miss jocelyn?

She was on Saturday Kitchen a couple of weeks back; really lovely and very off the cuff funny. Don't think I could handle watching the show if the trailer's anything to go by. Apparently she's very good in stand-up rather than sketches ... makes sense.
 
It's the screeching that sets my teeth on edge. It's just horrible, every time the trailer comes on I have to switch over immediately. How does this shite get on telly? :mad:
 
I really wanted to enjoy this show as she's a local lass but blimey o'reilly, the episode i saw was one of the worst shows its been my misfortune to come across. Switched it off after 15 minutes or so, couldn't stand it anymore of it.
 
No, it's one of those shows that I scratch my head and say 'How did that make it through the production cycle? I mean, someone actually gave money to this'

But then I say that loads about films & TV.
 
It's 'No-one expects the Spanish Inquisition' and yes, sonny I'm quite aware of the origins of it
I know the line. I was paraphrasing it for the effect of the conversation we were having.
 
Best character is the Nigerian taxi driver.

When the pupil starts cursing in Yoruba (?) language- I thought I was going crease myself to death.
Wee came out.

But then I also love the threesome marriage in therapy.

The rest is meh!
 
It is the shitest programme I think I have ever seen - do you think it is someone just taking the piss out of the middle aged white bureaucracy of the BBC 'honest - it's what black people find funny - you'll be doing your bit for multiculturalism honest {snigger, snigger}'.
 
Its got bugger all to do with middle aged white BBC bureacracy!

Its a talented black actress/ writer ripping it out of other black folk. Its a culture laughing at itself.

Chances are if you dont recognize the characters, you wont find any of it funny. :)

Lots of it is meh!
 
Lenny hasnt been funny since the first season of Chef!

His Lenny.tv and Lenny at Work Show were really bad.


Anyway, I dont care what you all say! Nigerian Cab Driving Instructors are FUNNY! ;)

each to their own n that!

but once you've seen one of her characters once it's the same old shit over and over, bit like little britain (which aint that funny either IMO)
some of the stuff she does with the hidden camera is OK and fair play to her she's got Cohonas!

but it's just not that funny!
 
I agree with the repeated shit, ala Little Britain and Catherine Tate. Its yawnsome.
It seems to be a feature of British comedy atm.

The hidden camera stuff that could have been on 3 Non Blondes is ok.
But a white woman shout "IDI-YOT!" out the car window and following it up with choice (I assume!) Nigerian insults is class! :D
