Have I Got News For You

[Bazile]

Anyone see it last night ?

Very funny

I assume that the lawyers at the beeb , give it the once over before it's transmitted

[hc4361]

Last night? I watched it Friday.

[baza]

^^ so did I.

[ABerrant]

I never watch the short version on Fridays - I prefer the extended Monday fare Have I Got a Bit More News for You.

Similarly I never watch QI. My preference is the later shown QIXL.

[hc4361]

Who was on last night? According to my RT it was a different line up to Friday's episode

[ABerrant]

It's always the extended Friday show.

[Bazile]

some German ( i think ) bloke - and some woman who apparently has been suspended by UKIP

[hc4361]

Ah yes, the same line up. Extremely funny.

[hc4361]

Wehn is a very clever and funny man

[MargoTester]

German comedian Henning Wehn

[aelmpvw]

^ sounds like an oxymoron but he is very funny

[baza]

Best thing to come out of Germany imo.
I have watched it for years but still cannot work out how the scores are made up.

[hc4361]

I do think Paul Merton needs to make more a contribution. He used to be great on the show but now gives the impression he really can't be bothered

[Bazile]

From what i saw last night - i agree hc4361 .

He gives the impression that he has been forced at gun point , to do the show

[hc4361]

He was the same last series, baz. I find it very frustrating as he is more than capable of being on point and entertaining.

Funny you should bring that up hc, It was nearly 10min before he said a word in Fridays episode, as he seems to have no interest.

He also never seems to laugh when other panellist say something funny, and just gives that blank look.

Perhaps he's not well?

[hc4361]

Patsy, Paul has been red hot on the latest series of Just a Minute so I don't think he's ill.

Wish that would be on TV permanent.

[hc4361]

Me, too
