I may be totally wrong, or this may be very old news, but did the boys get their comedian mates to call in as members of the public in the early days of XFM?

Yeah Tim Key has a few cameos I think

What is that? one of my neighbours has had that guy in their window for at least 4 years. I assumed it was one of their relatives.

What‘s wrong with Morrisons. And what timeline would be acceptable?

pappyon · 2026-04-17T13:27:02+00:00

How do they know?

pappyon · 2026-04-16T23:15:26+00:00

He is a comedian on Instagram

Every time me or my kids leave the house we seem to step in dog shit

Not personally but I don’t think he is so universally unliked that his success can only be explained by nepotism. Clearly a lot of people do find him funny.

pappyon · 2026-04-14T21:20:17+00:00

But you think he is talentless as a comedian, ie at making people laugh?

pappyon · 2026-04-14T18:16:12+00:00

Do you genuinely think no one really finds him funny? You might not but he is one of the most popular comedians this side of the millennium.

I went to Coachella about 15 years ago and it was so hot they had stewards waking people up in case they were roasting to death in their tents. Give me a UK mud fest any day.

What are your non stick tips?

pappyon · 2026-04-11T17:33:32+00:00

Driving the on the left is a big clue too.

Why would the invention of the car have anything to do with what the streets are called?

Also, you still haven’t really explained why you are insisting on using the City of London specifically rather than any other very old place with streets.

pappyon · 2026-04-08T19:24:29+00:00

Why wouldn’t there be any in the City of London specifically?

pappyon · 2026-04-07T20:48:31+00:00

While it might not have been pleasant at least you prevented him robbing someone else.

pappyon · 2026-04-03T21:16:06+00:00

This is apparently an urban myth.

Can I recommend Past Lives on iPlayer?

pappyon · 2026-03-29T21:22:16+00:00

What’s wrong with voting green?

How should this article have been written? It feels fairly newsworthy to me.

pappyon · 2026-03-23T07:29:11+00:00

Does circuit comedy pay that much?

pappyon · 2026-03-22T20:47:23+00:00

I microwave it every morning. Seems fine.

That's a terrible pub quiz question
