About 15 years ago
I went to one, but had some massively ill-advised lines before the meal, couldn't eat or maintain eye contact, made up a lie about DJing somewhere and chipped.
It was in a jolly nice restaurant in Fulham as well, the next day I was v gutted. And hungry.

Mine was in some posh hotel
I was on a table with two governors and the Ranga who did the photocopying. The Ranga spent the whole night pretending he was a teacher and discussing how rewarding teaching was with the governors. I didn't blow his cover but I found it even more depressing when I realised that he was more passionate about teaching than any of the real teachers would ever have been and the governors probably left thinking that the schools teaching staff were excellent.

Work christmas parties are HELL.
It seems I always get collared by one person who moans that you're not paying them enough and wants to know why someone else got the promotion they felt they deserved themselves.
Then there's the contrived & forced 'joviality' among a bunch of people who dislike each other for the rest of the year, those who moan they've not allowed to bring their partner (even when the company is picking up the tab) and the sight of the sad mid 50's salesman with a comb over who spends the whole evening drinking bottled ale and tries to fuck any reasonably attractive woman under 40.

I think he'd enjoy it,
based roughly on the war of the roses so he might pretend it's historical.

Google describes it as Medieval Fantasy
For that reason, plus the fact that seems quite popular with the more nerdy members of this board, I'm out.

generally
the nerdier the nerd, the more of a cunt they are. i think it might have something to do with too much time spent pretending to be an invincible hero and getting all the chicks, so that they think they are capable of this in real life.

I don't have a lot of spare time, Chompy
I'll wait until someone has compiled them into a more easily digestible form on the internet and then I won't have to sit through the whole programme.
