They were the cosy, old-time equivalent of Radio 4's 'Week Ending'. <br /><br />That, if I recall, was very Radio 4 - more sharply left-wing, especially at it was in the days of Mrs Thatcher. <br /><br />'Week Ending' wasn't particularly hilarious either. I recall thinking of it as 'Weak Ending' (though I definitely got that pun from someone else). <br /><br />'Dead Ringers' is a worthy, similarly patchy descendent of 'Weak Ending'. Roy Culshaw does a very good William Hague (his party trick). His Rod Miliband wasn't bad too.Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08741318067991857821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-59878406393075888992015-10-17T22:11:29.687+01:002015-10-17T22:11:29.687+01:00And, looking back at this comment, it only gets wo...And, looking back at this comment, it only gets worse.
