Always said Diane Morgan has been criminally underused in comedy. This looks quite funny smile

You were right - I reckon she's the best of the lot (with Sian Gibson a close second)

Mandy started its 3rd series last night, catch up on iBotherer if you didn't see both episodes. Oh and her 'Who Do You Think You Are?' episode is worth watching too - some poignant stuff, but also to watch in the knowledge (as she discusses) that she did a spoof of it a couple of years ago.

Who knew that the Americans would understand, never mind appreciate Philomena Cunk's humour, but apparently it's a really big programme over there now?

IMO she's a Marmite personality. Most people seem never to have heard of her, many find her comedy unfunny, I think she's a genius. Her humour will not appeal to fans of Mike and Bernie Winters.

Philomena Cunk is one of the great comedy creations of our time. Diane Morgan is the thinking man's comedienne.

I've just binge-watched the series (the episodes are only about 15/20 mins long). I've come to the conclusion that Diane Morgan is nuts. A bit predictable at times, but always with a twist that comes from a warped mind. The rat episode was side-splitting.

Some people won't like it at all.
