Very hit and miss, even as a big fan of Bob Mortimer. Sometimes it has me in kinks but sometimes I go a full episode wondering when they'll say something funny.

Suppose that's the nature of a free podcast. I feel the same way, often I wonder why I'm bothering, but then they'll have me in stitches.

It’s f***ing class man. The but where Peter bought a mouse was unreal. I can’t stand the Corbyn stuff at all tho.

Ironically, I see the "Seen You" line coming from miles away. Yeah, its not funny. Not sure it ever was. I know Andy posts on here, but for me, 90% of the show is about Bob. But then Bob is a top-class comedian of decades, so that's not really a slur on him.

Someone was having a go at Andy on Twitter for being the less funny one, you could put anyone else on the planet alongside bob and say that in my opinion.

I like Andy tho, I think he plays a good role on this and on TFTM, good to see him doing so well these last few years, got to be happy for someone making a living from talking bollocks, it’s the stuff dreams are made of!

Agreed.

If it wasn't a podcast, and instead a TV show, then he would be "doing" a lot more of the show that was written for him (i.e. by Bob) and people would think he was more equal.
Its simply the format of a podcast - very mixed up, raw and unpolished.

Its a canny show, and helps with the commute - what's not to like?
 
I was walking along HSW today and noticed that they have renamed the forbidden planet shop just round the corner from McDonald's, the sign now simply says "WARHAMMER" in massive block capitals. I was walking along pissing myself laughing as soon as I seen it, got some right dodgy looks :lol:

What's Warhammer?

Sounds a lot like Wuuhhhrrrraammer, but I guess its something different?
 
The last McClaren sketch is one of the funniest things I've listened to. I love how camp he's become.

On a side note, I bumped into Andy on Wembley way before the final and he was a thoroughly nice fella.
 
Hated that lenny biscuits sh*te he did. Pleased it appears to have died a death. Enjoy the alderman stuff for some weird reason :lol:

Annoys ne how he doesnt have a go back at bob when hes takung the piss out of Sunderland. Particularly considering he could have a field day with Bob coming from boro.

I think he’s a great foil for Bob. And his contributions to the Adrian Lewis sketches have got better and better.
