"Never write off the Germans"
I'd love to listen to this panel game about the World Cup, but unfortunately BBC tells me that it isn't available in my region. Has anyone uploaded it?

"Clue"
The new series is nice (and thanks to Paul for the upload!) It's a little bit unfortunate for Dee and co. that BBC reruns some of the old shows at the moment, too, thereby showing how much better the Lyttleton was...

I'll disagree with you there, I think Jack's shows are better than the last couple of Humph series.

If there's anything holding the show back at this point it's 2 things:
- repeated jokes. Especially in the Uxbridge round
- keeping some of the old things in the script that were just there to give Humph something to do (Jack's proven that he doesn't need as much of that to keep things interesting... Humph worked brilliantly with Iain's scripts, Jack sounds.... very uncomfortable).

from what i have heard of jack dee he always sounds uncomfotable . that is his performing style . i have been to 2 recordings where jack dee has presented and one tour date ( by the way jeremmy hardy posted on twitter there is to be a new clue tour due in november ) considering he had huge shoes to fill he is doing very well .
i do agree though really the uxbridge english dictionary need a a few new entries .
cheers
