Yeah it was good but not as good as last week.
I'm glad he covered the topic of "fun facts" though because that's one thing (among many!) which annoys me about the internet. There are whole websites seemingly dedicated to compiling endless lists of pointless trivia like "15 Amazing Facts About Anvils" and then these "fun fact" lists get endlessly reposted on Facebook etc. clogging up my social media with drivel. I'm getting a bit tired of Dave's found poem section as well ("which I would like.........to perform.....for you .now") ![]() How on earth did they go from "He's a family man" to what was written after ![]() ![]()

I enjoyed it. A bit slow on the spelling out the longest place names bit, but it did segue nicely into the pub quiz anecdote and the fun facts. Was stunned by that sentence!

He spent too long on the "Fun Facts" IMO

Because of 'that' expression I learnt that the original meaning of 'proof' is to test

I get the impression that the celeb guy makes up his gossip feed and then hopes that people don't see it or don't pull him up on it.
Pretty sure he could be done for libel if a person took enough umbridge with one of his statements. |

Neil Sean isn't happy with that segment on the show. I do think he has taken it too seriously.

I really thought Neil's book (I'd never heard of him) was a badly photoshopped made up book until Dave showed it

Good episode this week with Dave taking the piss out of Neil Sean and writing silly letters to the Royals.
I've often seen Sean's "Green Room" column in the Metro but even a cursory glance at his column is enough to bring one to the edge of tedium. It's such a load of utterly inconsequential nonsense. Good to see Phil Schofield caught him out for printing an untrue story. Neil Sean is not happy... https://twitter.com/DaveGorman/statu...97014010585088 |

This is a very good show.

Very good show last night I thought, one of my favourites
Whole thing was basically a wind up though! I was thinking the QR code could have somehow read some data of your sim card in order to display your house from Google Maps, seemed possible to me |

Great show.
Read a few tweets to him after the show that were tweeted during it pointing out that it was HM The Queen. ![]() Surely people should know to only point out mistakes to him afterwards as he usually has a reason for making such obvious mistakes. |
