Wednesday night we had a wee dinner party since we have our own pad for a week or so. Marty & Sheree and Lee-Ann came around and we feasted on all things bad...
Thursday night we went to the BBC studios to watch a recording of a british comedian, Marc Woolton. I got the tickets free a few weeks back off the internet, you can join their mailing list and apply for as many shows as you want. They give away more tickets than there are seats so u aren't guaranteed a seat but there were plenty left. It was a pretty cool experience, just being there and seeing all the equipment and sets etc. Seeing the producer, camera men, waiting for technical difficulties; them re-doing a song cos it didn't sound right ...even though we hadn't noticed any thing wrong...all things show business, you know the drill. We had to watch some of the acts a few times so it got a lil boring but the guy is very talented, he does heaps of different characters and they make him up so well. It was weird seeing this old lady and then after the act he'd talk normally and it's just so weird! They also showed some pre-recorded stuff on the big screen, apparently that was to get our reaction so they know what is "funny" and what's not. And in between all that they had another comedian guy whose job it was to keep everyone entertained during the show while there were "technical difficulties". He was pretty funny but he had to work hard cos the crowd wasn't too responsive. You could leave whenever you wanted and a few did. Anyway another thing we can say we've seen! I'm ready for an Oprah or Jerry Springer live show now :)
