Welcome to this page where I done put things.
I am a master of the English language.
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor

Whilst it was on, I cherished We Need Answers like a platinum watch or a baby with a fabulous moustache.
With more hosts (three) than contestants (two), it shouldn’t really work as a quiz, but the genuinely great premise, ridiculous questions/challenges and outright surreal presentational style just tie it together into a hugely silly comic gem.
Alex Horne provides his trademark sound and graphics, the ever-affable Tim Key is the question-master and Mark Watson oversees proceedings, offering witticisms from the sidelines.
It’s all on YouTube, so go find it (and love it as much as me).
We played this in our car on the way to Scotland.
It gifted me with the opportunity to say something I’ve wanted to say to my dad for a long time (namely “‘Pele’ has two Es in it you dick!”)
I have been watching all of these. I am yet to actually play it. This must be changed.
Tim Key
No more people who have surnames that are also a noun.
I love this game but haven’t played it with anyone properly yet. This will pass the time nicely on the way to Edinburgh this year methinks.
This is such a great photo on so many levels.
Mel: He called you ‘honey’
Pheobe: What’s wrong with that?
Mel: Well I wouldn’t let a man say ‘honey’ to me
Duncan: What if he was offering you honey?
Quick, go to the BBC iPlayer and listen to Party, Tom Basden’s Radio 4 sitcom about some students who attempt to found their own political party. It stars Basden, Tim Key and Katy Wix, amongst others.
Sample dialogue -
Duncan: My uncle’s medically stupid.
Mel: I’ve never heard of the phrase ‘medically stupid’.
Duncan: He gets a parking space.
Simon: He can drive then?
Duncan: He’s a driving instructor.
Prayer IV by Tim Key
Our Father. Sorry about the mix-up last night. Just to reiterate - I called her those things because I genuinely thought she’d been messing about with Andy. Anyhow, all the usual really - it’s world peace, a more athletic body, keep Australians away from me etc. In addition - and this is genuinely only if you get a minute - can I please have a car? (Bit cheeky!) Still waiting for those receipts etc and also - Griff - don’t mean to snitch but Griff Waller’s been sniping and saying you don’t exist again so if you could do something quite obvious in his house on Friday during the poker that’d be sweet.
The power and the glory etc.
Amen.
Tim Key: I thought that Russell Tovey? From Being Human.
Angus Deayton: That’s Russell there.
Tim: I think he might be lying because he said his one and rubbed his hands. He did a lot of rubbing, which is what I do when I lie.
Angus: Right. So this is just going on body language.
Tim: I wasn’t listening. They’re quite a long way away.
I thought Tim Key and Alex Horne were great on this, but nobody in the studio was laughing at them!
Enthusiastic fruit fan with tattoo.
‘The Caravan’ is a recurring sketch in BBC Four comedy Cowards and is, for my money, absolutely hilarious.
It is never explained how these four men have all come to live in this caravan, which of course makes it all the more amusing.
