Ben Elton: Throat Lolly

Postby Magpiespower » Tue Mar 08, 2011 9:36 am

Here's the infamous sketch.

Some critics say it's a new low in Australian TV.

Personally, I think they're underestimating the local industry's ability to scrape the absolute bottom-of-the-barrel...

You're not the only one :evil:

I managed to watch the whole thing, thinking to myself this has to get better, it didn't, I didn't think it could get any worse, it did.

absolutely terrible.......



if this was actually ben eltons idea of humour, i feel for benny hill because ben elton criticised benny hills humour many years ago saying (paraphrasing) ''hill was just a dirty old man & lacked depth of a true comedian''........i still laugh at the benny hill show
i thought secret groups were a thing of the past, well not on websites anyway
