Touch Me, I'm Karen Taylor
Touch Me, I'm Karen Taylor is a new comedy show on BBC Three. Very funny - and at last a sketch show that does not rely almost exclusively on catchphrases (remember Little Miss Jocelyn? 'It's going to take a looong time').
Best bit in episode 1: Cash Cow, the late-night quiz show.
Best bit in episode 2 (or so I've heard, as I've yet to watch last night's recording): Glamorama, a WAG-hosted current affairs/politics programme.

I agree. Good stuff. Although I'm a little uncomfortable about the teacher and do wonder what the BBC is thinking about there. I can't help getting all reactionary and wondering what would have happened if the genders in this sketch had been reversed.

You know what? I felt the same. And I thought the randy teacher sketch was the weakest one. And I also thought of the Little Britain sketch with the teacher and Samantha (only both were consenting adults).
Jon, you have a point. I can't imagine the level of outrage if the genders were reversed. Double standards indeed.

Up until tonight I have found this programme highly funny. I am watching an episode as we speak and I am disgusted at the sketch with the little girl sitting on her bed praying about her Dad who has died. I think this scene is totally uncalled for.

Yeah… The teacher one is not funny. But isn't Glamorama brilliant!?

Fantastic comedy sketch programme well done BBC having the balls to show something a bit on the edge, Being funny is about saying and doing things most people would never do , or looking a life in a twisted kinda way. If you dont get it or thinks its wrong easy thing is dont watch it and go read the beano if thats more your sense of humour level.
