A survey has revealed that a fifth of Britons do not use the internet. This follows reports earlier in the week that 20% of porn addicts are compulsive liars.

Not the one I'd have picked, but I'll take it.

A subjective opinion, but didn't think it was a particularly vintage episode last night. Some of the sketches seemed a little short, and from memory there were two oneliners on both HS2 and the Loch Ness monster. As contributors we're advised to be as topical as possible but the £55000 Manchester pint story had been knocking around for a while.....
Thought the Boris and Louis Theroux impressions particularly good, though

Probably why mine was rejected:

Australian cricket fan, Peter Lalor, is out of pocket after a misplaced decimal point meant he'd paid £55,000 for a single beer in a Manchester hotel.

He the man later said, "I had no idea they charged London prices."

Just listened. Your joke from memory seems similar to the one on the show Steev. Agree with your opinion Kenny Bania. I appreciate the show is put together really quickly but I thought some sketches were too short. Wasn't so taken with a lot of the material overall. Thought one sketch way too obvious. Liked the start of the Louis Theroux sketch. Liked a few of the one liners but, for me, most seemed 'dumbed down' a bit and did not amuse me. Liked the delivery of the John Bercow joke. Some of them are not my humour which explains a lot! I almost fell asleep in part of it (no offence to the show, it's been a long day) so I may have missed it but they seem to have missed off the Scrabble one. I would have left it in. Liked a couple of GWBW but some not my cup of tea. Thought a few punch lines fell flat I am afraid, in terms of strength and/or delivery and the gag subject duplication was not great. Liked the Boris impersonation a lot...presumably Luke Kempner. Am rarely keen on sketches where Kiri has a conversation with a character. No offence to anyone who may have done a sketch like that, just don't like that style.

Bejesus, I am a miserable f*****!

Had a go at putting a reject forum thread up. Don't know if it is 'allowed' or if it has to go in BCG pro critique for the pros. Done anyway. I am saving up to be a pro.

Your joke got quite a laugh, TrashBat.

Just listened and I thought it was a very mixed bag with some weak one-liners especially. This annoyed me even more this week because all my one-liners were weak and they could have used mine!
