By now anyone who follows this will know all about Channel 4's Comedy Gala, if not here's the link,
After hoping on the oxford tube, Hitting up the underground (which I'm now pro at) we headed up to the O2 Arena, and just wow, I've only been here once before and i still find it incredible, then introducing mum to something this epic for the first time was just amazing
If you haven't been before its that big they have basically build an indoor street, with shops, restaurants, clubs etc then has loads of other stuff to do, they even had a roller disco! ha but they have an exhibition bit which i really wanted to go into for the sake of it, last time was the body worlds, this time was a music thing but wasn't open when we got there :/ so We hit up the Chinese buffet, this = my heaven, its help yourself to what ever for £14 per person, including desert, my god :D then played people spotting (basically laughing at fat people and odd couples) which was so funny until we had to head on in, got the beers, ... although maneuvering with 2 full beers in a full venue is nearly impossible and i did accidentally spill beer on the seat of the girl infront, it didn't get her but she still wasn't to happy but gave her my jumper to clean it up, apologised a lot and carried on (i only mention this as well you'll see) got the program and got comfyThe Venue itself is quite something to take in, ... its fucking staggering! it holds something redonkulous like 18-20 thousand people



Yeah you get the gist, as for the comedy? Honestly, watch it on youtube/40d or for the full un edited version, get the dvd, its well worth it. It made tears come out of my face and Mum couldn't even hold up the camera in the end, It was incredible... so here's some noel fielding and suddenly the titles will make sense :D
After the laughs and tears, we headed back out and down the indoor street but as me and mum had been playing celebrity spotting in the interval, i was about to shout at her "I win, look theres an alan carr look alike ... wait ... hang on a second ... IT IS ALAN CARR! Fuck and Catherine Tate HELLO!!! i think there pr had got them lost so they where in a hurry to get away but no one had noticed in the crowds it seemed but me, yeah i couldn't get the camera out in time so by the time i got a picture they where heading off but getting to say hello to alan carr is awesome
5 seconds down the street again, james corden and ruth jones where headed up to the top floor of the club, guessing the place the pr was trying to find but they all got shouts, carryed on then inchs from us walked past bill bailey and some others, mark watson was at the back of the group, and i plucked up the confidence to be a complete cock, interrupt and ask for a picture, he was dam cool about it all and i think loved it tbh, but as he was in a hurry it was kind of a 5 second thing so we both look pretty much like shit haha shook his hand and he went on his way but just god dam Win :)
Anyways headed back to the underground, there was so many of us it took a while but still, out of the thousands of people queueing to get onto the platform, out of every train that left the station, out of every carriage on the god dam train, i find the one with the girl and her boyfriend who i split beer on. we both saw each other and just laughed, but just fml haha
All in all though, just incredible
:)
