Factor in that there are a lot of Irish in Gross Britannien and hey presto a possible market for P and R.

I thought it was the fact that the lads behind podge and rodge are the same two lads who also came up with zig and zag, and the fact that Channel4 said they had worked with the guys on the breakfast show so many years ago.

Well that would also be a factor, but merely one for the behind the scenes aspect to it.

Anyone know how the "date" went? She's removed all mention of the whole Podge and Rodge thing from her site!

Oh they had some thing with a blow up doll made up to look like her on it.

I was watching the re-run of Podge and Rodge last night and they had a bloke on eating a rather hot chilli pepper.
The lad had a kind of of Mohican harcut - y'know, shaved head but up the middle of his head was a two inch wide stretch of hair.
His name was Adam.

Surely it wasn't our Adam? No, no it surely couldn't have been?

Say it isn't so Dahamsta?

Meant to post this last night.

On a slight remove, when and why did you lose the "sir" prefix?

PP

(PS = Podge and Rodge - so unfunny it hurts. I was using some of those lines years ago. And then only the funny ones.

I only reactivated the "sir" PP 'cos Hamish was already taken by someone else (possibly a Scottish chap) for an internet name thingy.
I dropped it a few days ago 'cos Hamish is my nickname and I don't need the "sir" bit anymore.

Sweet Buddha - that Aine blade is like a fat Irish version of one half of the Cheeky Twits, sorry - Twins.

How feckin' old is she ? She shouldn't be allowed anywhere near the mini-skirt section of a clothes shop.

As for Podge and Rodge, I've been disappionted with the whole show myself, and stopped watching it a good few weeks back. That bird who hosts it is rubbish - so feckin wooden. They were so much better on their own doing 'A Scare...'

What I meant was if you come to the Showgrounds, you'll see her in person with her miniskirt an all!

btw, don't judge all of Sligo by Aine's standards

I reckon she was the worst part of it all.
She added little or nothing to the show!

They really toned things down a bit ofr some of the
Z-list wannabies they had on the show.

"Scare at bedtime" was a lot better
