Mischeivously finished off the tub of Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Fudge Brownie after making a delicious chicken noodle soup from the remains and stock of the Sunday roast. Enjoying the irreverent cattyness of The Daily Show. My word, I would love it if we had a 'Daily Show' for UK politics.
But who would present it? Simon Amstell? Jonathan Ross? Needs to be someone with charisma, cutting sarcasm and a big brain. Perhaps there is no such person yet in the UK media. Come on BBC, make it happen ... no actually, Channel 4!
Was grumpy today at work. A lesson for me not to let my conviction drive me round the bend.
All in all, looking forward to a week on a beach in Sri Lanka with Fish.
i am from the u.s. and love the daily show too. charlie brooker's newswipe on bbc4 is the brit equivalent and is pretty great. it's only on once a week but you can see it on bbc iplayer and youtube.
ReplyDeleteHi! You are right, Newswipe is brilliant. But needs to be daily rather than weekly (and for only 6 episodes?!?!) and maybe a bit more political leaning ... where is my pen, I must write to the BBC!
