Well that is a start. The treatment is clearly working already.

Keep it up. Do you have access to the Dave channel? I could earmark a couple of crackers for you.

It is odd how many people don't like Bryden. He is Welsh of course. And he does do unflattering impressions of Mitchel whom people like (they like "posh people").

He is good though, although how much is down to the writers or him, I'm not sure. He certainly interacts very well.

I'm surprised how many (elsewhere) hadn't realised how much Lee is the star.

I'm onto it. To get the benefit from comedy i.e. find it extra funny, you need to watch it without the "inner critic" dominant. That is to "lose yourself in it". It's a bit like Krishnamurti used to say about the observer and the observed. You need the absence of the observer - just the observed. But that last bit will confuse you even more.

Just look at it like a child might, without all that baggage you carry around in your cynical mind.

Or just poor yourself a strong drink if that works (and your not a depressive drinker).

What’s the hold up?

Nah to the drink, l am more partial to a line of coke and a couple of E’s!
Seriously, Gravi, I never get get depressed, it attracts bad luck. No baggage either, l admit to being a cynic though!

You really need to get your haemorrhoids sorted, they make you grumpy!

I'm not grumpy, I was just trying to explain something very important. But I failed. I'm not surprised, it can be difficult to understand. By "baggage" I meant the storehouse of thought.

Anyway, on checking it seems Dave has finally decided to have a break from showing three episodes a night, for now at least. But there is one on Tuesday at 10pm with Charlie Brooker and Michael Ball. It. like most, is a good one.

And of course the new ones are still being shown on Friday on BBC1.

Love it. Laugh out loud. But haven't seen it in a year or two.

A spell in prison, eh. Still you're out now and free to watch what the hell you want!

Actually, there are two on tonight on Dave from 10pm. The second one is a compilation.
