John Cleese and Michael Palin, i think are making an appearance, being the founding members the reason.


It's for a great cause though.

YAY. They're so good in the Parrot Sketch together.

It really is. They did a great mock appeal during the '76 show, it was hilarious.

I loved Andrew Maxwell, David Armand and Richard E Grant. I didn't like Eddie Izzard or the Mighty Boosh. What happened to the Amnesty Moment with Ian McKellen and John Hannah? I like John Hannah Molly

The stand up was great (loved Andrew Maxwell's "we're not the terrorists anymore" bit). Didn't like Sarah Silverman though, dead pan is only really funny if you've got the jokes for it, her act just made me feel a bit sad...

Real shame it was so short. I was perpared to watch it all night but it was over before 12...ah well I've heard they're bringing out the full version on DVD for christmas

I was looking forward to Dylan Moran.
I'm guessing he wasn't one of the highlights.

The Mighty Boosh sketch was awesome.

"Would you like some piiiie?"
"I do not want any pie!"
"Why you not want my piiiie?"
"No! Last time you give me pie, the blackbirds fly out and hit me in the eyes and temples! It was a trick pie!"
