Nah, olive green gillets and jodhpurs don't do anything for me I'm afraid. No accounting for taste

Is your friend clinically dead and/or a paedophile/terrorist? I can't think of any earthly reason otherwise.

Between us we're probably all three tbh
I prefer plaid or nice flannel shirt myself to gillets. Jodhpurs I don't mind really. I just like the farmgirl stereotype I suppose.Nah, olive green gillets and jodhpurs don't do anything for me I'm afraid. No accounting for taste

It's next on my list.
I might get banned for saying this insane sentence....
...but also add in a little bit of Horse Meat "Scandal" and we've essentially caused the self destruction of Britain!
Uh-oh, I've spread the secret to a large forum. I'm gonna Edward Snowden it. MI5 are on to me, that's right, Mr.Bean himself is on his way. D:

It's my favourite thing ever. Stewart Lee helped write that Paedo episode... Along with about 20 others.

Try this. If he doesn't laugh at that he's dead weight. You should seriously consider manipulating your mate into ditching him, he's clearly a toxic influence.

Snow and horse meat I like your style of thinking...
It's one of the funniest things I've seen along with the drugs one.

Oh god, XD.
He's a brilliantly subversive writer. He's has this knack of making these really unlikely scenarios sound thoroughly plausible, but then throws out these random curveballs that somehow don't seem incongruous.
The "Cake" thing in the 90's man, so good.
Good luck Cheez!
Listen all y'all Chris Morris fans. Don't forget 'Why Bother?' his series of short interviews with Sir Arthur Streeb-Greebling (or Sir Arthur Greeb-Streebling). The one where they discuss Honda researching Christ's infant resurrection technology is one of my favourite things ever.

Tell him to do more fucking work, goddamnit.
Damn, I completely forgot those existed. I must listen to them again once I am done with his Radio 1 show.

Hey, did you guys know there's a new series of The Trip on (Coogan + Brydon)?
Well, there's a new series of The Trip on!
Imma watch the first episode right now - it's on iPlayer.

Yep, the first episode was great!
It was actually.
the total lack of set-up was a bit jarring, just a phone-call and off we were in Italy, which I guess is needed when you only have 20 odd minutes.
The tone is very different, Steve is much nicer too Rob and far less annoyed by him it seems. I wonder if they will touch on Rob's attempted infidelity from the first one (it was Steve's assistant...), I did notice Steve pause when Rob mentioned his wife.

It was!
I loved all the bat-chat. Now I want to see Batman film with Rob as an affable villain.
I don't think the second series needs much set up really. The first one had to establish the premise up front, but this time it's simple: the Observer wants them to do some more reviews ¯\_(ツ_/¯ . I'm sure we'll get more background as it goes along, and they already had Steve reveal that his show in the US has been dropped.
Regarding the tone, yeah they seem more friendly now but I'm pretty happy with that. They spent the whole first series getting to know each other, starting off not really liking each other but then growing to be more friendly by the end. Makes sense that it would start off this way. I'm anticipating some kind of falling out along the way...
You're prolly right that Rob's attempted infidelity will be brought up at some point. That moment really shocked me in the first series, as he's says right at the start that he and his wife haven't spent a single night apart for, like, twenty years. Then he goes and tries it on with Steve's assistant after just a couple of days?? It seemed like a really odd way to behave.

That film is all kinds of genius.
"You killed the Special Needs Donkey!"
Yes. Yes you should. I imagine he's terrifying in real life.
They're amazing skits. Morris doesn't hold back one iota even in the face of a genuine comedy genius.
...and yeah, 'Fossils' is one of the best ones:
He's brutal, isn't he? I can't imagine him apologising off 'camera' either, but that could be just because he's so mysterious it's hard to imagine him being anything but his 'malicious newsreader' persona.
Just because I rarely get chance to share this:
Derek and Clive - Alfie Noakes
One of my favourite sketches of "all time" (whatever that means). "But never mind!"

We should really keep to that never meeting rule... I bloody love Derek & Clive.
"Jump, you fucker, Jump..."

"Laugh, I nearly shat..."
It's so puerile, I love it.
My favourite (and I'm not a misogynist) is that whole Guiness Book of World Records one. I'm screaming by the end!
Also:
"Dear Cunts In Charge Of Religion, your fucking guidebook or whatever the fucking thing is ..."
You have excellent taste!

Ok you unruly bunch. I have now booked Eurogamer tickets for Thursday and for Friday.
I will be arriving in London early Thursday and leaving on Sunday morning. Emma will be joining me on Friday night. So (as mentioned in Whatsapp) I will be available to socialise on Thursday night and then Emma and I will come to the big GAF meet on Saturday night.

Nah, he's a pretty friendly guy. Though since he's known me since I was young I doubt he's going to start acting scary towards me. Though the most I usually say to him is "hi" if I happen to see him in the street which is very rarely.

Stay right there. Get a flask of tea ready. I'm popping over so we can stare through his window.
(That's really damn cool. I'm pretty jealous!)
Huh. You're 30% cooler now dude.
Unlucky for her muhahahahahaha
