Quote: Him "No you're not the only one. I find it cringeworthy. Ian Hislop adds nothing except pompous guff that only he finds funny. Paul Merton has run his course too as has the show. Should've been ditched when Mock the Week started.'"


And yet Radio 4's The News Quiz (basically what spawned HIGNFY) still manages to remain topical (what else), witty and entertaining. I reckon a lot is down to the anchor. Sandy Toksvig does an excellent job keeping TNQ moving and is ably supported by Susan Calman and Jeremy Hardy with a limited number of "guests". Whereas HIGNFY seemed to go downhill once the Beeb sacked Angus Deayton and went down the "guest presenter" route

[color=#000000:ogl9gbum]"Back home we got a taxidermy man. He gonna have a heart attack when he see what I brung him."[/color:ogl9gbum]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_50733.jpg



The popularity of Twitter killed HIGNFY. By the time Friday night comes around, the week's news has already been parodied, memed, Vined, dissected, chewed up and spat out. There isn't much left for the panel to say that hasn't already been said in the Twittersphere during the week. Add to that the fact that it can either be made or broken by the ever changing host and you've got a bit of a lame duck.

Yet the same doesn't happen to TNQ

A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself. When you rescue a dog, you gain a heart for life. Handle every situation like a dog. If you can't Eat it or Chew it. Pee on it and Walk Away. "No amount of cajolery, and no attempts at ethical or social seduction, can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred for the Tory Party.

There will be a fair few people wishing his dad would have with the amount of JC related crap filling the headlines at the moment.
