Comedy Connections - Shooting Stars (Part 2)

[Suedeheadlover]

Notice Robbie Williams sitting next to Mark in one clip. What COULD have led to Mark's later constant trashing of Robbie on Never Mind The Buzzcocks?

noel edmonds is a tosser and shouldn't have been allowed back on tv after that poor fella was killed

@7:06 I want a "Eranu"-shirt RIGHT NOW!

[Suedeheadlover]

The buzzer bit will eternally be one of my favorite Stars moments.

Mark and the lipstick trumpet made me laugh so hard.

Just on an outside chance - does anyone know which episode 5:04 is?

[Semprini89]

I don't know the ep but I think I remember what happens; Mark went (deadpan) 'It would be good if this were a comedy show' and then Bob quipped 'Well we wouldn't need you then' and laughs at him

i wonder why they call jim moir by his birth name in this instead of vic reeves.

[LiekaQueenofDarkness]

I'd assume because Comedy Connections deals with the people, not the characters. It would make no sense to say that Vic Reeves played Marty Hopkirk in Randall and Hopkirk, for example, because he doesn't. Jim does, in spite of Vic Reeves being on the credits, which was because most people wouldn't know who Jim Moir was. Also, it is Jim who is working behind-the-scenes, and making decisions, and is friends with Bob, rather than Vic.

Such is my reasoning. c:

[themunster]

Yeah true, just weird that he is always credited as vic reeves, in more recent stuff like brainiac as well.

[LiekaQueenofDarkness]

Because not many people know Jim Moir is his real name, even still. *shrugs*

[Hughezy]

erm, because that's what is name is
