Steve Coogan  noooo:

Sorry but I find him the least funny person on TV (Next to Jonathon Ross).

Thanks for the recommendation but I will be giving that one a miss.

Oi! cussing:

Anyhoo... did anybody watch it last night...?

Much better than the first week and that was bloody good...

The banter in the restaurant was extremely clever - rehearsed or ad-lib? Shrugs:

Well rehearsed I'd say. Watched it for a while, lost interest.

Self indulgence about covers it.

Well, I enjoyed it. I've liked Steve Coogan since the days of the Paul Calf routine and watching them both trying to out do each with Michael Caine impressions caused a smile.  ;)

Quote from: Steve Shark
The best impressions I’ve heard lately have been Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon during the really rather good ‘The Trip’. When they both did Michael Caine in a sort of ‘duel’, it really cracked me up.

 razz:

It was good but the nerd wasn't as natural as everybody else in the programme so far...  noooo:

Anyhoo...

In the opening sequence they are driving along in the Range Rover which has a filthy windscreen apart from the area cleaned by the wipers…

Cut to a close up scene of them talking, the Range Rover is obviously on a trailer and Coogan not driving while they chat…

But the windscreen is miraculously crystal clean…

Cut to the car driving along country lanes with a filthy windscreen.

I notice those things and they annoy me...  redface:
