the curious thing I always noticed was that some of the people who
appeared on JAM also appeared on I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue, and
sometimes would have a better degree of success on the latter than on
the former, usually because of the difference in styles between the
shows.
I mean think about it this way, the ISIHAC Original Foursome: Barry
Cryer, Graeme Garden, Tim Brooke-Taylor and Willie Rushton have each
at some point or another appeared on JAM, some have achieved varying
degrees of success in their contributions to the show, and some have
gone on to appear much more often than the others, the one person I
single out obviously is Barry Cryer.
anyway, I used to listen to a lot of ISIHAC recordings and have
noticed that some people who appeared on JAM as guests appeared on
ISIHAC and seemed to be better suited to the latter rather than the
former. Amongst those individuals that come to mind are John Junkin,
Denise Coffey, Kenny Everett, Sandi Toksvig and Jeremy Hardy. I
think this is because the format of ISIHAC is much more loose and
unstructured as opposed to something like Just a Minute, where
sometimes those who appear on the show feel intimidated or find the
rules a bit too restrictive to their style of humor.
but the one thing that always struck me was that although the
original members of ISIHAC would cross over to JAM, the original
Foursome of JAM never felt inclined to guest appear on ISIHAC, I
wonder why?
