I actually enjoyed the show and I wasn't expecting much as I had never heard of Anna Kendrick, and have no interest in Daniel Radcliffe of Justin Timberlake.

The audience participation was quite funny and Justin was a good sport for joining in. Daniel Radcliffe was okay. I wasn't keen on Anna and I thought Robbie's story was very funny (although I appreciate it could have been bs) Not overkeen on his song though, it sounded like a lot of his others!

All in all a good start to the series.

Not sure what next week will be like as I can't stand John Bishop.

I thought Daniel was the best guest, he was very amusing and witty. Justin and Anna were okay but I must admit I found them slightly boring at times, thought to be fair they did at least make an effort. I have to say I found Robbie's story hilarious, though I probably shouldn't have!

That story smelt of BS, in fact I've definitely heard the "we don't have a cleaner on whatever day" before.
Yes, thought it was only me. I heard that 'story' before as well. If only he hadn't added in finding out who she actually was, he might have got away with it. How utterly deluded this 'entertainer' is.

Robbie looked horrific. Botoxed to high heaven and face plastered in make up.

Bumping up the thread for tonight's episode with Ewan McGregor, Sam Neill, Danny Devito, Miranda Hart, John Bishop and Amber Riley.

In two weeks, it's Tom Cruise, Cobie Smulders, Jude Law, Catherine Tate and Kings of Leon. There are actually two episodes being recorded in two weeks. I don't know who will be in the other episode or if it will only be the same episode filmed in two parts.

BTW, is it written that whenever Tom Cruise appears, he must appear with one of his female costars?

Could be a decent couch but sadly John Bishop's there....

Nice to see Reilly, Ace of Spies.

Only Ewan McGregor is keeping me interested tonight. Sam Neill is a bit boring and Miranda and John are pretty irritating

"And that's curmudgeons and you can watch it on video right now"

In this day and age you have to be a bit more specific.

Danny DeVito was great as always and i liked Ewan McGregor and Sam Neill as they came out with some good stuff. Miranda Hart and John Bishop were not as funny as in the past but they had their moments. Amber Riley singing was good but nothing special. But what has happened to the big red chair or was it that they did not have enough time to do it

Problem with this show are the repetitive guests!

What came off Sam's head when he took his hat off? It was like smoke or something.

Initially I thought it was some kind of intentional special effect, but on looking at it again I think it was just a waft of hair lacquer .

Enjoyed this show

They get Miranda and John on because they interact with the guests. A good show. Thats why I think its important to have Brit guests at the end.

Next week is all Americans....

Brit comics overcompensate for their lack of fame when sat next to Hollywood types by gabbling on just as Bishop did last night with an accent so thick I daresay they couldn't tell what he was saying half the time.

It wouldn't have been so bad if he didn't insist on starting with "I can't believe I'm telling you this", as if he accidentally hinted at a story, and then Graham had forced him into a corner. He wanted a salacious story to appeal to the tabloids, and had clearly rehearsed it in advance, and was very desperate to tell it. It was all a bit low rent.

I do like the song though.

I think most people have the internet, so it's not that hard to look these things up.

Wasn't it Chris Pratt? I loved that episode. The two of them totally bonded!

Yeah it's probably a silly name for a site. I forgot to watch Curmudgeons today, will give it a go tomorrow.
