I don't normally comment unless I'm taking the pee, But knowing John Shuttleworth is none other than Jilted John has absolutely overjoyed me, absolute genius thank you Graham Fellow's.
Every Sunday driving back from my fiancées for about seven months. Back to a dreary yet lucrative job at mbna Bank of America in Chester (yawn) Accompanied without fail by Dance Anthem with Dave Pearce on late lamented radio 1 when I was in target audience and when it was worth listening to! Greece 2000, For an angel, FSOL - Papua New Guinea. Remember them all. In my Mini Cooper 1275 special. It was wunderbar.
Well, as you know from the complete nightmare of the savoury/pudding incident, in the end, John wisely felt there had been divine intervention. God was looking out for our friend that night. Hence only superficial injuries.

Its a wonderful driving road and I nearly went off it aquaplaning in an Austin Metro after heavy rain at night! Probably on the same night John Shuttleworth went off! If not the same night, the same week. 1991 March 3rd. Pigeons In Flight was at No.6 and climbing in the imaginary pop parade. Boring addition. Edit: Aquaplaning the Metro on the Snake Pass was true by the way, and blinking terrifying, as it was pitch black and you couldn't see what was obviously a hell a lot of water. The Metro stayed straight as the average Brighton resident and went fortunately slowly sideways across the centre lines with what felt an eternity of sliding, till the tyres gripped tarmac again and we could steer back onto the right lane just in time - and just carried on - a little slower and looking wide eyed at the road ahead. I would have been doing 60 for sure. I was young and stupid. Funny enough today I was driving down the A21 in heavy rain and knew very well there would be plenty of standing water and plenty of chances for young fools to fly off the road. The noise and feel as you hit the water is unmistakeable. The A21 can be dodgy.
I prefer his more serious stuff, Can,t Go Back To Savoury Now is a social comment, and a political one. This is just too lightweight, although it covers a serious subject, it doesn,t stack up against his early material
Hmmm.... I did briefly get to work with Mr Fellows. He has a great act and he does take it very seriously: None the worse for that (unless you're expecting a visit from John Shuttleworth Esq. - lol).
very funny yet again ged, i can call you ged can't I? it must have taken ages to think up that retort, go to the head of the class ged. carry on like this and you wont have to shine shoes or clean toilets any more. and remember that poo is not a toy. GED
this man is a legend. our history teacher makes us listen too and sing along too "i cant go back to savory now" we love it really.
Shuttleworth is the greatest comic characterisation ever created, except for Count Arthur Strong

Fortunately my injuries were only superficial. Having said that, to me they were very real.
I'm glad he survived. It looked horrific.
Count Arthur Strong, John Shuttleworth, Ed Reardon, Old Harry. All legends.
John Shuttleworth brilliant storyteller and versatile vocalist entertainer .
Ha, ha, he is.😸😸😸
Derbyshire County Council have the gritters out as we speak...
Who do you think you are, Stirling Moss? No, you're not, as you found to your cost! Haaa, brilliant.

Genuine comic genius.
The A629 Woodhead Pass from Barnsley to Manchester is the nasty one, but that and the Snake usually succumb to the snow fairly quickly.

the biggest surprise is that he goes down well in London, you'd think this northern stuff doesn't travel well !!
Tis a winding pass. Tough when driving a tank from the tank factory.
wow, I felt like I was really there on snake pass during that number! :-)
A Comedy genius. I was trying to explain him to my American pal but he couldn't get it. He is not easy to sumarise.
I knew a dad of a friend just like him
Love the Hi-NRG loop at the end.
The man's a genuis...He cracks me up all the time...

Absolutely magic.
Loved it,thank you!
A lot of discordant chords in this one...The clockwork cow? A masterstroke one feels.
I'm an English teacher...I'll be blasting it out soon.
A terrifying tale indeed.
Can't believe I spelt his surname wrong.
He was on at the Big Chill 2 days ago. He was hilarious!
Better with water base paint rock on John
Ooooff, nice salsa rhythms

I've got a good idea for a song" Nuts and bolts". Can't buy a decent one in sheffield any more. They all come from china and just bend. oof.
Nuts and bolts, nuts and bolts,
The old ones were far finer,
Used to be made in Sheffield,
But the new ones come from China.
Yes.
I wonder how many Americans have watched this and wen't...is this guy for real ??
you be careful what you wish for, 5656steve, it's not as glamourous as it looks - like the world of haute couture, only with less thin people
Hopefully not in the rent-boy sense, i mean what would Mary say?
ooh guess you don't get it.
But Graham isn't? :p
Yes :)
