7434/19954

The news that only Harry, but not Meghan or the kids, will be attending the Coronation has given me a great idea for a sitcom: The coronation is attacked by terrorists, killing everyone in attendance, so Harry and Meghan’s eldest, Archie is now UK monarch and Meghan is the King Mother (title of show). With hilarious consequences. Archie is too young to rule, so his mum is the regent. It’s King Ralph meets Designated Survivor with additional gammons and racism. I hope I can make it happen. The sitcom, I mean, obviously…. it would be awful if it happened in reality. Though still quite funny. You know, once the dust has settled.

Another blast from the past and a photo I don't remember seeing before - it's me in Richard Herring is Fat in 1994 - possibly the only image of one of the food puppets that cropped up in that show to sing a song that I think went "Even though you're fucked up, you're still our friend."

The chocolate T-shirt gave the chemical formula for chocolate and was a gift from Stewart. I wore it til it fell apart. At one Lee and Herring gig a drunk female student offered to get off with me if I gave her the shirt, but the shirt meant too much to me and I also wasn't sure how I'd get on for the rest of the night with no shirt, so I turned her down. I really liked that shirt. I am proud to say that I have never paid for sex with a shirt. In both senses.

And I did an evening stone clear about what to do if stone clearing gives you brown fingers. Listen here.

Also we lose the rights to sell Fist of Fun DVDs on Friday. If you want a copy before it's too late then you can buy both series for just £20 here.
