It's only work if someone makes you do it.
A requested House/Wilson tutorial, because GAY is IN. And also hot.
( Gee, I wish my idea was as cool and vivid as yours. What is yours, by the way? Do you have one? )

It's Angus Deayton, ex-presenter of Have I Got News For You, the gayest satirical news quiz this side of the atlantic - and beyond probably. ;) I'll stop there because otherwise I'll be squeeing all night....
Bother! Nevermind, I've got lots of ideas out this tutorial, so thanks again. :)

He was voted (I say voted, but I don't know by who...) 'TV's Mr. Sex' at one point. So you're not alone. ;) He lost his job after the tabloids published a story alledging (sp?) he had sex with prositutes and took cocaine in hotel rooms. It may or may not have been true, but the team captians had a field day tearing him apart in the show, and he was asked to leave not long after. (Obviously the team captians were angry he had cheated on them and destroyed the OT3!)

Although having a name so close to 'angst' is bound to invite the angst in, one feels...
He does seem to be acting again (which was what he started off in before he got sidetracked into presenting) and he presents stuff on other channels. But it's not a big gay news quiz and therefore obviously not good enough damnit! Although there are 12 years worth of shows with him in, which is quite good for watching repeats.
If you'd like to know more and aren't afraid of the RPS you can join us in glovelove. /pimpage. I'll stop squeeing at you now... ;)

Angus presented the show from 1990 to 2002. Ian Hislop (editor of the satical magazine 'Private Eye' and occasional guest on more serious news discussion type shows) is the captian of one team and Paul Merton (British stand-up comedian) is the captian of the other. They are joined by two guest - usually one political/news quest (lots of politicans, particually low profile ones, appear on it alot, but more noticably the leader of the Lib Dems has been on 7 or 8 times) and one celebrity or comedian person.
Ian and Paul and Angus are all very very gay. There were also long running jokes about Angus sleeping with Paul's wife, Ian sleeping with various politicans, etc, etc. Ian and Paul tore Angus apart after the rumorsappeared in the tabloids - ending with Paul revealing that he had the front page of the paper in question printed on his shirt.) Angus was asked to leave a few weeks later as it was decided him being the subject of the news interfered with his ability to comment on it. Or something.
Since then they've had a different guest presenter each week (some good, some bed, some awful) and despite rumors that this person or that person will be asked to be the new pernament host, it looks like they plan to continue with guest hosts.
The end.
Ps. They're all GAY. And Paul slashes politicans all the time. Yay!

The more I read about this, the more it looks awesome. Is there any way to download episodes, or are there transcripts up? Anything? *grovels*

The last two episodes are up on glovelove - there's quite a few fans out of the country so I or someone else upload the episode it via yousendit
uknova (.com, I think) often has torrents of older episodes up if you use bittorrent. Otherwise there's the DVDs ('The Best of' and 'The best of the guest presenters vol 1 - vol 2 out in June/July). I could upload some older episodes from my tapes at some point if you can't get hold of them any other way. The quality wouldn't be great and I don't have a huge selection of episodes.
Hope you manage to get hold of some episodes! :D:D:D:D
