1. That is HYSTERICAL!!

I'd watch that show if it was on in the states...Daily Show, Colber, then the Brits. Classic. I love the line about Keira's toilet rant, and people complaining that all the twittering from Bush was drowning out what she was saying.

:rofl:

3. Tragically

I don't think they've got an equivalent program in the USA. Thanks for posting a clip from one of my favorite programs - I watch the re-runs from donkeys years ago on UK Gold too.

6. All of those progams

will have originally been shown on BBC2. It's been running since 1990 - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Have_I_Got_News_For_You_episodes

On our cable channels there are often repeats from the past series - usually UK Gold. The satirical humour is timeless. Here's some chit chat from 1995 http://www.mcspotlight.org/media/television/haveigotnews.html

The guy to the far left is Ian Hislop - editor of Private Eye. For Private Eye, a UK satirical magazine see here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_Eye That's been running since the mid '60s When you've got the time go here and look thorugh all the back covers http://www.ugandandiscussions.co.uk/ Here's the online edition http://www.private-eye.co.uk/

Enjoy yourself !
