The very talented Jon Culshaw illustrated perfecvtly how I feel about Deal or Nor Deal with Noel Edmonds. I mean, why do people watch this crap?

This crazy segment from an Irish daytime TV show demonstrated 'Riverdance Massage.' Skip to about 2 minutes in for the good bit!

A beautifully written, if slightly gender-cliched rant, from a man who's partner has taken the lock off their toilet door. Comedy from the BBC's 'Coupling.'

Cricket movie idea from David Mitchell and Robert Webb. I think it could work. What an underdog story! It's certainly impressive that they've managed to make cricket seem vaguely exciting. They're calling it 'The Full Number of Overs that are Scheduled to be Bowled That Day' - I'd have gone for the simpler 'Cricket!' Enjoy.

Politically incorrect humour - you have been warned! Mock the Week's Hugh Dennis, Frankie Boyle, Sarah Millican, Andy Parsons, Russell Howard and David Mitchell give us their thoughts on what is least likely to be said on children's TV.

Mock the Week's Hugh Dennis interprets a silent clip of Gordon Brown metting Denise Lewis, David Beckham and Andy Murray, in the show's Newsreel segment.

With the Oscars coming up, I think some Hollywood A-listers could learn a lot from Ug. More caveman comedy from Alexander Armstrong and Ben Miller.

Ok, I'm gonna be fair here. I don't think Americans are stupid. I think many are just under informed to a frightening degree. Have you ever seen American TV? It doesn't encourage knowledge of the world outside the US. Having said all that, this clip is incredibly funny. Check out the scroll of news along the bottom of the screen.

This has to be the funniest commentary I've seen Hugh Dennis do on Mock the Week. His voice over is flawless as he speculates as to what might be going on with the Queen and Jaques Chirac at the famous long table. Dinner, or something more fun?...

Bizarre ad for the down-on-its-luck car manufacturer. I'm sure with all the recalls Toyota has done recently, many Toyota owners will be feeling this has already kind of happened to them. I hope your car is in full working order.

The Scottish comedian Danny Bhoy teels the sydney Operah House what he thinks of the Australian Parliament. Sounds spookily similar to the British one actually...

Another winner from the Newsreel segment of Mock the Week. Jan Ravens joins Hugh Dennis this time to lampoon the royals. Comedy gold.

Guest Johnny Vegas gets a bit familiar with 'Genius' host Dave Gorman, as they try out the coveryor duvet (one that goes all the way round the bed to stop any troublesome cover stealing) in front of it's incredulous inventor.
Dave Gorman's live stand up tour, entitled 'SIT DOWN, PEDAL, PEDAL, STOP AND STAND UP' is going on at the monent. He started this tour last year while cycling arund the UK, and is now going to the places he didn't manage to visit by bike. check out Dave's Website for more details. It's a fab show - I was lucky enough to see it last week.

Simon Pegg stars in this BBC comedy, set in the days when hippies didn't wash and revolution was in the air. Here, he makes the point that golf is for the establishment.

Warning - very strong language and controvercial views! This made me chuckle. Doug Stanhope on Charlie Brooker's BBC4 show Newswipe, discussing the problem of over population. It's funny 'cause it's true...

A blink-and-you'll-miss-it classic. I think the moral is pretty clear...

Popular 'Mock the Week' segment, where Hugh Dennis does the voice over to a news clip. This time it's London Mayor Boris Johnson and Conservative Party Leader David Cameron - on the buses!

If this show was a real show, I think I'd watch it. Good old Family Guy.

Clips from Charlie Brooker's BBC4 'Screenwipe' programme, where he reports back on the week's TV, no matter how awful it proves to be - brave, brave man. The song 'I Can't Watch This' by Weird Al Yankovic, is a parody of MC Hammer's eighties hit 'You Can't Touch This.' Cleverly done.

Aussie comedian Adam Hills and atheist hero Robin Ince do a gig in Edinburgh in aid of Amnesty International. Topics include - man with a potato for a brain: George Bush, and the Daily Fail, I mean: The Daily Mail.

The quiz show 'QI' (Quite Interesting) hosted by Stephen Fry, has Alan Davies flummoxed as to why the answer to the above question is not: one.

Sketch comedy from BBC3's Man Stroke Woman. Daisy Haggard, Nicholas Burns and Amanda Abbington star in this valuable lesson for anyone planning a wedding - don't say it's for a wedding!!!

Hugh Dennis from 'Mock the Week' in the round called Newsreel, where he provides the voice over for a news clip. This time it features Nicolas Sarkozy and his wife Carla as they visit the Royal Family. Just fab.

