Does it not defeat the point of the spoiler tags to put the text as the caption? :s

And all the world over, each nation's the same
They've simply no notion of playing the game
They argue with umpires
They cheer when they've won
And they practise beforehand which ruins the fun
The wittiest wordsmiths in the language...with the possible exception of Noel Coward.
And sod the subject line depravity.
(Am I allowed to say 'sod'?)

Yes. It was a joke.
Funniest exchange on here for a long while.
Flanders and Swann were the best. Ever. Period. (Can I say that last word on a family-friendly forum? FFS.)

I had never heard of Flanders and Swann. So I've just spent a few minutes listening to their songs on youtube
I'm sure I would have found them amusing when I was eight years old. But I'm not eight years old any more so I didn't

C4, possibly?
Television simply reflects society. You should see the speed dating nights at the pub now. Pass the mindsoap.

As above Slow Train is a fantastic piece although rail geeks will spot references to stations that never actually closed and a few that re-opened. All Gaul is also absolutely brilliant. While still working and discussing something to do with Wales one of my colleagues raps out a couple of relevant lines from The English are Best....
I didn't think I'd heard of them, but from listening to the clip posted by User13710, I realise I was probably raised on them courtesy of my dad's habit of singing odd lines from songs over and over.
It's a habit I've inherited, and much to their annoyance I've passed it to the kids. Mwahahah.

Well, it reflects certain parts of society, I’m not sure how representative they would be.
I’m sure someone somewhere thinks choosing someone to date based entirely on their physical characteristics is progressive.
Such people may well exist. However I suspect the producers of the programme fall more into the category of "show nekkid people on the TV and watch the ratings soar."
