Dave Gorman is marginally less funny than discovering one has face cancer.

But then
you find so very few things funny, I can't count your opinion.

I'm working on the theory
That if Monty likes it, it's probably good, if he hates it, it's probably also good, but if he has no feelings either way it sucks.

I need to find some test cases to prove this theory.

I'll tell you tomorrow about David Corman, then
so you can add one fact to your theory.

Well, I already know he's quite funny
So Monty's dislike of him fits the pattern.

I've suddenly worked out who you remind me of.
Rowley Birkin QC.

He's much more like Noel Fielding in real life.

Boring, unfunny and wearing a silly hat?

(The Luggage is haunted..., Tue 26 Jul 2011, 13:22, Reply)

I was going to say " a bit of a North London Ponce"
But I've heard Fielding clam to come from my side of the river originally.
Anyway, while I should hate him I find him funny for some reason.

Fielding that is, not Monty.

Although I do find Monty's curmudgeonly antics funny too.

Hence the Rowley Birkin QC comparison.

(The Luggage is haunted..., Tue 26 Jul 2011, 13:28, Reply)

Oh indeed.
Fits his own on-line persona well, but I suspect we are all a little different in real life.

except me.

His 'Meeting other people called Dave Gorman' thing is perhaps the least funny idea I've ever heard.
The Final Solution is, by comparison, a laugh-a-minute LOL-fest of mirth and chorltes.

I will not reveal where these things stand with me (i.e. in absolute factual reality)
until or unless Monty answers as I am trying to map Monty's opinions onto reality and I do not wish to bias him. My predictions for his responses are in a sealed envelope which will not be opened until I get such answers.
