I can't keep it from the world any longer, nothing (apart from working my way through '30 Rock' again) makes me laugh more that 'WILTY' (as we aficionados style it) at the moment.
David Mitchell is, of course, superb on everything, Rob Brydon is often brilliant (though relatively understated on this) and Lee Mack is surprisingly (based on his turgid sitcom) extremely funny and sharp.
Even when they have seeming clunkers like people from 'The Apprentice' or (what is laughably still called) 'Masterchef' as guest panelists it is a laugh riot.
It seems to be a growing success because it got shifted from a backwater slot of 10:35pm on a Tuesday to 9:30pm Friday night (making the first half decent hour of prime time comedy I can recall in ages with 'Outnumbered').
In the largely bankrupt medium of TV panel shows, it's out on its own.