Another crazy song from the oh-so-smooth Flight of the Conchords. Bret and Jermaine take to roller skates for this one.

New Zealand is the true home of funny ads. Don't try this at home...

To all my blonde friends, and indeed all my pregnant friends, this is for you.

Stephen K Amos, one of the best comedians in Britain today, chats about the way he is received in Australia and the US. If he plays anywhere near you, I urge you to go and see his show.

The king of rants, Charlie Brooker, takes a look at the nauseating show known as 'My Super Sweet Sixteen.' If you've ever seen it I'm sure you'll be ranting along with him. If you haven't, this a pretty fair summing up. Also, I know what he means about people who use the word 'party' as a verb and the font Comic Sans. Wrong, very wrong. Here's a preview if you're not sure what to expect from Charlie - "Fortunately for whining snotface, the party goes with a bang: she enters looking every inch the cosseted flesh-waste she is, and her and her irritating scumbag friends party on into the night, dancing, shrieking, acting like pillocks, and generally making you feel like getting down on your knees and praying for a nuclear holocaust. " Refreshing, isn't it?

New Zealand comedy duo Bret and Jermaine, aka Flight of the Conchords, funk it up with a little help from American comedian Arj Barker.

Bill Maher feels good about America, just after the election of President Obama, and waxes lyrical as only he can.

Hugh Dennis from Mock the Week does his brilliant royal family voice over. Will Charles ever be King?

Eddie Izzard chats about what the motivation might be to become a bee keeper. Sound quality not brilliant, but the comedy shines through dammit. I'm covered in bees!

A period rendition of Gay Bar by Electric Six, featuring Alexander Armstrong and Ben Miller. Crazy.

Done to the tune of 'We didn't start the fire' by Billy Joel, The Richter Scales have done this truly geeky song with matching images for the computer nerd in us all. Enjoy.

What would you do if you travelled back in time and bumped into William Shakespeare? Here, Blackadder is in that very situation. Rowan Atkinson is Blackadder and an almost unrecognisable Colin Firth is the bard.

I honestly wonder how many businessmen actually feel this way. Alexander Armstrong and Ben Miller in top form.

In this clip from 'Have I Got News For You' hosted by Alexander Armstrong, Paul Merton, Ian Hislop, Ross Noble and Charlie Brooker discuss the merits (or not) of Jimmy Saville being allowed to host a new show.

What's that whirring sound? Oh, it must be Jane Austen spinning in her grave. More randy nineteenth century types from Alexander Armstrong and Ben Miller.

The best music video ever. Christopher Walken excells in this unique dance routine. A timeless classic.

Peter Kay puts together some of the UK's best loved children's TV show characters for this Children in Need charity song. The casts of The Wombles, Fireman Sam, Postman Pat and Bob the Builder are all there (who says your job is what defines you...) as well as Paddington Bear, George and Zippy from Rainbow, Thomas the Tank Engine, Thunderbirds,Pingu, Bagpuss, Noddy and of course Pudsy himself. I'm glad Chippy Minton made it in the end to join his friend Windy Miller from Trumpton. Ah, those were the days...

No, no, Charlie Brooker didn't go on X-Factor, he's merely talking about X-Factor, on his wonderful BBC4 show 'Screenwipe'. In the process he manages to sum up how I feel about it: it's crap. Check out his new book through the link below.

Stand-up comedian and "Mock the Week" host, Dara O Briain, talks about his frustration progressing in videogames on Charlie Brooker's 'Gameswipe'. I feel his frustration. Some strong language.

Lee Mack attempting yoga in the brilliant sitcom, Not Going Out. I know how he feels.

Fantastic parody of the money-grabbing Christian group Hillsong. The Chaser's War on Everything - never afraid to tell it like it is!

An assortment of, mainly American, game show contestants who have interesting thought processes. Oh, and for those of you who don't know, masticate means to chew, so I don't know what the hell that guy was thinking of doing to his dog...

Timeless comedy from Rowan Atkinson on 'Not the Nine O'clock News' from the 1980's. Here, he's a frustrated vicar who's church has been chosen for a recording of 'Songs of Praise.' Classic.

The best version of the 'Flashdance' dance ever recorded. Robert Webb performs here in aid of Comic Relief. I wish I looked that good in a leotard...

Totally insane shoe shop sketch starring Victoria Wood and Julie Walters, from 'Victoria Wood As Seen on TV'.

