Such brilliance. We've nothing like it whatsoever in the States. It is such a delight to be able to watch this pair on youtube. Thank you for uploading.
Poor John Fortune. Just died... on the last day of the old year. You gave us so many laughs with your brilliant satirical observations. Always looked so forward to your zany dialogues with John Bird on TV. RIP!

Big thanks from me as well, lightsnowout. Love their stuff (which sadly we don't get to see here in the States), so really appreciate your posting this. Oh -- and just curious... is that "lightsnowout" as in 'minor flurries at the moment'? Or as in 'currently lacking electrical illumination'? :-)
The accuracy and relevance of these two almost makes one weep...

7:43 'Smile Selection' ah, bless you John.
3 unemployed men in a pub, the coal miner, the dock worker and the labour hard liner.
Geniuses of comedy 5*
Turns out Liz Truss was the most highly qualified of all PM s
Britain will never reach the level of political satire as these guys did.

Great team, Bremner , Bird and Fortune....Sad loss to satire, the latter.
