[MistaVista1]

[provenelk]

[Stunaldo]

[RachelLouise22H]

This was a christmas special in 2008, thats why Peter Jones is there :-)

[Jemmarghh]

I NEED to see the 'Mickey Bubbles' clip again. It was one of the biggest laughs on the year for me, sad as that sounds.

[benjaminetchells]

i hope your right but don't beleive a word you here on wikipidia

[franzo]

Funny Funny Funnny Funny!!!!!

[WrongHeaded07]

IM SORRY CUOLD YOU REPEAT THAT?

[DanRaccoon]

I think Matt's finest moment was the peanuts song, he completely cracks up, and so does the audience and the panelists XD

[kaiu14]

i love this song

i soooo cracked up

[benjaminetchells]

haha bob cracks up when matt runs around the tree. BBC PLEASE BRING THIS BACK FOR ANOTHER SERIES, this episode proved they still have it

[Elliebabe3694]

[benjaminetchells]

really? how do you know? if this is true thats brilliant news

[Elliebabe3694]

wikipediaaaaaaa :D it was confirmed on april 3rdish i think :D

[WorfSOM]

The BBC themselves confirmed the brilliant news.

[dave41184]

New series starts next week on BBC2 , saw a trailer for it tonight!

[benjaminetchells]

thats brilliant!! where can i see this trailer?

[KrytenMark]

LOL!!! This is so HILARIOUS!!! Excellent song!

[garuness]

[benjaminetchells]

this aniversary special showed that this show still has got it, a new series should definately be made.

[otterspocket]

genius!!!!!

[BeginToWonder]

Does anyone no if the whole thing has been uploading on youtube i really wanna see it ? x

[029freddy]

Brilliant!!! Bring back shooting stars, bring back shooting stars, bring back shootings stars, bring.........................­.....

[Brighteyeslonglashes]

I love this song so much, I can't stop singing it, people think I'm crazy!

[muskaheaney]

Vic and Bob seemed a bit mild in this, letting Dizzee Rascal do what he wanted, and I didn't like Jack Dee. I hope there's a new series though.

[WorfSOM]

I would love it if that was the case, but unfortunately it was a one-off. For now anyway, we can live in hope...

[Odinopally]

Hahaha :D What a legend. I love him little movements before he starts the song lol.

[Argamen123]

i forgot how funny shooting stars was!  glad i saw the xmas special though...DO A NEW SERIES!!!!!

[jayhayes2007]

i love them all

especially vic

ERANOO!!!

OOVAVU!!

haha especially when he explains what they mean haha

[Smallasorous]

I love it.Its soooooooooo funny.

[footiefan101]

lmao

[yeahdude465]

fuckin love georges songs legend!

[AndrewPaulDuffy]

[madjen7uk]

this is sooooo funny was in stitches when i first saw it and the song keeps going round my head hahahha!

[dim432]

Jet 10000

[onicholls88]

hahaha one of the funniest songs hes done, peanuts has to be everyones favourite though

[WorfSOM]

Agreed! With Baked Potato coming in a close third in my opinion.

[onicholls88]

definately, im surprised matt lucas agreed to do it again though

[botchok5]

hmmmm.... I have a feeling Matt Lucas costs alot more nowadays to cast.

[elliecoffey]

Yeah I used to watch shooting stars when I was about 6 so maybe that's why I loved it? I think the sweaty fox should come back, as should vic's club style singing!

[maffevv]

No wonder the BBC previewed this on Youtube.... it was the only funny thing about the show.

[ShoreditchWerewolf]

in 1942, 1942 i invented the shoe, 1942.

In 1943, 1943 i invented the tree, 1943.

In 1944, 1944 i invented the floor, 1944.

In 1942, 1942 i invented the flu, which grew and grew and grew. i apologise to you, Achoo! Have A Tissue! XD

[SirKyleRaine]

jack dee isn shit

[DP231985]

This was brilliant!!! Get shooting stars back on TV!!!

[hayleigh06]

I so dont get why Johnny and Mark weren't on it for the special! Although I really thought Jack Dee was quite good, especially at the end!

But I think with the guests they had they could have torn them a new a-hole like they've done to previous contestants!!!! especially that woman on ulrikas team!!!

[stefanboro]

The show was not as funny as what I remember it being. I don't know if that's because I was an immature kid when I watched it or because it was actually funnier but watching it last night was a bore.

Also, I know Vic and Bob's jokes are scripted but there was pleanty of oppertunity to add some one liners on the spot, particularly with Peter Jones who tried to be funny, but failed miserably.

Yay comedy!

[britanese]

His songs always kill me! Best part of the show for me. New series please!

[HellgateJK]

Come on new series! :D

[370ben370]

I think the show wouldda been better with Lmarr and Vegas back onit

[andym300]

Had me in tears, full series please!

[dfcvda]

class

[vortexguyz934]

that was amazing

[msn164]

lol i wont the MP3 of this to put on my ipod

[370ben370]

They need mark Lamarr back on it.

