the Sam Cam tea is true, I always thought one of the reasons he stepped down as soon as he could and kept out of the spotlight was to repair their marriage.

Makes for quite a refreshing change for a Tory MP to be the one getting cheated on by his wife.

Brendan O'Carroll has got to have some dirt on somebody high up the ladder. There can’t be any other reason it keeps getting recommissioned!
We went to see Mrs Browns Boys the very first night it played in Glasgow. By the end of run, you couldn't get a seat - it was totally sold out. And it sold out for every tour it did afterwards.

Me and the old dear never missed it.

Honestly, I nearly fell of my seat when I read it was going to be on the BBC! I was even more astounded when it did well.

But!!! It's a pale shadow of its former self. They're still doing jokes they did 20yrs ago (and they were old then)

Watching Brendan O'Carroll on stage - doing the psychical comedy was a site to behold - in the old days!

She was definitely still at school and in uniform. He was a TV presenter and well known, not as famous as his brother Paul but he was famous.
Even if she had left school (she hadn't) she would still be under age and he was still an adult.
Sorry to repeat myself but none of that is true. Jane left school at 15 and met JR as a 16 year old journo. And JR was famous before Paul who didn't appear on TV until 1993. I'm not sure why you are repeating stuff that just isn't true?

We were recently in a local pub and they were there. The whole pub was watching them. They both have incredible presence (him obviously more so) but they are a very striking powerful couple together. He came over and spoke to our son. Whilst I am personally not a fan, he won points.
His bodyguards were well hidden

He was on Who Do You Think You Are - Brendan. Something to do with the IRA if I remember correctly, was interesting.

I remember watching Mrs Brown's Boys when it first started because my in laws used to watch it, I remember it being quite funny then and we did laugh a lot, but I've not seen it for years now.

To be fair mostly people in a lot of parts of Dublin, especially inner city Dublin have IRA connections. This mostly means the old IRA which went on to be a part of our founding defence forces and government/certain political parties, now if it was the IRA from the 70s/80s

I've noticed that Mrs Brown's Boys is popular with people who are homophobic in an old-fashioned way, despite the cross-dressing. My uncle loves it and so does my weird religious ex work colleague.

I think it's comedy for (middle class) people who are a bit bigoted and don't have much of a sense of humour.
A few years ago I was staying for the weekend with an older very middle class couple (the sort of people who looked down on me because I'm from East London and grew up in a council house). Right humourless pair. One evening they put the tiny TV on (the more MC you are the smaller your TV, this was like a computer monitor ) and laughed hysterically through a whole episode of Mrs Brown's Boys. I was utterly baffled.

I think it was before the 1970's. Probably 1920's if I had to guess. It's not easy to watch old episodes as I would have watched it again as it was interesting. Boy George's was too. I'm part Irish so Irish history interests me.

I don’t agree with him on lots of things but the always think of that heartless comment by Jack Monroe about his deceased child when I think of him.

Gross pair. Both need putting in an antiseptic bath they look so grubby. So crude & unnecessary. (Self identify as a prude).
Baddiel and Skinner are/were gross. Making a big deal about watching porn when they shared a flat and both masturbating together. And the obsession with anal sex. Baddiel told a story about someone knocking at the door and he answered it with his trousers down saying 'sorry I've just had a wank'.
They've both pivoted now to being 'intellectuals'

Oh yeah then most of us would have connections, I had family members tell me stories of resistance fighters running through tenements from the British forces dropping guns as they went and the women hiding the guns in the basins of water they were washing clothes in.
Also had family members who took part in the fighting (well dead now) and at least 1 had a full army gun salute at the funeral for his part in the resistance

Jesus they would think I'm awful, have a 50 inch in my bedroom alone, now it's a big bedroom, and it was bought for me when I was sick and bedbound, but it's bloody awesome to watch movies in bed

David Baddiel always seemed like a self satisfied smug prat to me, although Morwenna Banks has put up with him for over 25 years so he must have some redeeming hidden qualities.

I always preferred Rob Newman over Baddiel and thought he was far more talented.
<awaits inevitable 'Rob Newman is a shitbag because...' comments which will shatter my illusions >

I can't stand his politics, at all, but losing a child and Jack trying to score points from that situation makes me furious and sick to the stomach. Hateful wench.
