Re: Fawlty Towers BBC 1 8.30

Cleese cited Milligan as THE comedic influence, so why dont they repeat his "curry and chips " shows. I don't think it would be far from the truth to say 'The Goon Show', of which Milligan was a key component, was the show that spawned the zany type comedy such a the Carry On movies and later, Pyth...

Well! whether he wins or not he's performed admirably over the 4 days, and he'd still be a guy you'd want in your corner during a Ryder Cup. Absolutely agree with you.

Re: Golf tonight

This is where his experience should count in his favour, he's used to seeing tournaments out on the back 9, so this shouldn't phase him at all. A birdie or two wouldn't go amiss for him right now though, it's getting tight up there. Sure, he's well experienced at closing, however he's playing with ...
