How many seconds did you last?
What is it with that laughter track?

Even as a massive Vic&bob fan, slightly less than a minute.

I’m still laughing at Les and the chives 22 years later.

Struggling.

Picked up guitar after 1.5 minutes

On in background, it’s not great, getting a bit better but still pretty tired, don’t think their style works in a sitcom, that other thing they did a few years ago (Catterick I think it was called?) Was pretty poor too.

+1 for Les and the Chives, man with the stick, Graham Lister, Morrisey the Consumer Monkey and Novelty Island

Where’s the man with the stick?

I saw a clip on Breakfast the other day and it was so disappointingly bad that I can’t bring myself to watch.

I felt I had to laugh as MrsLister was whinging that it was terrible.
But it was hard work.
Maybe it’ll get better? I’ll try next week…

It got better as it went on. It took me back as the gags were so similar to 20 years ago.

I thought it wasn’t a complete disaster.

I’ll still be watching next week

Half an hour of pap to get to the hole in the wall gag, which was good bit preceded by half an hour of pap

Cringeworthy and so bad it was brilliant.

Some really terrible bits especially near the start but it got better some very funny parts and the signing is always great.

You never where Vic’s biggest fan

that other thing they did a few years ago (Catterick I think it was called?) Was pretty poor

You take that back! I had that on DVD for Christmas it was genius

Some funny lines, but that stupid laughter track really annoyed, lasted 20 mins. Might try again next week, if nothing else is on…..

Recorded it but have low expectations.

It’s not brilliant MTBfix but it’s better than any other comedy out there just now.

Well, compared to other ‘comedies’ on TV at the moment, I thought it was v.funny.

Utter codswollop, lasted 400ths of a second in the time it took me to press the channel change button on the remote.
Far better things to do than listen/watch anything these two imbeciles try and create.. Appauled that we’ve funded yet another programme that brings there two oik’s back on the screen.

Shame I don’t live in Tunbridge Wells as that rant right there could almost come from Mr Angry of TW!!

What the hell do you see in thier “comedy”??? eh, what is it??

i didn’t see the program but love this [video]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqok3IVGGmg[/video] 😀

Vic & Bob, the Marmite of comedy.
Better than beige crap like Miranda.

Loddrik – it wasn’t the chives. It was the soil that the chives were in.

I wont watch anything by Vic and Bob now. I was a MASSIVE fan of theirs (not Newman/Vic) and had all their stuff. Shooting Stars was flogged to death and that was the turning point for me.

My favourite lines are:

Are you looking at my bra?

Time for my morning wine

😆

I liked it, and the 13-year-old me who loved Big Night Out would have thought it was hilarious.

Whenever Vic Reeves is mentioned, I am obliged to mention that he was at school with my mam.

Not a fan then bikebouy? 😀

I giggled like a 12 year old schoolgirl all the way through it. Brill!

Tunbridge Wells

My bestmate used to bump into Bob literally all the time. He was always looking down/peeved.

Whats the closest modern comedy to the old V&B? Mighty Boosh?

Whats the closest modern comedy to the old V&B? Mighty Boosh?

I think so, yes. I also love that.

The Nightmare of Milky Joe is pure genius.

Me and bestmate used to joke we’d end up like this:

I thought it was great, funniest thing I’ve seen in ages.
OK, not all the gags worked, but there were so many that it didn’t matter.

Is it giro day?

Is it being repeated? Might have a look tonight

You don’t have to wait for it to repeated. This is the 21st century. There’s all kind of bonkers modern shit going down at the BBC nowadays. Your license fee literally funds magic…..

Behold…. witchcraft!

It took me about 5 years to warm up to Noel Fielding, I quite like MB, far prefer Noel on his own though 😀

Do you have to be high on some kind of drug to watch V&B, you know in a student humour kinda way?
Clearly I haven’t got any of that in me, but suspect the producers of the programme have in some small way convinced the BBC that there are still folks around (about 400) that actually get what V&B might call humour.

That’s me done on this.

Glad that some liked it and found it funny and rekindled previous incarnations of their particular endeavours.

The only thing good I can think of out of any V&B outputs is getting that blond woman back on telly whilst all around her was falling apart, probably kept her sane.

Just watched it, that was brilliant. 🙂

I think waaaay past bad it was making in roads into good, only a few mind. anyway its on series link so ill check out the next one at somepoint!
