And I remember you telling me you really liked that bit after the gig.

And it just kept not working.

Why do we jinx each other?

I know.

Also, it was one of those bits where I almost didn't fully understand why it was funny myself exactly.

So it was like, because there was a bit in it where it was about... So obviously widescreen means it's great because you can see what's to the left and right of everything.

That's why widescreen's good, right?

And then I went, of course, now people are wondering what's above and below everything.

So then you've got tall screen, which means you're back to square screen.

And it had a kind of logic to it.

But if I got behind the momentum of it and I understood it myself, it could be really funny.

But sometimes it just wasn't funny at all.

usually when it's flawed but but the bit the worst bit i had that with was a bit which i did um i think i think it was when i was doing um edinburgh the comedy zone oh the comedy zone comedy zone with who i did it with right the comedy zone was a showcase

It was an Avalon comedy showcase.

At Edinburgh Festival.

In Edinburgh, which I assume is still going.

And it was on at midnight or something.

It was on very late in the Cabaret Bar venue.

Almost unplayable.

It was really like you take these fresh-ass Greenhorn new comedians and stick them in front of a baying mob.
