Charlie discusses the notion of people complaining about television. He reviews Britannia High, Paul Ross's Big Black Book of Horror. Liza Tarbuck talks about Tales of the Riverbank.
"The seaside doesn't have a lot going for in late october" - comedy gold can't stop laughing at the Paul Ross part. Remember watching this when it was first on :)
"I was sitting on the verge of the A426..." Ross has the uncanny ability of taking the commonplace and showing us the dark supernatural abyss lurking beneath.
Damn I just swallowed a gob-full of juice when the Paul Ross segment waddled onto my screen. My lungs hurt now.... "I'm going back to Wales" said no one as a solution to anything...ever.
I love that Liza Tarbuck is talking about a rat with a boat living in a riverbank and the first book she thinks of to compare it to is The Hobbit rather than The Wind In The Willows.
can't...stop.. watching episodes...

Blowing up was the best thing that Rupert Penry-Jones ever did
LOL! I love the Screen & Newswipes ending credits! Totally taking the piss and reinventing end credits at the same time! :D
Had to look up who tf Paul Ross is/was I recommend reading his Wikipedia it's most definitely written by him!

Aww, Tales of the Riverbank :')
Paul Ross's big black book of horror is maroon.
With the Paul Ross bit - wtf? Who decides "you know who we need to read these horror stories? Paul. Fucking. Ross."
@Misishaxi I wonder if there's a list of music featured in screenwipe.. there are some great tracks hidden way in here.
Those hamsters are scandalous!
Wish Paxman would end Newsnight like this
Lmao half the fake money he hands out is backwards
Is it me or is the book Paul Ross reading from actually red. Either that or is reflecting his clothes?
Fortuately for me, I've got Offcom on speed dial
Is that hamster using a jigsaw!?
you mean on britainia high?
@JejunumJake Not just any man... Paul Ross.
well reshooting the scene would cost real money
Make-up, Wardrobe, Lighting, Audio, Set Design and Props were all paid blank pieces of paper...
@kierans716 Wow, he must be feeling the credit crunch. Can't even afford fake money.
@kierans716 That's called being and intern.
I wonder if anyone did actually complain to ofcom for this? Just to be a troll XD
1991
payed with paper because reshooting would have cost real money
Also the stories are really atrociously written.
