In a world populated by televisual crap like Strictly Come American Idol Brother Dancing, Mock the Week IS one of the best things on telly.
I think Frankie Boyle is playing up here. I'd love to see him but I know I'd be singled out by him for picking on. In which case I'd be forced to rush the stage and be led out by security, like I did at a deeply unfunny Harry Hill gig.
For out and out funny look no further than Tommy Cooper.
