It's good but Random Spirit Lover is probably my favourite album of all time. Not a single weak track, and Krug hadn't quite disappeared up the 'who needs melodies and riffs when you can just mash the synth for a while' wormhole.

102.1 The Edge is listenable again!

Stephen Fry was probably my favourite TV performer of all. I'd argue he was even quicker witted than Paul.

I always thought he fit the show perfectly. He was there because there had to be a host/narrator figure, not to be part of the show himself.

Arguments with Greg aside, the only way Clive was part of the act was his increasingly fast 'goodbye and good night' routine. And really, the more he sped it up, the more time was left over for the performers, so everybody won.

It wasn't! Enn Reitel once wrapped a verse of "Baa Baa Black Sheep"!

Yeah. When we first discovered the show, it was novel. Now we always know what's coming.

— the ability to make Ryan Stiles crack completely with a non sequitur about tapioca or the arctic tern

Even more jarring is Ryan in the early years of the UK show, when he was giving everything 110%, versus by the time the US version came along and he was happy to coast on his greatest hits.

Checking in from 2017 just to say that I think the KFC space simulator was the single funniest idea this show ever had.

Miller's barely restrained glee at Hardy's date was everything.

And a vicar with a sense of humour!

BEES?

"Why Pooh, Mr. President?"
"I don't know! Just Winnie…the…Pooh."

Hey, Deng Xiao-Ping died!

"Chewables AND the swallowing kind!" felt a lot like a line Kimmy Schmidt would say.

I don't watch Previously Ons (on any show) because I don't want to be spoiled by obscure random scenes from the distant past showing up.

Terrible fate for Wun Wun :(

I think this will all be very important going forward. The Hound, the Brotherhood Without Banners and the Lord of Light are all characters that would have been tossed aside by now if that wasn't the case.

The Baratheon insignia is not a mountain ripping peoples' heads off, so everything checks out.
