Yeah, he dropped a massive hint during filming that he won't be doing it for much longer (don't know if it will make it into the show though), which is a relief for me i think. As much as i love TV burp, i think it got a bit stagnant.
I feel if i went back and watched loads of the stuff i liked as a kid, i wouldn't find it as funny now.
Bill Bailey is another comedian who seems to have gone downhill a bit. As much as i like him, his past couple of tours have been going downhill. His best so far has been Bewilderness, followed by Cosmic Jam and then Part Troll, then Tinselworm etc. Tinselworm was a bit crappy to be honest.
