5 out of 5 stars Great!   December 26, 2008
G. Wallace
I got this book for my brother for christmas and him and my dad are having hours of laughs. The finish of the book is fantastic and it is great how the different pages are set out to do with the topic being talked about. It is so funny, and very imaginative!


3 out of 5 stars Good, but not great.   October 14, 2008

As a huge fan of Mock the Week, I was looking forward to seeing what this book had to offer, and to be fair it's not bad. There's a few funny lines, but it's a million miles away from the dry wit that features on the TV show.
It's obvious that the likes of Russell Howard, Dara O'brien, Hugh Dennis and the legendary Frankie Boyle were nowhere near the room where this was written.
All in all, its an OK read with a few funny bits, but it gets a bit repeatitive and it lacks the creativity and whit that you'd expect from MTW.

This book is like one big Scenes we would like to see. But it is still very funny!! Would rate to all Mock The Week fans!


4 out of 5 stars Very funny & good to delve into   October 10, 2008

Most of this book is pretty funny, but in places it starts just looking like lists based on a few ideas. There's a lot of good material, though. Recommended.


4 out of 5 stars Excellent - but requires a bit of imagination   September 4, 2008

As a fan of the panel show, I was initially disappointed when I picked up this book: it's written by none of the show's regulars (Frankie, Hugh, Andy, Russell et al), and I feared that the book wouldn't be as funny as I hoped it would be.

I needn't have worried. This book is achingly funny and a great gift. BUT! And here's the key thing: it does require a bit of imagination, I think. As the book is basically one big 'Scenes We'd Like To See' gag reel in book form, you need to picture the Mock The Week gang gathered around the press pit, saying the quotes you read in the book. When you do, it's hilarious.

Of course, by that same token, this book may go over the heads of those who've never seen Mock The Week (but then again, why ever not?!).

If you love the show and can mentally picture you favourite comedians in the 'Press Pit', you'll be right at home with this treat.
