chortleRemember, kids! Mark Thomas knows a lot of very, very dull facts and is fully prepared to pretend that they are actually comedy, and repeat them at you.
A lot.

I quite like Mark Thomas, just not as a comedian. It's weird.I particularly remember one show where he was stood in front of a giant flowchart diagram of the companies that now run the UK rail networks.
Ben Elton is similarly enthusiastic, but repellant. But Blackadder was so good. It's all very confusing.

I'm not fully up to date.I just wiki'd and there are two more books I have not read yet.
And a new one out soon. But I've read the others and liked
most of them as good quick reads with a nice dash of vitriol.
