Very British Problems

Why bother with any other forum?
Forum rules
We once roamed the vast forums of Corona Coming Attractions. Some of us had been around from The Before Times, in the Days of Excelsior, while others of us had only recently begun our trek. When our home became filled with much evil, including the villainous Cannot-Post-in-This-Browser and the dreaded Cannot-Log-In, we flounced away most huffily to this new home away from home. We follow the flag of Jubboiter and talk about movies, life, the universe, and everything, often in a most vulgar fashion. All are welcome here, so long as they do not take offense to our particular idiom.

I feel like Patrick Stewart's script idea that he presents to Ricky Gervais in that one episode of Extras is what most Benny Hill sketches boil down to.

Honestly, I just watched it for the possibility of seeing boobies.

Tim Conway's STILL funny, damn it!

I still find Conway funny. "Oddly enough" is more in reference to my thinking of the two as similar despite only finding one of them funny.

Nope, but I think Conway Twitty was on Hee Haw.

I only say that because I look for any opportunity to mention Hee Haw, as it isn't mentioned much nowadays. :D :lol:

Guess it's not really a British problem, but more like a British perk.
