Have I Got News For You?

[Guest]

Fucking excellent program. Do you guys in the US get it? And I mean "get it" in both senses of the word. LOL

Very dry political humour, and they take the piss out of everyone.

Jack Dee is hosting it this week, and for an added bonus he's now got a beard. I've never thought of him as sexy before.

Must be a Brit thing, love.

Ted PM'd me and said it was an empty thread, is that why you ?

I think it was being buggy.

Yeah, that's why I

Haven't heard of it, but it sounds like it'd be great fun.

Never heard the title, Lou, let alone seen a sample.

What station is it, Lou?

What station is it, Lou?

BBC1.

I've been trying to find some features on it at the BBC website, but it all I've found dates back a year. It's a satyrical news quiz kind of thing.

Hey I love it! Paul Merton is my fav!

I don't get BBC 1 on Cable. I wonder if they have it on any of their international channels as well.

BBC1.

Hey I got that. When?

 

[matriarch]

Great programme Lou.
I missed it tonight, was watching a DVD of Singing in the Rain.

Did they by any chance touch on the great presidential campaign this evening????

 

[Just-Legal]

Ehehehe

Wait

WITH the beard he's sexy?

Lou - do you watch QI?

Speaking of QI, was watching Jonathan Ross (Woss) interview Stephen Fry, they had a clip of a documentary he did when he was younger and... oh my...

 

[Lauren Hynde]

What are the odds of it being aired on BBC Prime as well?

Brilliant!

DAMN I miss that show. I can still remember Swampy doing his stint ... he didn't answer a single question correctly, including the one to which his own name was the answer. And Eddie Izzard ... ah, heaven.

Wow, how to build my hopes up! I saw this thread - couldn't believe it was really about the uk show, and then when it was, started hoping it was coming over to the US somehow.

I've not seen it since the format changed.

Anyone care to err.. record it and under absolutely no circumstances at all send me a copy since that would be illegal. *cough*.

Sorry, just noticed that. Surely satirical rather than satyrical now that poor Angus has departed in shame? Mind you ... I'd pay good money to see a satyrical news program.

Love it in both incarnations. William Hague turned out to be a surprisingly good guest host.
