Have you all seen this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vzEMbz3H2Y

As it started I was less than amused at Charlie bringing his condescending view to ADWD, and suggesting it was some sort of mad religious cult recruitment show But as it went on its actually very funny, and I say that as a big fan of the show (most of the time). He does make fun of a lot of things - but hopefully noone will take offence to his pokes at particular 'josephs' (sorry lewis). The clips of the grinning boys do get a bit cringeworthy after the first 10 times.

He's particularly not impressed by the boys singing semi naked in front of their mothers (so sick its almost German ), makes an amusing jibe at Seamus and "his own show" and of course ALW (and his face).

There's a wicked review of the Grease show.

And he actually makes a very good point regarding the harking on about any boys who come from manual jobs.

Its a must see clip

Very, very funny. Poor Lewis! I loved the bit where he said if we lost the top 2,000 celebrities in the country, GITW is what television would be like every night. So true

I spat my drink out at the description of Dr Who!

Absolutely spot on - especially as he thought the same as me about the loincloth episode - 'They didn't ask the Marias to dress up in bikinis and parade in front of their dads'!
