    I wonder whether he will introduce himself as "Je suis Charlie"?

    I enjoyed the Christmas special especially his version of "reasons to be cheerful". It looks like 2015 will be as sad as last year , mind...

    'What's 'e doin' in the wilderness''




    ETA And now Churchill and 'turning your brains to mush' and other items are making me laugh!

    Ooops. Sorry. It's now Newsnight.

    "The question is...who, or what, was Winstone Churchill [sic]?

    The answer is 'who'."

    A great return to form. I presume the new character is meant to be a spoof a trendy 'vlogger' but I'm not keen.

    I like the idea, and it is something that needs spoofing, but yeah it took too long.

    The rest of it was pretty perfect though I thought.

    I liked him sabotaging all efforts fot him to show the cartoon, whilst preaching that he would if allowed. Pretty good satire of what a lot of the media did.

    :blush: Didn't read op properly where it clearly says 10pm.

    Thanks op. I missed it unfortunately and I think I would regret it in the morning if I were to watch the repeat later but I'll know for next week.

    I did think he was unlikely to be bothered that something was in bad taste!
