It was a brilliant time for music, brilliant time for comedy, novels were cool, even TV soaps were cool (remember Broooookie!) David Baddiel has always been brilliant (I say this as a Spurs fan too!) and Rob Newman was even more beautiful in the flesh! What ever happened to indie culture!!!
Thanks,I had almost forgotten how good this was. Do you remember the scene where they ask the geography teacher "please sir are you soooo sad". It was my fav scence and i can't find it any where
@UltimaPowers I agree mate. Think that Rob Newman didn't actually want the recognition. He has become quite a radical. It's a shame, although obviously it's good to stick to the principles you believe in, I feel we have been robbed of a fantastic comic mind. Selfish, I know!
So glad I saw them live in Middlesbrough all those years ago!
why isn't this still on TV??!!

I knew they did all sorts of other sketches but my memory could only recall those History Today sketches.

I saw Steve Punt in Waterloo, i was unbelivably rude to him and he was ok with it all. What a great bloke!

Yeah. Massive thanks for this, had almost forgotten about Ray.
No i really had, it would have been a massive shame and a personal disaster.
Shame Rob Newman didn't get the recognition that Baddiel did after this, cos after Hugh Dennis I think he is the 2nd best thing in this show.
Thanks again!!!
