Hilarious – please do more; whatever subject you like as long as Helen’s quizzical eyebrows feature. Tea rooms and morris dancing are definitely good subjects, if anyone from Visit Britain is reading….

I think they should pay you more to do this again….

When purchasing team jerseys in USA, league logo (NFL,NBA, etc) appears on jersey. When buying team jersey in UK, logo, such as Barclay’s Premier League, doesn’t; why!

They do, but they’re often optional iron-on insignia. This sounds considerate but they actually charge you £5-10 for them.
TWO YEARS LATE.

Why is it that Olly is always interviewing short people and Helen is always interviewing tall people!!!

Yesterday I (re)watched Annie Hall. So I thought you were saying “Jews running…..Jews cardigans….etc.” before you reminded me of Trainspotting. You’ve updated Woody Allen and Tony Roberts. I’m still laughing.

Who is it that Olly’s lying on in the start of the second film? The bloke in pink.

It is my good friend Chay Allen. Lovely comfortable crotch.

I’ve just read the blurb for episode 2 of Helen & Olly’s Great British Questions… It’s not Christ Church “College”, just Christ Church.
Sorry, the pendant in me had to point that out.

Pedant
Maybe it was an insufficiently pedantic autocorrect.

Brill, I want to do a cheese tour so money well spent from Visit Britain

Charming, entertaining, quirky and funny. Well done guys. I will indeed make Stilton a mark on my next flight overseas to the fine fields of Britannia.

That… was… AMAZING! You two should have your own BBC show or something, (or if your desperate, Five!) I can’t wait for “Films!”

That cheese rolling is bollocks, no broken limbs.
July 23, 2010 at 8:59 am |
Ver funny, though 😀

Helen looks nothing like Robert Webb in this.

This doesn’t seem like your material.