Happy New Year everyone! I hope this little selection of Catherine Tate's Posh People sketches goes some way to taking the edge off your hangovers. Don't get in your four wheel drives yet, you may still be drunk. Gooseberry and cinnamon yoghurt anyone?

Some Scottish comedy for Hogmanay - Chewin the Fat. Here, Karen Dunbar is brilliant as ever as the teacher trying to give her pupils a little lesson in culture.

Warning - controversial: a ventriloquist act with an edge. Funny, but some may find it offensive for all sorts of reasons. You have been told.

An oldie, but goodie. I remember the first time I saw this I was absolutely wowed by it. Unfortunately, it loses sound in the last three seconds, but you get the idea. It remains an impressive display and goes to show the lengths some people go to to get into the festive spirit!

Rich Hall on the Australian comedic music quiz show 'Spicks and Specks' singing his tribute to one of the greates boxers who has ever released a sandwich grill. Sing along!

I've got a George Foreman Grill, George Foreman Grill
If you won't cook my dinner, George Foreman will
I've got a George Foreman Grill, George Foreman Grill
If you won't cook my dinner, George Foreman will
He was the master of masters, in the sweetest science
To you he is just a name on a kitchen appliance
How can you be so stupid? How can you be so dumb?
Not to know that George Foreman was as mean as they come
He went eight rounds in Kinshasa with Mohammed Ali
He didn't float like a butterfly or sting like a bee
He just lay on that canvas all quiet and still
But he was dreaming of the plans for a cheap sandwich grill
I've got a George Foreman Grill, George Foreman Grill
If you won't cook my dinner, George Foreman will.

A Big Bang Theory 'Minisode', edited from last year's Christmas special. It culminates in one of the most touching scene's I've witnessed in a comedy show - ever. Call me a sentimental old fool if you like, but I always well up a little when I watch this. Happy Saturnalia: I hope you get a miracle this year. Feather x

Just a short one for Christmas Eve as I'm sure you'll all be frantically doing your last minute shopping. Enjoy this festive fun from the Scottish Falsetto Sock Puppet Theatre.

The Queen releases a DVD of her Christmas message - complete with out-takes.

Ade Edmonson and Rik Mayall in a typically fearless slapstick scene from 'Bottom'.

Seventies Christmas fun with Frank Spencer (Michael Crawford) and his wife Betty (Michele Dotrice).

The Scottish Falsetto Sock Puppet Theatre's wonderful song about the commercialisation of Christmas.

Russell Howard ponders how we could possibly understand what a bee might be trying to tell us.

Omid reminds us of the profunity of religion. Hmmm.

Rob Brydon, Rich Hall, Bill Bailey, Alan Davies and Stephen Fry discuss one of life's big questions - could Jesus walk on custard? The usual wit and innuendo from the QI team.

On the run up to Christmas, a bit of sanity from one of America's funniest agnostics - Bill Maher. Check out his movie about religion 'Religulous' if you possibly can.

Fantastic cover of the Queen hit, Bohemian Rhapsody, by the irrepressible Muppets. Beaker is definately my favourite, closely follwed by Animal. Mind you, Rolf and Sam the Eagle are great...oh, they're all fab.

Ok, warning: this is a weird one. I don't even know why it makes me laugh, but it does. These dogs are obviously very affectionate towards one another, but I can't believe the video goes on for 1min 51 secs! Anyway, see what you think. Oh, and remember, rescue dogs give the best kisses.

Who will the fight involve this week? Well, a couple of unlikely vegetarians of course. Typical lunacy from Harry Hill.

Cleverly written Australian political comedy, set in Canberra. It's kind of an Australian 'Yes Minister' for the noughties. Here, they're discussing funding for the ABC. Notice the Chaser (as in The Chaser's War on Everything, a biting satire show that features heavily on this site) is mentioned right at the end.

Fab ad for a DIY store (Mitre 10). Not surprisingly, this was aired in New Zealand, where the Aussie reputation for laziness is well known. All the kids in this are great - exactly how many blokes down under talk.

The very talented Andrew Hansen on Australia's 'The Chaser's War on Everything' performing another comic song. This time, the song was aired just after the death of Michael Jackson, and in typical Chaser style, manages to offend a few people - not least Ben Lee fans.




Here's the lyrics so you can sing along!

We've lost Jimmy Hendrix, we lost Elvis too
There's no more Big Bopper and Tupac shot through
And now the great Michael Jackson's been taken from me
But I don't understand lord, why don't you take Ben Lee?