[Siobhananders]

lol whare thay been of 10 years 1942 lol

[RogueMusa]

UFAAAAVU!!!!!

[brownaleboi]

EERANOO!

[DoctorWhoGallifrey]

lol

[RetroCarsKeighley]

Can't wait. Should bring back for a full series!!!!

[phildeer]

After Top Gear on Sunday night, there was a teaser trailer in which all Vic said was "Eranu" - and then the voiceover man said "Coming Soon..." - so hopefully this means they might just do it! Bring it on!!!

[Catherine3234]

But didn't Vic say Eranu in the christmas special?

[RetroCarsKeighley]

Cool! Loved the documentary and special. Laughed for ages.

[echoingheads]

If it's coming out @ the 30th dec them it's more of a new years special isn't it?

I mean the amount of advertising and broadcasting towards christmas is too over the top!

in this case misleading.

I mean since when was there a popular carol towards easter?

Merry christmas!

[doddz13]

One of the funniest shows ever made! I cant wait for the Xmas special

[98dan]

Does anyone know when this is on TV ?

[snakeversusgoat]

30th december. there's an hour-long shooting stars documentary before it.

this is either going to be really amazing, or really terrible.

[98dan]

thanks

[keggy64]

Oh its good to have the boys back

[superiourcowies]

Myself and my comrade both whole heartledly agree that we're more exited for shooting stars then for christmas

[Reevesy791]

So glad it's back.

[LongLiveAndros]

lol, i love how matt points to everything like we dont know xD

[92RedRevolver]

The best thing about any song from Shooting Stars is Vic, Bob and Matt's inability to keep a straight face.

Ahhh...and Matt is definitely better suited to this oppossed to shit like Little Britain.

[amezzeray2]

I never watch shooting stars due to my age, but my father is extremely excited about this and is gonna force me to watch it in the same way that I will force him to watch QI tonight...

xxx

[emoborn1994]

they both rule

[superiourcowies]

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees

[asonofleemarvin]

hope they get a series or two off the back of this christmas speical and I hope that A) theres some kind of vic and bob/ mighty boosh series crossover and B) that theres also a twinned 2009 series of shooting stars but with rich fulcher and julian barratt on teh panel!.

[dangrimmy]

I hope they stay completely seperate.

[WillPKILL]

Damn straight

[92RedRevolver]

I agree with everything before you start talking about the Mighty Boosh.

[mcuk1984]

Is anyone else finding this song annoyingly catchy?

[92RedRevolver]

Well, DUH it's a shooting stars song.

[madjen7uk]

ive been singing it all day and annoying evryone hahah x

[1tophat]

Wot - no Ulrika?? Boohoo...

[jamesmagmar126]

What do you mean, she's sat where she usually sits

[zippypop34]

uh, she is sitting at panel b :p

[kuqi320]

what? are you blind!

[Betgany]

No, she's definitely there.

[billagordon]

i had been wondering if they would come back!! dancer

[solomon1994]

so funny cant wait

[smailsnail]

Bring back Shooting Stars for good, BBC!

[NancyNarcotics]

YEEY!

[kuqi320]

we really need a new series of this!

[brummytaff]

does anyone know when it is on , I cannot see anything about it on the BBC website?

[kuqi320]

i sure its on the 30th.

[fenn23x]

Lol at 0:12 , Bobs Laugh Makes George Laugh. I Love It!

[SRM1983]

Really looking forward to this.

[fandyboy]

Holy crap this is going to be awesome.

[DrunkOnDepp]

I love it when he starts crackin up when he sings the 1943 bit haha

[bringmemybow]

we need it permanent.

[MrBoBoTom]

Shooting stars was awsome.

[peteovhull]

yes its back atlast vic and bob classic tele, is mark lamar in this ?

[peteovhull]

ah shud of read comments jack dee is ok, but the lamarr dont give a shit attitude was real funny on this show

[92RedRevolver]

Why do people act like 'Oh, Lamarr's not back?'. There had been at least a couple of series before the show ended for good where Will Self was captain, and not Lamarr.

[MrBoBoTom]

Looking forward to this.

[pixonu]

I can't wait for this! :)

[WelcomeToMyDomain]

looks awesome just hope the dove from above makes an apperance

[ari2474u]

George Dawes = Legend.

Still love the peanuts song :)

[frazersmith]

Looks like Jack Dee is the other team captain. Shame Lamarr didn't fancy it.

[Shidoshi101]

Lamarr's too far up his own arse unfortunately!!

[frazersmith]

Yeah, they should have put Simon Amstell on in his place just to rub his nose in it.

[upbeater16]

so funny

[fenn23x]

Lo0l , Have a tissue

[1coolascucumber1]

[davidjolly007]

[fenn23x]

In 1942 lol. This Rocks!. Cant Wait For This , They Should Make Another Series Of This.

[colasin]
