I wouldn't have thought that Russell Brand would be seriously
considered by anyone with any sense. Of course, you can't tell these days.

Whose decision would it ultimately be? Jon Naismith, or some other BBC
higher-up?

Me, I'd be quite happy for the show to end. There's still potential
for some great comedy there, but Humph's absence would just be hanging
in the air the whole time.
