It's comedy, but not as we know it
I took a break from the factually flawless Braveheart to watch a bit of 100 Greatest Comedy Characters...since we last did it on Channel 5 and just missed Alan Partridge at number 20. The next characters were Frank Spencer, Mr Bean and Tony and Gary from Men Behaving Badly. This would constitute my pantheon of comedy hell. The true low-light being when Barry Cryer popped up and the corresponding name was listed as Richard Curtis, a man who should not be associated around comedies. So I switched back, in disgust, to Braveheart which proved to be far more amusing.
