This country owes a debt of gratitude to John Stewart for being such a singular voice for freedom and justice when virtually all the other TV talking heads went along to get along.

Oh No. They're doing 'comedy' on Radio 3 now. It's like Flanders and Swann only worse.

Carousal? If you spell it with an E it makes more sense.

In my 24 years of railing against the corrupt market since I left the ltra corrupt Bear Sterns, John Stewart has put a national exclamimation point on the way the market trains all its employees to lie cheat and steal.

I am sure most of us have seen it already or have mentioned this ground breaking expose' that will not be forgotten for years.

John had Jim Cramer on the show. Stewart did not pull a single punch even as Jim curled into an embryonic ball of embarrased guilt.

See the full show at comedycentral.com

John did last night what George Carlin never managed to do in his lifetime by educating the American people to the "exact" nature of how the US businessman is screwing you in the ass.

Sick of it, totally sick of it. Good causes ? did you see the causes they support, not a brass penny would I give. Boring people enjoying their own company, failed tv stars and louvvies.

I was screaming abuse at my radio when Paul Whitehouse was trying to be funny at lunchtime, as a so called comedy continuity announcer.

you have to spend to make a profit, I'm sure Liverpool gets its share from these kind of events

but its your choice, to be selfless or not.

Audition organisers for the next series of 'Grumpy old farts' will let you know, but dont hold your breath ! but there again, why not.

Too much fun in the world what with Liverpool football club always singing that same old song from 'carousal !' el

bring back Stan Boardman

I bloody hate Comic Relief, or Red Nose Day as it's often called by people who have problems with words of more than one syllable. I've just been listening to Radio 4 and all the continuity announcements have been made by smug, mediocre, formerly 'alternative' comedians who obviously think they're that much cleverer than the rest of us because they can do something called 'Irony'.

By the way, why isn't there enough food to go around? Because Jo Brand and Dawn French have eaten it.

It must be awful in Africa, though. The rains fail, the crops wither, there's no water, your community and wracked by disease and just when you think things can't get any worse bloody Richard Curtis turns up with his chinos and his collarless shirt and his 'I'm married to Emma Freud' spectacles.

Still, at least it gives something for Billy Connolly to do now that he can't make people laugh anymore.

By the way, there was a show on last night about a group of 'celebrities' who raised £1m by climbing Kilimanjaro. I wonder how much it cost to send them there. Did they fly economy?

I don't need rich mediocrities telling me what to do with my money. I can make informed decisions about that - partly by using a handy little skill called reading. And I'm not buying the record, either.
