Can't Cook, Won't Cook


A new show where some people who can't cook, sit around a kitchen and refuse to cook.

Haha. I love it. Just finished watching the entire second series.
I love the sitcom ideas too.

The Lively Birds. Possible Denise Van Outen/Kelly Brook vehicle. There are some women, they are slags.

And Trevor, the small faced man. Best scene was when him and Nathalie were playing St George and the dragon and Stewart Lee shouted 'Kick him in the head and small face!'

The best bits are of SL and RH on the sofa, watching it now I didn't find any of the sketches funny except 'When Things Fall Over, Spill or Get Knocked Out of Cupboards'. Putner and Eldon are class.

Sketches: Literally seeing what norman wisdom on acid was like, was funny as hell.

and favourite lines

"i'm not amish, i just like the clothes"

with SL adjusting his clealry amish hat.

Linking back further, to fist of fun 1, i also loved "the conkies" amish offshoot cult, with a cut off date of the early 80's for all technology.

My favourite line.........?

"They're all sperm whales by the time I'm finished with them........".
And this on a Sunday afternoon.

Yup have to agree The Norman Wisdom on acid sketch almost made me die at the time, and still funny all these years on. I was at one of the TMWRNJ transmissions(yes it was going out live!) I drank too much beer before the start of show and needed to pee from about two minutes after they closed the studio for the show. Needless to say I then suffered one of the most uncomfortable hours of my life, many times during this hour(especially towards the end)I wondered how L+H would cope with me standing up and relieving myself on live TV, fortunately though good sense prevailed and their impromptu live televisual urination defences went untested and I had my wee on Richard Herring* in the slightly less broadcast but still quite public Riverside Studio bar, and although half drenched and quite taken aback he did see the funny side and even managed to crack the joke "It's to early to be pissed" before I'd even zipped myself up. Now thats a comedy genius.

'Golden Graham's - they deserve respect.' 'No, they deserve to be flushed, uneaten, down a toilet'.

[Golden Grahams] ...Which sounds like not so much the name of a cereal as a name of a service you might see advertised on a soho phonebox
