@@chrishopkins209- Hi, Chris! Yep. I'm sorry to say that I'm not a big fan of Tom's yet. Some guests are strictly solo stand-up performers (very good ones, too), but they're clearly a little insecure career-wise and have an ego that makes it hard for them to share an audience. Some of the regulars have gone beyond the "Look at me, I'm almost a minor celebrity!" stage and happily share the spotlight: they'll willingly feed their fellow professionals straight lines, knowing that they'll not get the laugh this time... Tom's too anxious that the camera's on somebody else. Michael McIntyre and Sarah Millican are both brilliant on their own, too, but I find it quite uncomfortable watching them in shows where they're amongst fellow comedians. Tom's clever and witty, but I think he likes to be completely in charge of proceedings, rather like Peter Kay and Lee Evans. (Lee is a holy terror to pin down if you've ever seen him interviewed on a chat show!) Dara has a really tricky job keeping things under control. Fortunately he's a master of stand-up himself and has no ego issues; I think he's a terrific host. I think Tom will mellow with time, but at the moment I'm not sure he's quite right for Mock the Week. Just my opinion... :-)

That was the PERFECT description of how I remember birthday parties, especially the part where the cake gets shoved into your gift bag because the parents have had enough of looking after 15+ kids (and I don't blame them).

Tom Allen is a full generation younger than I am, and he described every kids’ Birthday party I ever endured. Got to think kids’ Birthday parties are still the same.

@Rachel98246

He’s 19 years older than me and he described pretty much every kid’s birthday party _I_ ever endured! 😅

Tom Allen imploding and exploding at the same time is priceless

The birthday bit reminded me of a tumblr post which said out of context, the birthday cake process is kind of cult like, where people sit in the dark until an object on fire is brought in. They all chant together and at the end the object is extinguished. Then a knife is stuck into the object.

As someone on the other side of the world, I now understand far more about Brexit from watching this season of Mock The Week five years later, than I ever did from news coverage at the time

Meh. Milton just does bits of his live act with very little relevance to the subject behind him. He *was* a comedy god a decade ago but he's in that mid-career rut most comedians go through. Allen is, like Nish Kumar, best when deviating from his "gay/brown people be like this, straight/white people be like that" schtick.

The part about kids parties has me in stitches!! OMG every word was spot on from my childhood !!!!
