.......Is the genius behind The Fast Show and scripted for Harry Enfield once upon a time. Excellent writer/performer, but a little up his own arse after finding stardom here. Well worth a watch though!!
I have The Fast Show (Live) and Best of......... if you want 'em Buttsie/Deuce

Have watched the Fast Show(just for 38EE) a few times and the humor doesn't translate well for me

Same goes for The Office & The Royale Family

Now Drop the Dead Donkey on the other hand was a riot

A few of the songs on the last Sprouts album had originally been done by Nail on Crocodile Shoes, I think.

Now McAloon is a genius!

The original name for DTDD was Dead Belgians Don't Count, a reference to what constitutes a disaster in news terms.
