I wouldn't take anything he did as seriously serious. The Brand Spanking New London Party? Seriously.

Again, that's all Rainbow George. Even Russell thinks he's out there.
Listen again to Saturday's show via the Radio 2 website and all will become clear. That petition is to try and persuade Russell to stand... which he's categorically said he won't. I think Rainbow George is serious though - even about dodgems on the underground. |

I'd actually agree with your picks there,. Except for Not Going Out which I have never seen. Shame it is too late for Peter Serafinowicz.

I'm biased, I love Lee Mack. He's a smashing chap.

Only three nominations per category? Not much choice really considering the wealth of British comic talent out there. Can't really have a verdict on anything though, having not watched Gavin & Stacey, Not Going Out, Star Stories, Lead Balloon...lots basically.

I'm a bit confused as to the time period it covers too. As it stands it looks like a pretty weak year for comedy.
The fact that I didn't exactly love the series I plumped for in the 'Best television comedy' category isn't a good sign. |
