    I’d never realised the word ‘enrobed’s rich comic potential before. JF is a genius

    So he can write, act, perform stand-up, draw and now I discover he can animate?
    What will be his next talent that I learn he can do? Tightrope walk? Pope impressions? Yoghurteer?

      Hmm.... there are plenty of things he hasn't tried. I suppose it's possible he can't do one of those... perhapse

      He also, during lockdown, became only the third person to ever solve the fiendish 90-year-old murder mystery, "Cain's Jawbone".
      I, on the other hand, wisely rewatched "Harvey Birdman: Attorney At Law". I'll leave it to you to decide who spent their time better.

    I've got both John Finnemore's Souvenir Programme and Cabin Pressure on CD, (all of which I've transfered to my hard drive). They get played an awful lot. :)

      Agreed. It started to go off a bit towards the end though. I regularly play ‘Lucy’s Dilemma and it never palls.

    I found this sketch rather mystifying the first time I listened to it, and assumed it was making fun of a commercial for some local British snack until I looked up "shortbread millionaire".
