Phaiston have long avoided the tightly competetive defence sector, but the IRDA Act 2052 has given us the freedom we need to bring out something really special.

Taskmaster is the most unintentionally homoerotic piece of TV I've seen, to the point where I'm half convinced it's deliberate and Greg Davies just pops Alex Horne's ballgag off whenever it's time to record footage

There is absolutely a sub-sect of people completely isolated from the consequences of politics, and therefore treat it like sports and make jokes about silly hair and eating food weird, who call themselves satirists and they all write for BBC Radio 4 and panel shows. Those people loving love Brexit - the probably voted against it, but its all just a kerfuffle and a farse isn't it?

The original "Whose Line is it, Anyway?" was great stuff. Partly because of the mix of British and North American comedians.

This is true. All UK "comedies" are actually serious dramas.

We should all feel very bad for laughing at them.

"Haply jizz'" is one of the funniest phrases English has to offer.

It's "Ha'penny jizz", from half penny but pronounced "hay penny".

Also, new taskmaster starts this Thursday!
