I'm a bit in love with Dave Gorman Grin

Yes. I'm currently reading one of his books too and keep laughing out loud.

This series is excellent. Even the "found" poems are growing on me!

ProfYaffle · 25/09/2015 14:28

I love the found poems, they cheer me up about the 'bottom half of the internet'.

I love Dave Gorman. He tried to do straight stand up comedy without the PowerPoint for a while and it didn't really work, glad he is back to the PowerPoint presentations now.
Op have you seen his googlewhack adventure? It's probably really dated now but still so so funny!

Starlingsintheslipstream · 25/09/2015 14:31

I used to be a googlewhack in real life - alas no longer...

I love him Smile love his books and his stand up. My dad just called and was talking about his Ryanair priority boarding and my first thought was Dave Gorman Grin

I sometimes read thread on mumsnet in the style of his found poems. It's a bit addictive.

We've been recording this series but haven't got around to watching any of it, yet. Must fix that.

I love Dave Gorman - the man is a genius! It's the only show on TV that literally makes me laugh out loud!

iwouldgoouttonight · 25/09/2015 14:40

I love it too. Have you read his books? 'Are you Dave Gorman?' is good, he travels round the world to find other Dave Gormans.

I love the Found Poems, the Maria Sugarpova one was funny. Apparently this is the 4th series of Modern Life is Goodish, I don't think I've seen them all, might try to look them up.

I love the programme but have to fast forward the found poems, I was just thinking yesterday that he should drop them. To me they are no better than reading the comments myself.

There was a series on netflix or one of the catch up channels recently, I think it must have been the 2nd one. I'd really like to watch the first one.

Bluewombler2k · 25/09/2015 15:09

I love this man so much. Genius, funny and sexiest Powerpoint nerd ever! The Found Poems always make me guffaw

00100001 · 25/09/2015 16:26

I haven't read his books, but I did see him in his "Sit Down, Pedal, Pedal, Stop And Stand Up" tour said hello to him an everything

I like Dave Gorman, I used to post quite a lot on the Dave Gorman Forum about 15 years ago!

I've seen him live a few times, and in one show he had us all chanting 'What do we want? All freight! Where do we want it? On the canals!'. I've thought of it often since then, especially when stuck on the motorway behind lorries. Why can't freight be put on the canals?!
