LmiDkC: Gone for a while.
Nowhere to be found.
Miss it really.
Ah the English sense of humour is pretty tame/bland and pales in comparison to the Irish and Scottish..

But if it's a life long true friend you want, who'll never let you down, then you won't go far wrong with an English friend (not all obviously, but in general) .

Tiger_Moth: So glad you find it amusing but they actually threatened Ireland too and they didn't find it at all funny.



Jesus wept, the drama and exaggeration is unreal...Russsia most certainly has not "actually" threatened to nuke Ireland, or England. the US/west make programmes like that all the time by the way or haven't you noticed?

If anything, it's the US that's the real threat and the very one that's most likely to use Nukes, because let's face it..they "ACTUALLY" did drop nukes on a country and as a result killed millions of innocent people without so much as batting an eyelid about it, they didn't even give Japan any warning or any chance to evacutate the civilians either.

Catch up . It was on a Russian T.V. propaganda site.

Quote" The Russian state television host who broadcast a graphic of a simulated nuclear attack destroying Ireland has rejected a request from Taoiseach Micheál Martin to apologise for the programme.

In a follow-up report broadcast on state-owned television channel Russia-1 on Sunday night, television host Dmitry Kiselyov refused to apologise for the animated graphic broadcast earlier this month showing a nuclear strike off the Irish coast erasing Ireland and Britain from the map.

On Sunday’s programme, Kiselyov, a Kremlin supporter and state propagandist, described Ireland as “collateral damage” in a potential nuclear attack by Russia on the UK in any escalation of tensions between the countries over Russia’s war on Ukraine." Unquote

As ususally everything is twisted and quoted without full text. What's new. West propaganda.

Dmitry Kiselev described the scenario of the nuclear annihilation of Great Britain

Soviet and Russian journalist, TV presenter, CEO of the Rossiya Segodnya International Information Agency Dmitry Kiselev spoke about how the fifth-generation silo-based strategic missile system with the Sarmat heavy multi-stage liquid-propellant intercontinental ballistic missile could destroy the UK.

On the air of the Vesti Nedeli program on the Russia 1 TV channel, Kiselev asked why a relatively small island state threatens huge Russia.

“Why threaten endless Russia with nuclear weapons while sitting on, in general, a small island. This island is so small that only one RS-28 Sarmat missile is enough to sink it once and for all,” he said.

According to the propagandist, everything has already been calculated, and this was done by the British themselves. He quoted a Daily Mail journalist who had previously commented on this Russian missile, which is the most powerful in the world."

“Russia’s deadly new hypersonic weapon is capable of bypassing US air defenses and destroying an area the size of Texas or England,” British journalist Will Stewart wrote earlier."



And I'd like to ask the same question. Why threaten endless Russia with nuclear weapons while sitting on, in general, a small island? Don't Boris has nothing else to do?

He is about as funny as my nanny and she's dead 14 years now.

Lee mack is the comic genius there.
David Mitchell is pompous and shouty and hysteric with his rants that go no where...yawn.

Thanks for these reminders Karl.applause I practically grew up on British humour (Benny Hill, Are you being served, Mr. Bean, etc). As a Commonwealth country, many of those were available for our tv viewing, and the Benny Hill show was a favourite thumbs up handshake