Janice Joplin has gone and poor Kurt Cobain
We farewelled Slim Dusty, although that caused us less pain
But when we lose a great genious like Freddy Mercury
Why do we still have lord, that annoying Ben Lee?

When Ben Lee's on tour in old Memphis town
Could he not take a swim like Jeff Buckley and drown?
and when he's in a hotel room alone for a while
Why can't he have a wank, Michael Hutchence style?

Buddy Holly in a plane crash was a victim of chance
I wish instead of Qantas Ben Lee flew Air France
I don't need a smug tosser rubbing poitics in my face
I get enough of that just by watching the Chaser

I thought 'The Rage in Placid Lake' would end his career
I wish Claire Danes had dumped him with a knife in the ear
Now it's song after song and I've become less forgiving
We all catch his disease, but he goes on living

So lord please now spare us from our Ben Lee hell
and lord when you take him - could you take Guy Sebastian as well?

One of my favourite Eddie Izzard routines. Here, he ponders how we would tell if an animal was good or evil.

Inspired by the famous Oscar Wilde quote, Eddie Izzard chats to an American Audience about being bilingual.

Never afraid of controversy, Ross Noble ruminates that Muslims are just as mad as Christians. Fair enough. And what a catchy song. Can't help thinking the tune is borrowed from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang though...

Happy St. Andrew's Day! Here's Scotland most lovable comedian (no, not Frankie Boyle) Danny Bhoy, telling a Candaian audience at the Just For Laughs Comedy Festival how Scotland (maybe) came to have the Thistle as it's national emblem.

Lovely song about the 1980's to the tune of 'We didn't start the fire' by Billy Joel. The fashions from that era are back, so here's a look at what popular culture really was like back then. Oh the nostalgia. Enjoy.

Very personal routine from Dave Allen in 1984. Anyone who has given up anything will recognise the agony. And remember, if you smoke after making love, you're doing it too fast.

Cathering Tate's most famous character Lauren, (Am I Bovvered?) takes up cheerleading. Take the shame!

Yes, you can see how Kryten's story seems just the tiniest bit implausible... Red Dwarf's Robert Llewellyn dons his rubber face mask in the name of comedy.

Don't normally put clip as long as this, but if you have a bit of time to kill at lunchtime it's definately worth a look. Demitri Martin tells jokes while strumming away at his guitar and someone has added pictures from Google Images to add to the comic effect. Ridiculously random, but hey.

Jon Culshaw takes his comedy impression of favourite Doctor Who actor Tom Baker to a speed dating night. Funny fly-on-the-wall comedy short from BBC impressions show 'Dead Ringers'. As if single girls didn't have it tough enough...

Terror of The Ming-Mongs. A prize-winning edition of Victoria Wood's 1980s sketch series, containing her short but witty Dr. Who spoof, with Jim Broadbent (Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, Bridget Jones' Diary, Moulin Rouge) as the Doctor. His penalty for failing to beat the deadly Crayola is to have his mega plumfinity converted into negative cretathorgs. Gracious.

Comedy god Michael McIntyre makes Jonothan Ross' show funny. No mean feat. Who do you think is sexier: Michael McIntyre or Gerard Butler?

You wouldn't want to have these two on your side when planning an escape. More RAF fun from Armstrong and Miller.

A compilation of clips by ITN (Independant Television News) showing that crime definately doesn't pay.

After the huge success of 'American Idiot' Green Day have come back with a storming new album '21st Century Breakdown'. This is the 'Walking Contradiction' video from their 1995 album 'Insomniac'. It's an oldie but goodie - check out how young they all look! I put this up in celebration of their ongoing tour, and as this is a comedy website, I picked what I think is the funniest of their videos. It kind of reminds me of the Blues Brothers, leaving chaos in their wake. I particularly like Billy Joe Armstrong's ill advised beard. For details of their tour and other Green Day related matters go to the band's website at Greenday.com

Sing along below!

Do as I say not as I do because
The shit so deep you can't run away
I beg to differ on the contrary
I agree with every word that you say
Talk is cheap and lies are expensive
My wallet's fat and so is my head
Hit and run and then I'll hit you again
I'm a smartass but I'm playing dumb

Standards set and broken all the time
Control the chaos behind a gun
Call it as I see it even if
I was born deaf, blind and dumb
Losers winning big on the lottery
Rehab rejects still sniffing glue
Constant refutation with myself
I'm victim of a catch 22

I have no belief
But I believe I'm a walking contradiction
And I ain't got no right

Do as I say not as I do because
The shit so deep you can't run away
I beg to differ on the contrary
I agree with every word that you say
Talk is cheap and lies are expensive
My wallet's fat and so is my head
Hit and run and then I'll hit you again
I'm a smartass but I'm playing dumb

I have no belief
But I believe I'm a walking contradiction
And I ain't got no right

I have no belief
But I believe I'm a walking contradiction
And I ain't got no right

Monica goes down to the beach with Joey and Chandler and they return with a terrible secret about what happened there. The other friends prize it out of them though. Really brilliant over-acting for comic effect.

