Our words of wisdom from the last 500 issues.
One that Coogan would rather forget
‘The first ten minutes of this show are taken up with Steve Coogan showing his prowess at character acting. His role is that of an unfunny, nervous comic who forgets his lines. Curiously enough. this requires very little acting talent: . . . [Coogan] is seriously out of his depth in front of a live audience.‘ Phil/p Parr on Steven Coogan, issue 728, August 7990.
