I'm pleased he's rarely on TV, because it means we don't have to share him so much ... yet it bothers me that he's not yet been asked to rule the universe.
Listening to it again it just gets better each time. Perfectly written and all the more powerful because it's logical and reasonable not a hysterical rant.
This is probably my favourite JF sketch from the now show, I just wish that he did more stuff like this. He's much funnier on this than on stuff like the unbelievable truth (not that that's not hilarious), but CP and JFSP are the best! I just wish that Radio 4 would broadcast the final episode! Anyway, very funny and I can't wait for more!
I truly admire your ability to combine humour, logic and anger. Speaking of, perhaps you'd consider making an official video of the Legal Aid monologue? It's one of my favourites.
Having just heard this in 2020, it brings to mind Grayling’s (The minister, not the fish......, if there is a difference.....) contracting with a shipping ferry company that had no ferry ships. Clearly some, maybe many, of those in government are bred from frogs.
Mr Finnemore, I hope you read the comments on your posts because everyone agrees that you are brilliant. Thank you.
Neil Gaiman has recruited John to co-write the second series of Good Omens

True Satire at its very modern best!
Brilliance gilded in humour.

I like how the first thing on the investors list is Abu Dhabi. I see what you did there.
You're always brilliant!
