I actually like Bill Bailey, esp. on Black Books. He was happy Timmay to misanthropic drunken Irish Bernard Black's CdM.

Is it just me, or are all of these people Eurotrash or third-worlders?  Sounds like their leadership skills rely mostly on finding new ways to lead public money into their Swiss Bank accounts.
