I saw Harry Enfield on the telly with a bad american accent telling us all to eat burgers sittign down.

Not sure how he managed to swing that job. I wish I knew there were auditions on I think my American accent is much better. I'd have wirtten a funnier ad too! wink
I think I saw that and I didn't even think he was putting an accent on....I suppose it must have been bad then
Oh, that pimping for BK commercial? I guess he's realised he's never going to break the American market as a comedian, so he might as well put on a funny voice, do a commercial and make some dosh. Still not as annoying as that ****ing gnome though.
There are alot of bloody British celebrities who save come over lately aren't there? Enfield hasn't been funny for years. Why couldn't the guys from The Fast Show come over instead?

Poor Harry...you've got to love him though in his hay days, he was a right laugh. How about the new commercial for motorola, that has got all these singers in it, Madonna, iggy pop, and even biggy small ( the dead rapper ) :shock:

A deadman advertising mobile phones?

Iggy Pop will appear in anything for money.

/witness the second crow movie
//wish I could forget it
Anyone heard about this recently......Guy Ritchie was being asked, what his wife's real name is, and he didn't know the answer shock This was at the premier of his new movie Revolver starring Andrea 3000 amonst others

They will never cut it on Jeorpardy or one of those shows about how well you know your partner

Andre 3000?

/her real name is Madonna

I think Andrea sounds better, don't like Outcast I'm afraid roll

Apparently the Guy Ritchie thing was on a Spanish (?) talk show and he got a number of things wrong..........

They did, it was called "Brilliant!". D

Didn't realy catch on with the american market though, probably becasue they didn't have a laugh track and bang a gong to tell you when to laugh. :roll:

Have been hoping it would appear on DVD so I can get it from Netflix, but no luck :sad:
