I loved it alot, Simon was on top form as usual. Loved the segment where he visited the Petrol Station!

"Man at no.3 would you like condoms with that"
I thought the show was funny but the girl that sat at the desk was not amusing.

A lot better than I thought it would be as well. Interesting to see that Simon was credited as one of the writers - a lot of the show had his stamp on it. Most of the sketches were excellent - the Petrol Station and the guy from the streets tripping over the crates of lager in the off-licence in particular. I agree with the above comment as well the girl sat at the desk was about as funny as having an STD.

Yeah I liked the show too and thought Mr Amstell was very funny. Again, shame about the desk girl who was almost funny a few times but didn't quite get there. I reckon once they all get a bit more comfortable with the show it could be reeeeeally good.

I thought the bit in the petrol was hilarious. The girl at the desk was very unfunny. Simon Amstell was great, very amusing. His co-presenter wasn't that bad either. It's just the desk girl, she was very cringeworthy. Overall, not bad at all.

Bits with Simon Amstell, i.e., petrol station, talking with the girls at the sealife centre, talking with the science guy = fabulous
Bits without Simon Amstell, i.e. Nelson person in baseball cap, unfunny woman at desk, dog and shark talking to us = not fabulous
Bit left mainly to the female presenter, i.e., hairy guy winning holiday, camera bowling = boring
The guy at the Jorvik centre was okay.
