Admin phantom Posted September 30, 2022 Admin Report Share Posted September 30, 2022 Not sure how many people saw the re-invented show on Sky Max last night? I have to say I was pleasantly surprised with how good it was, there were plenty of laughs during the show, and the added bonus of a bit of Lee Trundle singing Presenter Matt Lucas is a natural when it comes to comedy but have to admit I had not heard of his co-presenter Elis James before, but they worked well as a duo Plenty of nods and recognition of the original hosts Baddiel and Skinner. Available on Sky catch up and also on Sky Max again, looks like it will be on for a few weeks building up to the World Cup 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Red Posted September 30, 2022 Report Share Posted September 30, 2022 Watched it out of curiosity, was much better than I was expecting. A lot of the original features are still there, with Lee Trundle in the Jeff Astle singing role at the end (Elis James is a Swansea fan and Trundle is his favourite player like Astle was for Frank Skinner) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glynriley Posted September 30, 2022 Report Share Posted September 30, 2022 (edited) Only noticed in was on on Wednesday when they advertised it during Never Mind The Buzzcocks. Whacked it on a series link so will give it a watch over the weekend. Sounds promising if they've kept a similar format to the original.

And Its Smith Posted September 30, 2022 Report Share Posted September 30, 2022 Haven’t seen it yet but anything with Elis James in it is good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only caugt the last ten minutes or so but it seemed almost like a frame by frame homage to the original series! Caught the end of Phoenix From The Flames and saw the Trundle singing. The set is more or less an exact copy from what I remember as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallystreet Posted September 30, 2022 Report Share Posted September 30, 2022 I was apprehensive of waching it, but enjoyed it a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
