Had me in stiches all the way through

That man/woman on Ulrikas team was a bit dull though.

Worst choice of guest EVER. She's the woman who provides gardening advice on some talk show, think maybe the One Show. The least TV-friendly person ever born, a voice that makes you want to burst your own ear-drums, and a face that you genuinely wish had a bag over it. She has all the charisma of a musty sock. Why they let her on TV I will never know.

The bit near the start where they said "are you a plant or a vegetable man" or something to her was epic though

This thread just reminded me, I'm about to look online but I thought I'd ask here aswell, what happened to Mark Lamar? (I mean in general, not just on shooting stars)

Spunj99 · 31 Dec 2008 at 10:36

He's a radio DJ. Radio 2 mostly, the last time I checked.

I wiki'd him last night after thinking the exact same thing and it appears he's doing mostly Radio now, covering for JR and doing his own shows playing reggae/blues etc. Waste of a comedy talent if you ask me.

It was rubbish. Absolutely awful. Worse than originals.

It wasnt great, Vic and Bob have very few bright moments, that wast one of them

speedyj · 2 Jan 2009 at 00:16

It was shockingly bad, spoiled the memory for me.

theo · 2 Jan 2009 at 02:04

Was horrible to watch, i lasted about four minuites before i changed iplayer over to the far superior have i got news for you christmas special. I actualy beleive what Jack Dee said for his first line in the show now. Even the guests looked like they didn't want to be there.

Skull · 2 Jan 2009 at 02:25

Yes the guest choice was odd. Dizzie wasn't great, Jack Dee was okay, Ulrika had to be there but the gardening woman?

Tobes · 2 Jan 2009 at 03:14

THAT WAS A WOMAN!
