From Jack Dee on HIGNFY tonight:
"Paul Gascoigne isn't the only Geordie to have legally changed his name, although he is the only one not involved in the witness protection programme."

You'll be saddened to hear that BBC Scotland are doing a six-week Best Of Chewin' The Fat at the moment, on FRiday nights. Some classics: the lighthouse keepers, Jack and Victor with a Tazer, Gie's a swatch o' yer fanny. And the very creepy scene where a guy knocks on someone's door, desperate for the toilet, only to find something exceedingly unexpected.

There was some imperialist talk recently of us taking back Berwick---the tourist board thinks it would provide a shot in the arm for the place.
No seafaring types, but we were given the camp Edinburgh duo who just love the banter, Ronald Villiers auditioning for Star Trek, the embarrassed teen whose mother is hanging out bedsheets and saying "He's just started the masturbating," the prudish teacher asking her pupils to draw a man's thing, and the invisible boss, among others.
Yeah, I saw that Iannucci piece. It was just so true. Among the gems like Chewin' The Fat, Still Game, Only An Excuse and Scotch And Wry, we had to put up with innumerable Gaelic programmes and shortbread tin-style "entertainment."
