Keir picked up a gun and started waving it around. "Is this lethal?" he asked. The foreman of the munitions factory gently took it off him.

"It is lethal," he confirmed.

"Make it more lethal," Keir demanded. "Everything round here needs to be at least 10 times more lethal."

I have co-written a comedy that is going to be on the BBC tonight with Fatiha El-Ghorri and I could not be more proud of it. Maybe you should have a watch?

Have you watched Charlie Cooper's Myth Country? One of the reasons I liked it is he refers to his little book on British Folklore.

Drinking alone is really depressing. Especially if someone else is there.

It is true, and not just for comedians: the introduction of the โ€˜likeโ€™ button marked the end of Twitterโ€™s golden age. I discovered so many great accounts when they were RTed in my direction. Tomorrow Iโ€™m just going to do that for a bunch of funny/interesting people.

There are certain moments from covid that make you realise everyone had gone mad with boredom and Jackie Weaver feels like a big one of those
