Watching David Walliams and Ben Stiller. Ben Stiller looks as if he is the size of my 7 yr old. I had no idea he was so teeny tiny.

my arse is funnier so far

MollieO · 09/03/2012 22:23

It's not very good, is it? I was genuinely shocked at how tiny BS is. I had no idea. He makes Tom Cruise look like a giant.

I said to myself that I wouldn't watch it, but here I am, watching it. It's shite so far.

Did I miss the bit where Russell Brand and Noel Fielding were meant to be funny?

CharlieMumma · 09/03/2012 22:31

I think David Walliams is also really tall so makes the difference even more obvious!

TitWillow · 09/03/2012 22:33

The fingering joke was pretty good, but mostly a bit shite. Just waiting for Eddie Izzard.

I love Noel Fielding - don't always get his comedy but would happily be dragged off stage by him

southeastastra · 09/03/2012 22:47

still struggling to laugh, muppets only saving grace so far

WakeUpRosemary · 09/03/2012 22:54

It's awful and surprisingly misogynist for a human rights fund/awareness raiser. I shouldnt be surprised though with that shit Jimmy Card being involved.

MrsChemist · 09/03/2012 23:00

It's very white male so far.

Oh look! Some ladies!

RachelHRD · 09/03/2012 23:05

There have been some cringeworthy moments and tumbleweeds - the most amusing bit has been seeing some of the stoney faced Americans who clearly don't 'get' British humour!!

Stiller is 5'8" and Walliams 6'3" (yes I'm sad I Wiki'd Blush) but Stiller looked doll like next to him!!

MollieO · 09/03/2012 23:08

I reckon there was at least a foot difference between them.

Ben Stiller is 4'11" but wears very high shoes.

It reminded me of that Spitting Image character which had another tiny man in their pocket (can't remember who).

There was a woman in tha audience when Jimmy Carr was on and from her expression, you'd have though she was trying to blow up his head with her mind.

Can't say as I blame her.

WakeUpRosemary · 09/03/2012 23:25

Meant Jimmy Carr obviously. Solution to bullying is to teach the bullied to stop being 'faggy dicks'. Nice one, Amnesty.

MrsChemist · 09/03/2012 23:28

Big mistake having him there. Who thinks 'hey, we're hosting a human rights fundraiser, let's invite a homophobic misogynist for the craic.'

MollieO, B'Jeezus, that's what I was thinking of - the tiny man in their pocket - when I thought that Hully carried round a conjoined twin in her handbag. (Other daft thread.)

Is it the two Davids? David Owen and David Steel?

LineRunner · 09/03/2012 23:31

MrsChemist, My daughter (teenager) wrote off to Jimmy Carr for an autograph but fortunately he was too much of a cunt to reply.

FrancesHouseman · 09/03/2012 23:31

Watching on +1. Mickey Flanagan's shirt is too short, and he knows it.

WakeUpRosemary · 09/03/2012 23:33

Ah sure political prisoners are just faggy dicks, fuck em. Who needs Amnesty?He also managed a (relatively mild) rape joke.

FrancesHouseman · 09/03/2012 23:33

Oh, and I'm not having it that Ben Stiller is 5' 8. Not in a million years.

WakeUpRosemary · 09/03/2012 23:39

Mickey Flanagan is also vile. Maybe it's because I turned over from Bill Withers on BBC4... a gracious, talented, dignified person... And then Jimmy Carr... It was like getting the bends.
