I found it quite exciting how they said we'll "get to see Angry Starmer", like he's a super-rare collectible in the Panini Starmer series.
"Anyone want to swap Starmers? I've got loads of spare Disappointed Starmers, a couple of Stern Starmers and an Angry Starmer"
"ANGRY STARMER?! NEEEEEEEEED!!!"
I picture this as Air Force One being recently fitted with an escalator, except it accidentally gets switched to 'Up' so he's bouncing down the steps for three hours, not getting anywhere, like a turd-strewn Escher.

I came home one day to find a neighbour stood in the road, looking up. I said Hi and he just pointed at his roof. We had no idea where it came from (and I'm ashamed to admit I didn't know they could fly. Yes, I know they're birds, but I thought they were like decorative plates, more for show)
The next two shots - The empty field, then the cut back to him wobbling away on his bike, are comedy gold 🙂
There's something very contractual-obligation about that Boyzone song being stuck on the end of CD1.
Just remembered that Weezer's fans kept suggesting they should cover Africa by Toto, and so, after months of campaigning, the band finally caved in and recorded a version of Rosanna by Toto #totp
I just fell down that exact rabbithole. Apparently it was a house in Newham scheduled for demolition to make way for Docklands (but with a family still living there). And it turned out the dye didn't wash off straight away as planned :)
Just remembered the Vengaboys went on to release their own Vengabeer, which was really nice. And they brilliantly named it 'Gender Fluid' #totp
"'oo remembers them Global Hypercolor t-shirts? What were that all about?" #totp
What with this and Cartoons, I'm glad I was well clear of my last school disco in 1999
The twist is that it turns into a 15-minute death-metal rock opera *puts hand to ear* I'm sorry, I'm being told the twist is that it's exactly the same as the original, but not as good #totp
Friends Forever (or for a couple of months at least) #totp
She was booked by mistake. They wanted A1 :(
YOU MADE US SIT THROUGH ENRIQUE IGLESIAS INSTEAD OF WICKY-WAH-WICKY-WAH-WICKY-WICKY-WILD WILD WEST?!?! #totp
PLEASE STOP USING THESE EFFECTS, SOME OF US ARE DRUNK AND SCARED #totp

The best bits of these #totp 'On Tour' episodes are the shots of late-90s regional nightclub decor. Fingers crossed Gail will do one of her links from the little window into the 'kitchen' where they technically sell hot food as part of their late-licence agreement
As Sage (or possibly Onion) called her, "The only TV presenter named after a motorway"
[Mark Radcliffe voice] Alright, Mrs Scaggs? Your Boz coming out to play?
Creepy orange bastard won't be suddenly running across the stage by himself now 😮💨
Crap wax museums walked so crap Winter Wonderlands could run.
I used to live on those, along with the 30p bars of Basics Milk Chocolate 😳
Yikes. I still remember the bleakest Basics moment of all - The Tesco Value 'Whisky' which, for a while, came in a clear plastic bottle 😬
Sainsbury's Stamford Street Co apple pie "great served with custard"
Oh yea I hadn't fort o dat
I used to love those almost-apologetic Sainsbury's Basics taglines.
'Basics Orange Juice: Mainly Water, Still Refreshing'
'Basics Digestives: Mostly Crumbs to Save You Chewing'
'Basics Vodka: You Won't Notice the Weird Aftertaste While You're Worrying About the Temporary Loss of Sight'
I still remember the first time I was put in charge of pushing a wheelchair. It was on a school day trip to Calais, when I was paired up with a classmate. I learnt very early on, thanks to his scream of terror, that
1) You go down kerbs BACKWARDS
2) Kerbs are much steeper in France
