    James' Acaster's Brexit tea bag joke should be used in medicine research to prevent aging, it hasn't aged a day in the 6 years since it was made.

      Absolutely brilliant isn't it? I remember when this aired, I'd always liked Acaster's style, and this little gem endeared him to me a whole lot more.
      And then of course, he had to top it with "Part man, part machine ..." etc 😂😂

      Brexit is the best thing Britain has done in decades, was a poor idea by an otherwise brilliant leader in Margret Thatcher. The E.U is nothing but a putrid rancid cesspool of vermin.

      I second that. Ovid introduced me to this show, and my daughter used to watch it with me when she was in high school. We'd hang out and play some kind of game while watching this, and just have a good time talking. I have a lot of happy memories tied up with this show, and I appreciate Ovid showing us something we both liked and laughed with.
