Charlie Brookers Screenwipe

I thought he was a real person:alienblush:, Just some comedian I have never heard of.:lol:
You can see him in the Falling Off a Log bit pretending to do director things. Because I watched the series in reverse for some bizarre reason that I have yet to explain even to myself, by the time I got to that episode I was already well aware of Barry Shitpeas and was confused by his presence, until I read up on the show some more and found out who he really was.

Always makes me smile when he pretends to shout at his staff, you can see him wanting to bust out laughing.
That's true. Barry Shitpeas is an assumed name for the show. Serial Thread Killer is correct. I apologise for laughing. :)

A apologise on trek bbs :eek: careful you could start a trend.:p:lol:

I've done worse than that. I've agreed with someone on the other side of a debate on TNZ.:eek:
Bob do you have no shame.:klingon:
 
What's more, Grace Dent's usually pointless soap round-up was comparatively short and wasn't as boring as normal due to Phil Mitchell's adventures in crack.

I think it started a small trend, I saw a few people do it after that... didn't last long though...

I'm wondering when How TV Ruined Your Life will be on now and when the new series of Newswipe is.
 
Btw. it's especially nice that there are some interesting things on British tv when there's absolutely nothing on in the US for weeks.

Yeah. It's our time to shine!
Something for everyone too, from Doctor Who to Upstairs Downstairs, to Rock & Chips and Charlie Brooker.

Plus Primeval starts tomorrow.

Oh I forgot about rock and chips, that's the trouble with TV putting all the good stuff on at once, I always miss something.
 
Anyone watch this "10 OClock Live" thing with Brooker on it?

I do like how Jimmy Carr and David Mitchell dressed up and Brooker is just wearing his usual getup. It seems fairly... blah, but at least Brooker gets to do his thing for a few minutes.

Oh wow, it really is 10 minutes of Screenwipe and Newswipe surrounded by 30 minutes of blandness. :lol:
 
It has promise - Brooker and Mitchell's bits were excellent.

Biggest disappointment is that I work in the same department as the minister Mitchell interviewed... and we all hoped he'd savage him :D
 
Well Newswipe won a British Comedy Award last night. Digital Spy have a little interview with him backstage afterwards

I think you're right mate. Not sure whether it was a genuine laugh, or an emarrassed, uncomfortable laugh cause she didn't know what else to do, though.

I think it was I have to laugh or I would cry.
Having realized where her journalistic career has taken her.:lol:
