Paid Members BomberPat Posted September 23, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted September 23, 2021 in fairness, I'm not a big fan of Nish Kumar either - he has the Andy Parsons thing of over-telegraphing the delivery of his jokes so you know exactly when the punchline is coming, and sometimes seems a bit too pleased with some of his own jokes. I saw a Zoom gig he did around the time Mash Report was cancelled, which barely had any jokes in it, but was more entertaining that anything I've seen him do on TV - he's a rare breed of comedian in that he seems a nicer guy than he is a funny comic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Danger Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Yeah Nish is in the category of comedians I like to listen to on podcasts but have no desire to see them telling jokes. Super likeable just not very funny to me. Anyway, Mike Flanagan’s latest mini series Midnight Mass is on Netflix tomorrow. Looks an interesting change of direction from the Hill House series’ plus Bly Manors moustachioed chef and all round good egg Rahul Kohli looks to have a decent part.

Keith Houchen Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Yeah he’s a decent sort, would be a wonderful man if he supported a different team but hey ho. Looking forward to Midnight Mass, enjoyed the last two Netflix outings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perry Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 The first couple of series was ok, they had some gritty storylines for a pre watershed drama. But then it morphed into Hollyoaks kind of shite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I used to run a small gig in London, Nish performed a few times, and he gently stole the show every time. And he was at his best when he was just chatting with the audience and letting things go wherever they went. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perry Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I would love to know what this side on joke is about. But then I again I'm supposed to be Mab right? Tiger Rick clearly has a hard on for him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awards Moderator Onyx2 Posted September 23, 2021 Awards Moderator Share Posted September 23, 2021 No regular watchers of Cbeebies in my house any more but this is just wonderful. I might well have blinked away a tear of joy by the end.   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
