Brilliant!

Paul Whitehouse in one of the superb monologues from The Fast Show.
It’s pretty difficult to pick one out from the available selection as every visit of this character to our screens was one of joy and pleasure - and proof of Whitehouse’s ability to draw and portray comedy characters with apparent ease.

Harry Enfield Storm

Apparently, this is rascist.

Not insulting or demeaning to northerners, but racially offensive to Filipinos. I hope all of you have read the replies to the earlier post about this clip.

I Saw You Coming

Seeing as Harry Enfield is all the rage this week… (see the last post if you’ve been living under a rock)

Where’s Your Sense of Humour, Philipines?

Apparently:
A petition organised by the Philippine Foundation called for the “re-education” of the BBC.

It said: “This particular sketch is completely disgraceful, distasteful and a great example [...]

Harry and Paul

[singlepic=53,320,240,,right]A welcome return for Harry Enfield and Paul Whitehouse on Friday evening, with the “I Saw You Coming” man on deliciously rude form, the posh scaffolders discussing modern art and an amusing 1920s version of The Bourne Identity.

I warned you – I Saw You Coming from Ruddy Hell! It’s Harry and Paul.
You WILL like it

Ruddy Hell, What’s Wrong with Everyone? (OR: Why am i the only one who enjoyed Harry Enfield’s latest series?)

So I continue to wait for news about a return for Harry Enfield and Paul Whitehouse’s bloody good series Ruddy Hell! It’s Harry and Paul.
A great portion of so-called comedy “experts” seriously attacked the series in the press and online, and frankly the attacks were unwarranted, especially in light of Armstrong & Miller’s first BBC [...]
