Hello, Good Evening and Bollocks (Pilot)
from Don't Lets Chart - Comedy. History. Stupidity. Hosted by Ben and Phil
Ben Baker hosts a retrospective look back at one of his biggest loves and influences: Viz, the adult comic founded by teenage cartoonist Chris Donald which has made people laugh, guffaw, chuckle, snort and wheeze with its mixture of comic strips, newspaper spoofs, rude words, bottoms, bollocks and general buggering about since issue one, sold as The Bumper Monster Christmas Special, first appeared at a gig in the Gosforth Hotel pub on the 10th December 1979. Musician and podcaster Paul Abbott joins him to discuss that first issue and where it sits in the UK's comic history, reflecting as it has over four decades of fads, trends and Macc Lads revival tours. Although mostly they're just going to laugh a lot at rude words. Enjoy. WARNING: Contains very bad language....though you'd be sad if it didn't.
