[EdibleExplosives]

On Thursdays at 10pm on BBC2 (starts tonight). 6 episodes as usual.*

Trailer.

*May contain traces of Limmy.

Edit: Meant to put the day/time in the title. Would be great if a mod can fix it.

 

[HigXx]

Hate Limmy with a burning passion, looking forward to this!

 

[EdibleExplosives]

Welp, I made the thread and forgot it was even on. Will have to catch up on iPlayer.

 

[Memento Mori]

He's right about Danny Dyer. I've been watching Eastenders for the first time ever.

 

[Scuderia]

That interview with the time guy.

"...yes."

 

[Atrophis]

Happy to see Limmy though his section wasn't that great.

Barry Shitpeas and Philomena killing it as usual.

 

[f0rk]

That was a really good Brain Cox impression lol

 

[RedShift]

Awesome as usual.

The bit at the end with the split personality advert shouldn't have made me laugh as much as it did.

 

[EdibleExplosives]

The immigration part was brilliant. Really enjoyed Limmy/Shitpeas/Cunk.

Thank fuck they got rid of the 'chat' bit at the end of the show.

 

[Blue Lou]

It's the first time I've seen Limmy. He didn't seem to add much, the Russel Brand thing was a while ago too so it felt a bit dated.

The "Finding chemo'" gag because there were so many bald men on Eastenders was very dark.

I like Philomena Cunk but I'm not too sure about giving her, her own segment of the show.

 

[CrashBandicoot]

Hate Limmy with a burning passion, looking forward to this!

Srsly though he's really hit and miss, love him but its a shame this will be his first exposure to a lot of people and it was a bit shite. Apart from the peeling fence paint bit.

 

[BlazingDarkness]

What is clocks?

Ahaha.

I like Philomena Cunk but I'm not too sure about giving her, her own segment of the show.

I think she's the best 'character', she's hilarious. Also, wouldn't surprise me if she doesn't have her own segment, it was probably just a one off thing, even though it promises more.

 

[Betta Lines]

Cunk's new segment was the best bit! I had to watch it again because I was laughing too much

 

[BlazingDarkness]

Cunk's new segment was the best bit! I had to watch it again because I was laughing too much

Yeah
It's pretty hard to balance stupid-stupid and stupid-funny, I think she does that persona well

 

[7aged]

I think they should name her professor Philomena Cox from now on

 

[Slowdive]

I really liked it, loved the Philomema Cunk segment.

 

[Atrophis]

It's the first time I've seen Limmy. He didn't seem to add much, the Russel Brand thing was a while ago too so it felt a bit dated.

Go to youtube, search Adventure Call.

 

[wetflame]

Go to youtube, search Adventure Call.

Or Mr Mulvaney - Shoplifting, this is the only thing I'd seen of him before and it's amazing.

 

[mclem]

I loved the Cunkumentary - I'm a sucker for authoratative-sounding stupidity (see also: Look Around You, The Day Today) although I'm not entirely sure it fit with the feel of the rest of the programme. Nevertheless, the Coxy mannerisms were spot-on.

 

[TheHollowNight]

Cunk, Shitpeas & Stanhope are all great regulars in the Wipe saga, Limmy, ehhhh, not so sure. Last year he really didn't warm to me much with that whole Newsnight Twitter skit.

 

[War Peaceman]

Completely agreed. I loved it, but I do wonder if Philomena Cunk was in it too much.

Limmy's segment, I was very uncertain about it for a while, but I think I came around to it. I think.

 

[Jedeye Sniv]

The best bit of Cunk was right at the end of her doc when she's looking at trees and asks bewildered "What are THESE? And why are they everywhere??" pissed myself laughing, so stupid.

 

[slit]

I thought this thread was going to be about a constipated man.

 

[TheHollowNight]

I thought this thread was going to be about a constipated man.

Oh you!

 

[Atrophis]

Phil Mitchells post-coitus groaning is still giving me nightmares.

 

[Tokubetsu]

The best bit of Cunk was right at the end of her doc when she's looking at trees and asks bewildered "What are THESE? And why are they everywhere??" pissed myself laughing, so stupid.

Haha loved that bit too.

 

[Guerrillas in the Mist]

Or Mr Mulvaney - Shoplifting, this is the only thing I'd seen of him before and it's amazing.

The stoner character is fantastic as well.

 

[mclem]

Phil Mitchells post-coitus groaning is still giving me nightmares.

I fear that might be the new "You're joking. The Pope? ... Oh my God."

 

[Jo Shishido's Cheeks]

The Doug Stanhope segment was his best so far for me. This was a good show, which is a relief as the year wipe was pretty hit and miss.

 

[firehawk12]

Woof. Other than Stanhope, the non-Brooker parts were really bad.

 

[Yen]

Love Limmy, his vines are fantastic. Limmy's Show is also worth a watch.

 

[SKINNER!]

Wasn't aware that Limmy was in it until I watched the show. Brooker, Stanhope and now Limmy. Fuck aye!! Love the Cunk bits. Not sure why but she cute.

 

[wenis]

Cunk was funny, but I was also high as shit.

 

[EdibleExplosives]

 

[Empty]

i like that they gave cunk more than just echoing shitpeas with slightly worse delivery but the interview part was a bit too ali g. rest of the doc was great.

 

[Messofanego]

I think that was the most I've laughed with a Wipe episode yet. Great stuff.

I'm equally baffled about Russel Brand as Limmy is: is he one of us or one of them? Whichever side, he's still a pretentious cunt.

 

[Blue Lou]

Trail for tonight's show.

[EdibleExplosives]

GET IT UP.

 

[Yen]

That was disturbing

 

[EdibleExplosives]

I didn't think he was being serious about Edward Penishands until that clip.

 

[Jackpot]

I didn't think he was being serious about Edward Penishands until that clip.

Ditto. Here's some more:

[Blue Lou]

I've just looked it up..

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0101799/

A door-to-door dildo saleswoman stumbles across Edward, and upon discovering the...advantages of his hand-substitutes, brings him home, where he falls in love with her daughter.

This Morning in 97 seconds was amazing. Shitpeas on form, Cunk.. just Cunk! Limmy.. I'm warming to.

 

[HigXx]

Thought he was just taking the piss about Edward Penishands till he showed the clip! I'm having nightmares tonight!

The 90 second cutdown of This Morning was really great!

Limmy was horrible as usual.

 

[spunodi]

"Wettest on record since December 1993...




...And your mum!"

I nearly fell over!

 

[mclem]

Moment of the show for me was:

Of course, there's no point fighting crime if you don't know what crime is. That's where rules come in. But what is rules? A rules is basically a collection of laws. The first example being the Ten Commandments which were left on a hill by God. Many of those laws - killing, gravity, and the one about not interfering with oxes - are still used today. Even though God's dead.

 

[Intheflorsh]

Limmy's Show was sometimes pretty great. The man at least has the potential to be funny.

 

[wenis]

this episode was on fire the entire time. goddamn.

 

[Xun]

I forgot to watch the first episode, but the second one was great.

I've always been a fan of Brooker.

 

[paradox121]

Philopmena Cunk is amazing. It's such a simple thing, but the way she always confuses her verbs ("But what is rules?") is comic genius. And she nails that look of 'suspicious amazement' when investigating things.

And I love "One in twenty people has been a victim of crime. Which means nineteen out of twenty people are criminals."

 

[broadwayrock]

I'm not a fan of the Philopmena Cunk segment. Its just an less funny rehash of what Sacha Baron Cohen did on the Da Ali G Show.

The Jake Yapp bit was pretty good and brief (unlike the Limmy bit).
