  • I think the Quiz Broadcasts might be one of my favourite Mitchell and Webb sketches! It's such a perfect blend of darkness and humour. Still, for some reason, I'd love to hear the last one without the laughter track, like the Holmes sketch had at the end; it's heart-wrenching, and by that point the humour is overtaken by the poignancy of the final situation, so the uneasy laughter is a little out of place for me here.

  • The last broadcast is perhaps one of the most complex things I've ever seen on T.V. It's incredible how the host saying "Let's stand together" goes from being darkly humorous to completely heart-rending once you begin to fully appreciate the desperation that the two remaining survivors must be feeling, the implications of their last refuge from the horrors of their existence being destroyed, and the questions that are raised from the sudden, mass death of "Them".

  • They should do another series of sketches showing us what the event was.

  • Best sketches ever. Shame that you didn't start with the first one, but nevertheless, AMAZING! :D

  • "Let's stand together..." so adorably sad

  • @deaneedog Maybe you just didn't understand it

  • This is so hilariously depressing and depressingly hilarious.

  • @hyphz It could be canned laughter

  • @hyphz: I thought it be sad, because by that point the obviously used "fake" laughter in the background, to give a false sense happyness.

  • @Salierethefish I think the point is that the laugh track kind of removes the point that, "there is no-one else". There should be no-one to laugh.
