It was a pisstake on McGuigan being so respectful to his manager. Mind you all boxers were like that in the old days. Their script was " I would like to thank my manager, my promoter my trainer etc etc boring boring boring. And then along came Mohammad Ali and tore up the script lol. Yeah I remember me da saying something similar Quote Link to post Share on other sites

People, including me, an ex catholic, had never seen the piss ripped out of the church before. It was groundbreaking in a way. Kind of liberating. And very true to life. I think it was more to do with f***ing defenceless kids and throwing babies into sewage pits mate......I don’t think Father Ted has much to do with it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jonjon79 13,340 Posted January 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 Ricky Gervais grew up a few miles from where I did - I thought he was funny in the Office but, after seeing his animal rights bollocks and, the way he was having a pop at the Spanish hunter girl, he can go f**k himself - I avoid anything that he's in now. I'm not a big fan of American comedies but, Charlie Sheen if funny is 2 and a half men. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A bit like the office, set in the cotswolds following a couple of chavs around ...its pretty good.... I liked the office a lot when it came out, something really different...but he is an irritating prick now!! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
