You won’t feel that you have any choice once you’ve sat through this - BBC News have announced that Mong and Bint’s James Corden and Mathew Horne have signed up to make a new comedy sketch show for BBC Three.

I shit you not.

Worse, the once respected television corporation have described it as: “traditional comedy entertainment show in the style of Morecambe and Wise”

Which is tantamount to sacrilege. What business do a moon headed clip and his fat mate who couldn’t write an original gang if he was possessed by Marty Feldman have attempting to be Morecambe & Wise?

Jesus, what the hell is going on here? What next?

This really is an insult not only to Eric and Ernie but to our sensibilities. Mong and Bint is as funny as Auschwitz, award or no award - how come the pair of nomarks have this particular gig when Vic and Bob aren’t on TV, when legitimate double acts around the country are converging on Edinburgh this summer to get their work noticed?

The BBC is letting us all down, not least Corden and Horne who are way out of their depth.

Demand your licence fee back! (Or just don’t watch it)

So massive congratulations to Harry Hill, whose TV Burp has received a worthy honour from the British Academy and earned its wings at last, after several years of Saturday tea-time madness.

He deserves nothing less for at the very least arranging fights between different foodstuffs, slow elderly people and animals, and providing superb comedy relief on a Saturday before Primeval starts.

Hill himself was typically bonkers on the night, but it was a superb result only tempered by the ridiculous arse kissing that took place giving Gavin and Stacey success in the face of stronger and funnier competition.

Congratulations also to Bruce Forsyth, who after celebrating his 80th birthday this year was awarded a BAFTA Fellowship, the academy’s highest honour.  All those spinning wheels and prat falls, dancing having a rant at the camera must have seemed worth it, eh Brucie?

Following the frankly ridiculous success seen by the risible Gavin and Stacey at the BAFTA presentation on Sunday, the improbably named Boyd Hilton - TV editor of Heat magazine (we’re scraping it here, chaps) told the BBC

“I think it won because it’s a well-observed, flat-out-funny show with a cast of funny and identifiable characters,” he told the BBC News website.

Hilton believes the success of Gavin and Stacey “is a justification for the channel all by itself”.

Eh?

Despite a the presence of a couple of Britain’s most talented comic actors (how strong are your drugs, Brydon?), it remains  pale and lifeless squib of a show, that tries too hard to be a cross between The Royle Family and, well The Royle Family.

We’ll look back on this one day and laugh… at how blind you all were.
