Hard to listen to this person who so obviously delights in her supposed humour (that comes across as the height of amateurish behaviour from a comic) and whose quips were frankly embarrassing. Terribly unfunny - a caricature of witless drivel. I found the same to be true of the Have I Got News For You though the 'tramps' quip made me laugh, yet the other quips were awful. They were awful because caricature is extremely limited in humour and Mars Bars for money left one uninterested and wondering where these ordinarily intelligent people somehow lose the plot when Scotland is the subject. Calman - the daughter of the Calman commission guy - should be looking for a new career path. Perhaps she could replace Ruth Davidson, they seem to have a shared view of Scotland and neither are funny.Steviehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18226832161404154663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3323167987164959411.post-5064221628440552242013-05-02T18:54:58.567+01:002013-05-02T18:54:58.567+01:00Well said Peter.
