New series starts at the usual time & place tonight with Alexander Armstrong taking the chair.  Roisin Conaty (whoever the feck she is - one of Mrs Brown's boys?) and James O'Brien guest.  I've never really checked this O'Brien character out - apart from his snidey remarks on LBC & Armstrong ain't too bad - though not a patch on Deaton.

Whatever happen to Deaton?  Does he still get gigs on the box?

BTW, WAKE UP SPOTTY!  No QT Fred last night?  Tsk tsk.

One of my favourite shows post my teenage years, always made an effort to watch it. It made me laugh in the early 90's.

Watched it on and off since then but the current format is all about kicking anyone who is not left, you sort of think this show has had its time but now it fits a criteria

Maybe when it stared in 1990 i didnt understand politics and it was always that way.

O'Brien, a leftie so stupid he doesn't realise that showing his huge anti Tory bias on a comedy show might affect his career as a supposdedly unbiased journalist on Newsnight. Does he still come on that? I don't watch it anymore, that total d**k being one of the reasons its not watchable.

Less of the old, i think it was really funny in the early 90's (maybe my non political opinion), never interested in politics until brexit, im still not interested in politics as the bbc decide the political news of today.

Sonko I used to like it, but lets face it all these shows now feel it's fine to be a one sided shower of left wing luvvies.
Strange new series started a week after the Labour conference .. so they don't have to sit and try and find anything they could bring themseleves to say that was negative to about Corbyn?!

A once great show, now absolute drivel. At least half of every show devoted to lefty propaganda.

Nah, can't watch this crap.  It used to be brilliant back in the 90's.

I still swear that when i watched it in the early 90's it wasn't political, i was probably naive. Today the crowd boo at anyone right of centre.

Well as I've said  there is only AFAIK one stand up comedian who outed himself as being right of centre.
He used to regularly appear on the TV, hasn't been on since.
Whether its HIGNFY, 8 out of 10, the last leg, etc etc it's just wall to wall lefties rejoicing in a common hatred of anyone not left of centre.

Ahh the leg will be on later if nobody has had their fill of totally predictable "jokes" about the tories and replaying the same clips we just saw.

I mean what was that about Boris not standing up? THat's rubbish. He stood up fairly quickly, before anyone to the other side of him had. What's the problem?
He didn't sit in the huff, it's a non story.

Right-wing chit-chatters seething that a topical news quiz covered the biggest story in the news this week: TMay's speech.

T May is to the left of Tony Blair.
Haven't watched HIGNIFY for ages, I must check and see how bad it's become.
By:

When: 07 Oct 17 12:24
Just watched it on playback.
Nearly half the programme was lame attempts at jokes about May's coughing and a letter falling off the set and the rest a miscellany of rubbish about "Rocket Man", Jeremy Bentham's mummified head and some other unfunny choite. A waste of time and won't bother again.

Did they do the old chlorine chicken gags, or have they finally gone off?
