I think Bobby would burn out pretty quickly
but in the process absolutely destroy everyone who's ever pissed him off.
So the upshot of this scenario is, only those who haven't mocked Bobby would be left standing.
I WIN

My pick for best British comedy show and character would be The Thick Of It and Malcolm Tucker
and it's impossible to pick just one of his lines, although "You were like a sweaty octopus trying to unhook a bra" is a classic.
So yeah, you're right, Tangles.

I think the difference between The Fast Show and the likes of Little Britain

When Enfield started doing it (Loadsamoney, etc.) most people missed the point of the characters and just focused on the catchphrases.
But then he actually made loads of money out of it, so I guess he was prepared to go with it.
