Along_the_Wire have you watched the clip?
Millsy I haven’t to be fair.
He got me into Bill Burr
I’ve not yet either, but Standhope used to be great, not sure of his current state. The one after this clip was great too.
Homegrove Stanhope is ace. That new show is surprisingly great as well, cheers for the link.
Tbh I’m surprised Hannu has the temperament for his comedy.
Hugo likes him 👍
Millsy LOL. Does Standhope crap on for hours with no-one listening?
Strange but true, Doug Stanhope is best mates with Johnny Depp.
hugopal Strange
Why strange?
New Bill Burr on Netflix June 6th. 🥳
Fair play to Homegrove, it was him who first got me into Roy ‘Chubby’ Brown.
LT42 Why strange?
Because Stanhope isn’t anywhere near the level of fame as Depp, and I had the impression he was someone who wasn’t so keen on the limelight off of stage.
But there are clear overlaps in their personalities and interests.
Anyone seen Gervais’ new show?
LT42 Yeah.. it’s very good in places.

Half way through, patchy but worth a look.
Just watched it, nothing particularly groundbreaking but quite funny.

Depp also appeared on the Fast Show and is friends (to a degree) with Paul Whitehouse.
The opening 5-10 minutes of Gervais are pretty good. A lot of the rest of it is meh, but some is quite funny.
benson yeah good summary.
benson yeah same here, Bens. I actually fell asleep. I’m starting to tire of the comedic style where they just rant about political stuff and such and dress it up as comedy. I’ve been watching a lot of Steven Wright lately to get away from that. Just witty jokes. Back to basics.
bosstrabs I’d forgotten about that.
I think at least one of Whitehouse’s kids went to my secondary school.
On of my current favs is in town fyi.
