I have never worked out if Miranda Hart is a pre-operative or post-operative transsexual.
Not in the slightest bit funny either way.

She was even worse than usual when she appeared on Big Fat Quiz Of The Year
Then again, she was probably only there so they weren't sued for false advertising.

Well, at least this year it didn't have Noel Fielding on it, and it had a couple of people who are funny when they're NOT reading a script.

Fuck that whole thing was dire this year, wasn't it?
David Walliams is repellant. Eddie Izzard is always out of his depth on things like that (see also his appearance on QI), Jonathon Ross is just a caricature of himself these days, and so is David Mitchell come to that. Miranda Hart was just Miranda Hart and all that involves and the last one was so bland that I can't even remember who it was.

Absolutely shite
I thought Izzard & Mitchell did well, considering what they had to put up with from the other teams.

The missing one was Jamie Oliver.

Mitchell is always reliable, but it's getting a bit repetitive.
It's might be more over exposure than he's actually less funny than he used to be though.

And I adore Izzard, I really do, I love his stand up and I love his acting and I want him to be briiliant in everything, but he's just not good at panel shows. I don't know why, but he just seems uncomfortable to me.

Izzard is your consummate professional.
But if he came round here....

Did you just quote Harry Enfield in an attempt to dismiss Eddie Izzard?
Anyone quoting Harry Enfield in a conversation about comedy instantly loses the argument.

It's Scarpwin's Law.

You were the one that sounded like him.

"but then I like Fielding...but which one is better?"

I think Scarpwin's Law may come back into play if you quote Hill. :-)

I guessed as much

Oh fuck.
That's Apeloverage and Enfield I've been compared to in the same thread. I need to go and have a long hard think about my life.

I agree with you here
He had a couple of decent moments, I think how appalling the others were helped him to look better, but still not great.

Not a programme I have ever watched. Doesn't sound like I have missed much.

( Fucking hell Jeff I am not a robot, Wed 4 Jan 2012, 14:53, Reply)

I generally quite like it.
Notwithstanding AA's opinion above, I loved the year that Richard Ayoade and Noel Fielding were a team on it. But this years was appallingly unfunny.
( scarpe We Stole Bikes, Wed 4 Jan 2012, 14:56, Reply)

I seriously cannot stand Fielding, and have no idea how in the fuck he became famous for being 'funny'

( Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Wed 4 Jan 2012, 15:01, Reply)

Hahahah.
This is why I would rarely argue with anyone over what they find funny because you can't help what makes you laugh, and he really makes me laugh. Not enough to make me start watching Buzzcocks again, but still...

Humour is entirely subjective, I agree
