"Would you rather be castrated with a rusty spoon or have your eyes gouged out with an allen key"-type comparison right there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bennett Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Donald J. Trump ✔@realDonaldTrump D.C. had no problems last night. Many arrests. Great job done by all. Overwhelming force. Domination. Likewise, Minneapolis was great (thank you President Trump!). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Sanchez Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 John Bishop is the Scouse version of Janey Godley Michael McIntyre is the English middle class version of Janey Godley I have never heard or seen mention of Janey Godley outside of this website Make of these three statements what you will 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Does Godley do observational comedy? I don't mind folk like Michael McIntyre as there is a place for that type of comedy even if it's wildly overdone I just don't know what it is Godley does apart from those voiceovers and beefing with fitba fans on Twitter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Michael McIntyre is a master of early Saturday night family entertainment. It might not be your thing, but the people who went before him were fucking awful. Bruce Forsyth? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 (edited) I appreciate that in general, he's a scummy, racist b*****d but Jim Davidson was cracking entertainment on Big Break and The Generation Game back in the day. Les Dennis on Family Fortunes provided cracking entertainment that Vern doesn't bring. And finally, Beadle's About.

I really don't mind McIntyre maybe he just triggers the parts of my brain that go into a reflexive pleasant tv coma. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTChris Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 The difference between all these people and the current crop is that they were at least earnest whereas nowadays all these programmes have this knowing, winky tone to them. One reason I think Strictly is successful is that it doesn’t have that, they play it straight, so to speak. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theroadlesstravelled Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Comparing Godley to Bishop and McIntyre is probably the highest praise she could get. They are at least a little bit funny. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 I'm not sure what it'll do to my career prospects to tell my boss and his boss that people who share Janey Godley voiceovers have the lowest most rudimentary sense of humour, little different to paying money to see Michael McIntyre.Lad at my work was watching a YouTube of McIntyre the other night, talking about metabolism. I encourage you to google it just to see how horrifically bad it is. The lad was chuckling away and I was cringing so hard I heard a crack. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
