Slightly disappointed with the Christmas show.


Not up to the usual standard, although it was good to see Butterfield and the Attenborough impression was uncanny. Wogan was also a highlight.

A number of new sketches seemed very obvious and lazily thrown together.

Perhaps he didn't have time to work out the ideas properly?

That one got tedious pretty quickly as well.

Did he arks you?

Don't Vex me man! <Kisses Teeth> LOL

I also loved the frustrated husband[ sketch and also the passed/failed the test lol.

First time I've seen this show however and I liked it more than Catherine Tate - she should stick to Doccer Who ;)

I enjoyed the Christmas special. My favourite quotes were:

"I go to the youth centre and give out presents dressed as you know who...Princess Deearna"
"Quick! Somebody call nine hundred and ninety nine!"
"Is it an XBOX? It's better than a box!"

Oh, and how could I forget Britain's loudest man Derek Bannister?

GOOD EVENING!

I had never heard of this guy before, but I spent Christmas in England and happened to catch the Xmas Special and laughed until I cried. Would love to see them import this guy to the U.S.

"We're building a Starbucks inside of Starbucks so you don't have to leave to go to Starbucks!"

I wouldn't like him to get bogged down with any repetitive catchphrases like the dreaded Catherine Tate and the now tedious Little Britain. Pete's strength is constant innovation and absurd humour. I like his one-off sketches that arrive from nowhere, like Robot-Hunter, as well as the spot-on documentary and lifestyle TV parodies.

As long as we get more Butterfield it should be good.

Slightly disappointed with the Christmas show..... - YOU'VE PAST THE TEST!

The Xmas show was genius... although on a tad late... midnight?!!

And if, you know, your history...it's enough to make your heart go whoooooahh

the laugh track (or live audience) in the Xmas special was REALLY annoying. seriously, why change it up?

I agree it wasn't as good as the other episodes. the "failed/passed the test" sketch was also very reminiscent of this Mr. Show sketch:
