I've only been watching the LL the past few years, and only then when there hasn't been something that appeals on BBC4's music night. Just looks like your standard Gov bashing rather than Tory bashing per se (Trump has taken a lot of stick too), whoever's in power gets it in the neck, they're the ones making the decisions that affect our lives. If it feels one-sided, you have to remember that the Tories have been in power for well over 10 years now, before the LL even started...

Perhaps that's true.....unfort though its just not very funny (surely even if one is a 'tories are all that is evil' type of guy, one has to acknowledge that the enjoyment probably comes more from having your position reaffirmed, than anything that's truly comedic).....anyway...I'm not willing to watch for another 20 years though until Labour get thier act together to test the theory!


Although I suppose, given Trump was a regualr taregt, a good test will be how much they start taking Joe Biden down...of course the cynic in me says, not likely....

That's the only episode I saw - JC turned up in a Lords outfit all posh and done up - went into the changing room and came out dressed as the JC we all knew then - a little scruffy with brown shoes.


I actually thought that bit was funny.

on the minus column, I have seen much online leftie "it's like the third reich all over again" discourse. Which is painful and wrong


And yet. And yet


Unfunny TV shows carry on for years and years without any problem. Subjectivity and all that


But bad comedy shows also get cancelled all the time. And that's ok too


I literally don't care if the Daily Mash itself continues or if it's cancelled - I won't be watching


And yet and yet


Tim Davie arrived with a target of axing leftie comedy shows


Compared to the Thatcher years there does seem to be an unwillingness to tolerate anti-govt dissenting voices.


Away from bad comedy shows there is way, way less opposition to government compared to 80s. Wether it's TV or actual Political Party Opposition


Something is rotten somewhere. This government, more than many, needs examination. Mash Report didn't do a funny job (in my view - some do like it tho). And yet and yet

    • These are the smokeless fuels you can burn on a open fireplace in Southwark: https://smokecontrol.defra.gov.uk/fuels-php/england/ https://www.southwark.gov.uk/planning-environment-and-building-control/environment/air-quality/reduce-air-pollution/reduce-smoke
    • Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm    
    • If you mean the one outside the church going towards Peckham, it still had the closed sign on it this morning, but as there are no road works there, I'm sure some of the drivers will stop there on request.  The stop outside the chippy coming from Peckham is closed as there are road works in front of it.  The 4 way traffic lights are in operation.., causing a lot of congestion.
    • We found a recommendation for Geek Electrics on a here after we wanted to have a electrical inspection of a property we are buying. From the very beginning through to the end Bob was responsive, helpful and demonstrated his knowledge. He has been an absolute pleasure to deal with. We will defiantly be using Bob again and would thoroughly recommend him! His details are... www.geekelectrics.co.uk 07453 407 226 [email protected]
