble and the Milican - neither hilariously funny but, hey they have 'comedic' voices, so that makes them hysterically funny.

    I see Jack Carroll is as unfunny as ever!

    The audacity of using a Harry Hill catchphrase as a punchline! I usually dont mind him but I can't really relate to school-based stand-up, having left school about 15 years or so ago.

    I like Jason aka ford but this isn't funny. Jack Carroll was absolutely horrendous.

    I don't actually mind the programme, although it feels more like a late afternoon/early evening Sunday filler programme rather than primetime Monday night.

    Maybe. Not sure I agree.

    Apologies for the autocorrect mistake by the way.

    That woman at the end - I was on the bus driver's side (apart from calling the police).

    Being very young and disabled does not excuse poor alleged jokes.

    What a silly boy. He was on when I flicked across and I could not believe the "joke" he made......

    Two religions, Christianity on one side and Islam on the other. So God looks down and says FIGHT.

    That's funny is it? Not even amusing in the school playground surely. :blush:

    Whole thing is just unbelievably bad.

    Which is the worst 'comedy' ever: this or SunTrap?

    Tough call.

    I love Jason Manford, but not a big fan of this show at all, I think it would be so much better with just him, instead of the comedians and clips.
    The selfie stick thing was just awful!

    Rather enjoyed it. Wouldn't watch it religiously but if it was on it was certainly hold my interest and give a few chuckles.

    It still wasn't great but a bit better than last week's dreadful debut. Not something I'd wait out for but may take a look if nothing else is on.

    The canned laugher on this is the truly laughable aspect.


    Also he pretty much word for word repeated a joke from The Last Leg on Friday.
