Ben Elton - Get a Grip
Is there a more disillusioned and smug man alive?
Fristly, Maybe Baby, by far and away the most cringable film i've ever had to sit through.
But more pressingly, has anyone seen GET A GRIP!?!!! How unintentionally hilarious! Its so funny how he thinks he's being subversive by satirising dated targets like 'starbucks, they're everywhere!' and 'oooh those 4x4 cars are big aren't they!'
As if this wasn't bad enough, they re-iterate these points with needless skits spoonfeeding the audience utterly irrelevent,obvious, banal social-commentary -
And then Alexa Chung just sits there awkwardly, reading lifelessly from the autocue, her teenage naivity supposedly fuelling Ben's scathing wit and volatile satire.
Its the most laughably midjudged piece of television I have ever witnessed - Wednesday night on ITV - watch it
