The 2008 offering
| Customer Rating: | Well this is the 2008 selection of the four best episodes from the earlier part of the year. It does suffer rather from the demise of the wittier panellists such as Coren and Smith. It's only in the final episode that the performers rally into a heated discussion about how to defend yourself from attacking sharks and giraffes where the flavour of the past shows reasserts itself. From the news that is served up, (Menzies Campbell retires, obesity, the initial financial crash, Derek Conway MP's inventive expense account, the cigarette display ban), very little happened over the selected shows, compared to the doom and gloom of the present. It might have been improved if they went back to the old pick and mix style of the earlier selections (and can we have those rereleased on CD, please!).
Still you'll know to watch out for menacing giraffes lurking in the bush! |
