Original, Creative, High Quality Comedy! October 22, 2008
I'm a regular listener to BBC Radio 4. One Thursday night in 2006 they announced a new phone-in chat show presented by Gary Bellamy (Rhys Thomas). Initially I thought it was a regular phone-in and the first night's callers were a little eccentric. After about 15 minutes I copped that it's all a total spoof. And what an hilarious spoof it is too! It seems like a parody of their own sister station Radio 5-live, which concentrates on live sport but broadcasts phone-ins during the hours when no sport is being played (eg. late night).
One caller speaks with a strong Indian accent and, regardless of the topic, always asks the same question; "What is point?" - pronouncing 'W' like 'V' and omitting the definite article (as Indians are wont to do). But my favourite is the guy (played by Harry Enfield) who keeps getting interrupted by his dog barking and roars at the animal "SHUT IT!!!" in a strong Cockney accent. You'll hear a wide variety of opinions expressed on a myriad of different topics. In this second series they discuss toothpaste, war, estate agents, immigration, cosmetic surgery, Islam, ghosts and whether chocolate is taken too seriously!
In each new decade, alternative comedy (be it visual or audio) needs to break some new ground. The 70s belonged to Monty Python. The 80s gave us the likes of Blackadder/Fry & Laurie. In the 90s we had the Sci-Fi comedy Red Dwarf. In the naughties, "Down the Line" represents the cutting-edge of modern, inventive, 21st century comedy. Each season is recoded on a 3-CD set; good value at under 10. I've bought all three seasons and I hope they record many more. I can picture myself still enjoying this stuff 20 years hence!