This is the best game of Simon Says I've ever seen. Absolutely fantastic. Can you guess who wins?

Now, it's not often I feel sorry for the police, but on this occasion...This guy's been pulled in for drunk and disorderly or something and all I can say is, he's gonna have a sore head in the morning, and not just from the booze.

A very topical song from the Scottish Falsetto Sock Puppet Theatre, filmed during one of their performances at this year's Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Helpully, as the sound quality isn't what it could be, the lyrics are displayed for you. Also, for anyone who has not been to the Edinburgh Festival, it is the biggest arts festival in the world, so visitors routinely go to two or more one-hour performances a day in the preview week. And even in Edinburgh, the rooms can get very hot indeed, so it can all feel like a breeding ground for germs...Enjoy.

A wonderful song from the comic genious of Victoria Wood. I've heard rumours that she's going to be doing an updated version of this song on her Christmas special this year. This version is from 'An Audience With Victoria Wood' from 1988. Below are the lyrics for you to sing along.






Things Would Never Have Worked

It's over, we've missed the bus
Nice idea, but not for us,
We didn't click,
Let's make it quick and say goodbye,
Don't hold my hand, and don't demand a reason why
No loving looks, no fond regards,
Tonight was always on the cards.

I like big muscles, you were thin and lanky,
I like nice manners, you were far too cranky,
You blew your nose and then looked in your hanky,
Things would never have worked.

The day I met you was a real heart-wrencher,
I thought that love would be a big adventure,
Then saw the spinach on your bottom dencher,
Things would never have worked.

I wanted champagne and oysters,
'Cause that's the way I am,
You gave me Vimto, tinned carrots and Spam.

Rappot's a thing you just can't manufacture,
You had your pin-up girl, I couldn't match her,
I didn't want to, it was Mrs. Thatcher,
Things would never have worked.

I wanted love to come and knock our blocks off,
But even Venus takes her card and clocks off,
Your idea of foreplay was to take your socks off,
Things would never have worked.

I wanted moonlight and roses and all that silly tosh,
You wanted gerbils, a whippet, a wash.

I wanted love poems but you couldn't write them,
My earlobes nibbled but you wouldn't bite them,
You'd only fart and then, attempt to light them,
Things would never have worked.

We're not compatible, let's not get blue dear,
At least we see each other's point of view dear,
I like big hunky men and so do you dear,
Things would never have worked.

Do you know? Alan Davies thinks he does, but, as ever, Stephen Fry proves him wrong.

I've had some pretty terrible jobs in my time, but this has to beat them all. Lee Mack shines in this clip from the BBC series 'Not Going Out'

Funny little sketch from this Aussie sketch show. Beware next time you go into your local coffee shop...

Hope you had a fantastic Halloween weekend. Here's some more costume fun from the Big Bang Theory team. Can you guess what Sheldon's costume is?

Some top flashing from the Big Bang Theory crew. This is why you should have costume meetings. Happy Halloween everyone!

Feather's very busy at the moment, so here's a great comedian from Australia: Carl Barron at the Montreal Comedy Festival 2006.

I'm a huge fan of Star Wars and when ever I get a chance to post on MundoFundo I have to add at least one Star Wars inspired video. I noticed feather has already posted Chad Vader - Day Shift Manager, this is the second part in the series Chad Vader #2 "The Date", I can't believe it's only had 3,130,583 views! It's another gem from Blame Society Films.

Fantastic sketch from Big Train, starring Simon Pegg. It can be devastating when your favourite pop star isn't achieving the chart success you think they deserve. If only we could tell him that Billie Piper had much bigger success with her later role in Dr. Who. Hey ho.

Stewart Lee doing an up close and personal gig in Glasgow, recounts a fascinating conversation he once had with a taxi driver.

A beautiful blues song about dumping someone by text. I knew someone who did that once. Harsh. I hate predictive text, but I love this song.

Insane sketch from Big Train. How did they think it up? I mean, the artist formally known as Prince???
