Obviously you think Russell Brand talks sense then.
As I have zero interest in Russell Brand or anything he has to say I can't really comment further. All my original post was saying was that I thought the Brand sketch was the weakest part in what I thought was otherwise a pretty enjoyable Brooker show.
Everything Philomena Cunk comes out with has me in fits - "like other Greek inventions such as thick yoghurt, sodomy and triangles, democracy took the world by storm".
Very good stuff. Barry Sh!tpeas just saying "Nicola Surgeon" lots of times got me, and I love the intellectual red headed goddess that is Philomena Cunk. Sure some people will find some Biased Broadcasting Corporation angle as per, but I couldn't see it myself. Very enjoyable.

"King John signed the Magma Carta, which according to Google Translate is a kind of cardboard volcano."
Found it very poor. Too much padding and not enough
of the anger and comedy that make a good Brooker
show. Should have been thirty minutes with all the
dross cut out IMO.
Very good show all in all. Cunk was brilliant, as always. The Brand bit was OK, not particularly funny, but OK. At least it didn't go on and on like the Brand segments in the half hour shows.
Emily Surname was fine. But that's one of those things where if you've seen it once then you've seen it completely. Nothing she did in this episode was new. Nothing.

Hint : it's not supposed to be serious.
Ah, cheers
No, That was used much earlier and not something I would miss as that is my favourite music of all time.
The one I think the poster was asking about was a much lighter dee dee dit type tune more like a family quiz tune of old.
Funnier than Channel 4's mockumentary on what a UKIP government would be like.
'Funny' might have helped in that case. ;-)
Is it 'The Gonk'?

Brooker and Hislop are pretty even handed in their satire

I LOVE Emily Surname!
a good show and Philomena's election green screen was my favourite bit
It said "Charlie Brokers Election Wipe"
This is not on an advert channel.
I thought the first 100 days of Brand was funny too.

I wonder if Brand likes those bits.
Guess we'll have to wait for the next big fat quiz to find out
'Tis the classic Paul Kuhn track 'A Swingin' Safari'. Having said that, the version he used isn't the original, and isn't a version I've heard before.

Thats it! Thank you
