Isn't Jim Davidson the funniest comedian ever? He's just had me in hysterics with his show on BBC1, combining his trademark 70s-throwback bigotry with timing so shit he had to actually tell the audience it was the punchline. After a timid laugh to what was intended as the big pay-off he floundered: "Did you like that one, then? Here, let me tell you another..." All this capped off with a duet with Jim's son, as both of them murder <I>Father and Son</i>. More please, BBC! Only next time make the edge that Jim is close to a cliff edge... or Edge out of U2, twatting him one with a guitar. -- Griff's Movie Review Message Board

In reply to: Rich 's message, "I haven't started on the U2 tapes yet, Grigg, but I have been looking forward to 'em! Incidentally, the system crashed last night before I could send my "only kidding, Grigg, I liked your film really" post... the locations were really impressive. Who's the shorter guy with the black hair then? He was funny. And Bernie was very magnanimous about his housemates, even Mr.T. His tip to win it is Jim Jimmer..." on 23:19:38 06/29/01 Fri

Grigg, do you like: Jackie Wilson, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles, Eddie Grant and Desmond Dekker? (NT) -- Rich, 23:59:53 06/29/01 Fri

Listen to my tapes! Watch my videos! Post a review! Don't forget that the order the Prisoner stuff was shown in was the order in which the episodes were completed and available, screwing any story order to buggery, causing No.2s to leave, then come back...... there is a site out there that suggests a more logical, enjoyable order to watch them in, but I can't remember which one... it could be THIS ONE I guess... (NT) -- Rich, 00:03:01 06/30/01 Sat

Nah, I don't think it is that one, I've heard it's shite. I ordered the box set yesterday afternoon and it came this morning! How's that for speedy? I've got Prisoner on disc, yooooouu haven't, nyah nyah!! Soon as I'm not feeling shite I'll watch 'em, and I'll start from the start again. To be honest I haven't really heard much from those singers you mentioned, but Billy's got a Marvin Gaye CD I've been meaning to listen to. Eddy Grant's having a bit of a revival at the mo, isn't he? I'm not a big fan of Stevie Wonder, most of his songs are pretty dreary and dribble on for ages. I do like I Just Called to Say I Love You, cheesy as it is. (NT) -- Griff, 11:35:16 06/30/01 Sat
- I saw a little bit of that Jim Davidson show... he really is an arsehole, isn't he? What's more depressing than his feeble gags is the fact that there was a packed theatre laughing at them! Hey, Nightmare on Elm Street 4 was on last night and it's crap, so I think I might go and watch that in a minute while feeling sorry for myself and moaning about how shite I feel.

  - You fancy Jim Davidson, you do! Hey, here's a list of films on my "to see" list: Son of Frankenstein, Ghost of Frankenstein, Nightmare on Elm St. 4 & 5 and The Alternate Version of The Prisoner: The Chimes of Big Ben Just thought I'd mention that. Just saw Kiss The Girls... what rating did it get? You'll have to fuckin' wait and see, won't you, c***wallop? (NT) -- Rich, 12:12:25 06/30/01 Sat
    - Hey, Grigg, do you think you could ever murder someone? (NT) -- Rich, 12:14:32 06/30/01 Sat
