HIGNFY this evening

[Makeitgoaway]

Is basically a group of mates getting drunk together via Skype....and there's nothing wrong with that

I thought it worked really well considering the times we're in. A reflection of how it is for all of us.

@thequeenbeyondthewall Have I Got News For You

Dp and I had wondered if they were going to change the set so that team mates were sitting 2 metres away from each other. Instead there wete screens where everyone would normally sit. They were all doing it remotely from home.

Pretty dire, with a few funny moments and Steph was great.

I'm almost intrigued to watch it now!

I really liked that they tried. It was the best they could do under the circs. I hope they keep it going. It's comforting.

I thought they warmed up. It was funny in parts.

I couldn’t watch more than the first few minutes. I hoped it would cheer me up, but I actually found it incredibly depressing.

I thought it was pretty poor.

I thought it worked well.

I thought it warmed up but what was definitely missing was audience reaction. Maybe a group of 200 or so in a virtual audience zoom style?

I enjoyed it even though it suffered a bit from the lack of a studio audience. But that was made up for by other elements like the banter around the background in their houses, and little moments like someone furniture shifting above Miles Jupp. I wonder how the hell Mrs J managed to keep five children quiet during the recording?

I thought it was great and they really came across well. Hope they do it again next week.

Thank you 😊

I liked it. It was odd but I think it worked in a weird way and looking forward to seeing it next week.

Just watched it on iplayer. It was so strange and Paul and Ian looked so old, though I haven't watched regularly in a few years so maybe they've been looking old for a while but webcams certainly aren't flattering. Made me laugh and smile though, which I am glad for.

I laughed more than usual. Yes, it was clunky, but I thought Helen Lewis was hilarious.

willowpatterns it’s on BBC iPlayer now. Just watched it..needed the laugh.

fine sturdy woman, that steph.

i might watch it with the sound off.

I liked that they were genuinely laughing at each other's jokes.

I liked it, it was funny

Steph was great.

whar sort of toaster has she got?

Good effort & id rather it was on in this format than not on at all

Loved it and I too found it comforting. I hope the keep going.

They missed the audience but any chance to spend time with Ian hislop who is my fantasy dinner party guest

I'm with oldbuttillgotit - It really didn't work - but then I can't stand Steph McGovern...
