Utterly bewildering to us lot. Bizarre and unfunny story to include in our fave programme.

The woman has shown her true colours and the BBC need to take a long, hard look at themselves if they think there was anything remotely funny about Sharon Osborne’s story. I was 100% convinced it was going to be a lie. What a nasty world we live in!

Oh I was sure it would be true as soon as she said she threw Ozzie in a fountain! I cannot imagine she is a particularly kind hearted employer at the best of times. I noticed everyone was totally bewildered as to why anyone would be expected to have a sense of humour in the middle of a house fire!
Apart from that story, I did love the Stephen Merchant one about being used as a living landmark.

She has always seemed to me to be as mad as a box of frogs. She happily relates many strange goings on as if it's normal.
Why on earth was she on several programmes recently? We saw her in WILTY, Michael MacIntyre, and D Edna Everage to name but three. Does she really need the money???

It's the only time, I think, that a guest hasn't told a funny story. In fact I thought she told it and then answered the questions about it in a thoroughly nasty, spiteful way. Stephen Marchant went a long way to making up for her though: he was very funny.
What has happened to WILTY? I thought a new series started just before the election campaign began. It disappeared when we were having to endure debates and interviews with politicians but it doesn't seem to have come back. I thought it might after Christmas but it isn't in the listings for the coming week. Have I missed something?

Does anyone agree with me that WILTY hasn't been as funny since it came back after the hiatus caused by the election and Christmas? The guests haven't been of the usual comic quality and I get the feeling that David and Lee aren't able to spark off them in the same way. Last night's episode also seemed to suffer from some pretty hard editing too in the way the questioning of the final two stories was apparently cut short. What's happened to it....or am I losing my sense of humour?

I find James Acaster to be very funny and I think Lee was on top form. Haven't got a clue who the rest of them are, to be honest ( I know Danni Dyer is Danny Dyer's daughter, but what she herself does, I have no idea).

I think that Danni Dyer is an actress or something: she tried to get publicity for herself by being on the awful Love Island thing. She is as dreadful as her father.
James Acaster was hilarious. He is a very good liar, too, which makes it hard to guess when he's telling a tale, whether it's real. (I'll never forget the story one time, about the cabbages!)
A good episode, and lots of laughs from the participants as well as us the audience.

I love James Acaster and his throw away, deadpan style of speaking but I didn't think even he was as funny as usual. Must have been my mood then!

Yes, last night's edition was great: I love any of them with Bob in them, he breaks me up, and in this he didn't disappoint.
Hilarious Paul McCartney impressions!!!

Just to say, we don’t see Harry Shearer enough on TV. 😀😀
