v) The Granny's ashes/chocolate milk powder joke
v) 15 minutes: 'How long does it take to write the Daily Star'? 'How long is a quarter of an hour?'
vi) Dara's rant on Olympic tickets, 'haves and have-nots', and the computer
vii) The Many Voices of Mickey Flanagan - racist (Nigerian), incomprehensible (East End), and ridiculous (Bono)
viii) Dara and Andy getting The Fratellis and The Dandy Warhols mixed up (blasphemy! sacrilege!)
ix) 'Dear Deirdre, I am from Nigeria, and I am fed up of Mickey Flanagan mocking my accent!'
x) A Sepp Blatter callback
So, another good episode! Really liking this series so far. All the guests are performing well, nobody is being left out or not having much to say. For the record, Zoe Lyons might be my favourite Mock The Week semi-regular female guest - she's good fun (a rather trivial interviewy thing here). Alun Cochrane makes me smile. Although, is it just me, or when he's sitting down, it looks like he should be quite short, but when he stands up he's really tall? I think Russell Howard is back next week, and I feel really bad saying that I didn't miss him one bit. :P
