Another One Bites The Dust!

Absolutely, you guys have the best comedy television. We get to watch reruns late nights here in the states.

Well I was being ironic about Benny Hill but there has been a lot of good stuff as well, and still is.

Saw Benny in his dirty-old-man cameo in a TV re-run of the original (and best) "Italian Job" the other week.

Well it's supposed to be cool these days to reject the likes of Benny Hill, but I believe that even some modern and really cool comedians, like Stuart Lee, actually have some time for poor old (the late) Benny.

Peter, there are people here who think the US version of "The Office" was far better than the original. I don't see it myself, but I pass it on for what it's worth.

Italy for me, God willing. Or Malta - surprising how nice it is.

Italy - very nice, as long as you don't intend driving too much - they're maniacs. Although to be fair, it is difficult driving while smoking, using the mobile, employing hand gestures and trying to see through zero-visability sunnies.

Not just Italy, Naples specifically. Now the driving really is scary there.

There how about that for my new avatar.

Very nice I'm sure David Cameron would approve.

I can't be anymore fair than that.

You've reminded me of some classic English humour:

"Earth has not anything to show more fair...."



EDIT: In a different vein, to Englishmen of a certain age and inclination this one is painfully heartrending:
