Did anyone else see this over the weekend? Also featured Matt Lucas from Little Britain - and Sinead O'Conner sang "I Don't Know How to Love Him" at the end - very odd moment, but fun show. I think Webber was a bit tipsy though. lol
Matt let loose that Little Britain will be touring the US in 2008 - something to look forward to.

Oh she did not, for godssakes. It's hardly a masterpiece to begin with.
I thought the episode was really great. Webber has always skeeved me out but this episode humanized him in a way that now I just perceive him as a seriously odd duck eccentric. I thought he was very funny. I also thought I was going to wet my pants during portions of the Auditioning Jesii and when the woman was translating the phone call.
Norton is so great. And so is Lucas. To have the two of them together was fantastic.

I agree Namo - and the Jesii - well, had to be seen to be believed. I also loved the way they tried to put a Webber song or show title into the conversation from time to time. Cheesey - but funny.

It's the least awkward I've ever seen Webber, guessing since he and Norton know each other from the Any Dream Will Do? series. He was funny and enjoyable, especially when they took knocks on his work.
I personally didn't mind Sinead, it was fun to see a new take.
