SaitoRyo Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 'Come on, Simon!' Best episode yet. The racist call, CPR sex doll and the impersonator were all sensational. Quote
Paid Members PunkStep Posted March 20, 2019 Paid Members Posted March 20, 2019 Simon sold that perfectly as well! Quote
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted March 20, 2019 Paid Members Posted March 20, 2019 There's been about 200 "time delay" sketches over the years, so when they started doing it I was a bit "ugh" because they are always the same. And then that little twist made me howl. I'll never doubt Partridge again. Quote
Paid Members BomberPat Posted March 21, 2019 Paid Members Posted March 21, 2019 (edited) In amongst everything else great about that episode, Alan's delivery of the line "on shaky ground" while standing under a "thin ice" sign made me absolutely fucking howl. ...oh fuck, I wrote that before having got to the end of the episode. I don't think my body has ever made quite the noises it did when laughing uncontrollably at "Come On Simon!" during that closing number. Fuck. Edited March 21, 2019 by BomberPat Quote
Paid Members gmoney Posted March 22, 2019 Paid Members Posted March 22, 2019 The impersonator section at the end was so good, I almost forgot about the excellent attempted Monty Don sting. Best episode so far. Quote
Paid Members Murtz Posted March 23, 2019 Paid Members Posted March 23, 2019 I'm having to watch these episodes about 3 times to catch all the subtle brilliance! The moment where they realise what the song at the end was about.. and how the co host mouths 'IRA' to Alan was timed to perfection. They've taken subtle to another level. Its genius. Quote
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted March 26, 2019 Paid Members Posted March 26, 2019 The interactions with Ruth Duggan are good. I can't wait to see which one of them completely loses it with the other. His going off on a tangent in the library with the shelves was.amazing. The whole piece was funny. The bit where they beeped the first syllable in "Country" got a giggle out of me. Quote
Members SuperBacon Posted March 26, 2019 Members Posted March 26, 2019 That’s how he’s getting kicked off the show isn’t it? Losing his shit at Ruth Duggan. I think, for all the flack he got for Alpha Papa, and other things, Tim Key has been note perfect in this series. Quote

The sit-down talking about profanities was brilliant, especially with his squeamish facial expressions. At one point he just let out a big disappointed sigh which killed me. Quote

It's probably something I'd do if I was there, and not on camera. Quote

When she gives her surname and he thinks it's a profanity from one of those old books and is trying to explain what he thinks it means. Quote
Paid Members Scott Malbranque Posted March 27, 2019 Paid Members Posted March 27, 2019 "Spunk up an opening..." The absolute innocence in his eyes as he delivered that. But the 'Clunt/Fluck. Right, I see what I've done there' piece, absolute folded me up. That is probably my favourite moment of television in years, and not one of my mates or work colleagues thought it remotely funny.
