finally, some xlters who like chris morris. last time i started a thread about him then only people that posted were angry prudes with no sense of irony. the blue jam radio shows were excellent too. thanks for reminding me about dave schneider.. that guy has such a funny face. no one's mentionned (morris' long-time collaborator) peter baynham though. the little welsh guy who's turned up in shows with lee & herring, big train with kevin eldon, partridge and is currently directing steve coogan's animated sitcom on bbc2. a lot of the jam/bluejam/jaaaaam/brass eye/day today material was spawned from he & morris' twisted imaginations. my girlfriend hates jam. but she has a sensitive soul. i, on the other hand, am dead inside. |

Sir Christopher Morris is the funniest guy ever. this is great news. I wish people would lighten up a bit about his comedy, people make more of a fuss about a spoof on pedos, than paedophillia itself, (unless one moves in next door). surely they are more 'twisted' than him? anyway I can't wait. TV is so crap now. |

The new show Morris is working on has a tentative title of 'Box Of Slices' (a play on TVGoHome's Nathan Barley vehicle 'Cunt') So far the pilot has been filmed, Jimmy Carr auditioned but never got the gig and from what I can make out seems to be goading modern life in the same style as 'The Armando Iannucci Shows'. Looks very good. |

i hope the Armando Ianucci shows get released on DVD. I only managed to see 3 out of the 6 episodes and every one was absolutely delightful |

peter baynam is a funny guy, especially his cooking for one on lee & herring. i was watching a couple of old friday/saturday night armistice episodes only last night, they still make laugh really hard. patrick marber aint too bad either, although i always got the impression stuart lee hated him. |

I think Stewart Lee hated most people though. Saw him live at the Edinburgh Festival in 2000, which was pretty funny. A year or two before that I saw both him & Richard Herring on their 'This Morning With Richard Not Judy' Tour. Did you ever hear Fist Of Fun when it began on the radio? Lee's "True Animal Fables" were much funnier there than they ever were on TV. The whole thing was actually. I find TV confines comedy a lot of the time. That's why Brass Eye & The Day Today were such great programs, they adopted & subverted the generic conventions of TV to make them part of the comedy, rather than simple submitting to it as a vehicle. I think that was one of the most accomplished things about the recent Garth Merenghi's Dark Place on C4.. what they were saying/doing wasn't always especially funny. But the way the program was made was. |

I love all of Morris' stuff. If he does something to do with TVGH that would be fucking awesome. Alan Partridge is probably my favourite though. |

from Morris's 6 months that changed a year article in the Guardian: "Twelve days after the collapse of the World Trade Centre, amazed rescue workers uncover an entire office floor that is still doing business. Despite falling 890 feet and being buried under 12,000 tons of rubble, all workers at Leeman Sachs Trading Inc are unharmed. They have remained at their desks since the bank’s Tokyo HQ saw TV pictures of the burning towers, called them up and ordered them to keep working. ‘We were still sitting at our desks when we landed in the rubble,’ said one dealer. ‘I actually completed three transactions on the way down.’ In fact trading at the buried floor has been so good since 11 September, the bank may sue the New York Fire Dept for digging them out" priceless! |

Keyfumbler: You have impeccable taste. All of those are great shows. That was a hilarious quote by the way. |

Haha I remember that. I remember laughing out loud when I read about the intelligent missiles which were so intelligent that as soon as they were deployed, they detonated in the air, as they realised that violence only leads to more violence :) |
