England have played in the same way I react when my wife comes in from work and I’ve been at home all day. Do absolutely nothing for hours and then just jump into action and start frantically cooking and cleaning like a lunatic

"LUKE LITTLER" - What a legend already, and a big respect to his parents, that's a real commitment. I wonder if my two would take up darts? 🍺🍻

Cleaners can come into your homes and the golf courses are re-opening. I can see a pattern emerging here, what's the next restriction to be lifted I wonder? Skiing holidays?
#poshlockdownrelief
If this government is going to do another lockdown. I really wish they’d have the sense not to threaten us with it at the 11th hour on a Friday. A full weekend of tension until these clowns decide our fate? It’s not the x-factor boot camp, it’s peoples mental health, stop it.
Props to Putin's daughter for stepping up to take the first dose of the new unregulated covid vaccine. I still can't get my two to try my chicken korma

Best thing is, to my daughters I’m finally a cool dad! 😂
Catch the show every Saturday night for the next two weeks, 6.10pm!
Love island to ban fast fashion for the contestants to help the environment. Nice start. Want to make a real difference? Stop flying them out to an air conditioned villa in Spain and send them on a Megabus to a static caravan in Rhyl.

Pubs closing to allow schools to open? I daren’t tell my ten year old, she’s now a regular down the Red Lion. She was getting great at darts too.

First trophy since junior football in 1987. And all it took was the entire comedy industry to grind to a halt 😂😂
“Comedians Comedian 2020”
Thanks to all who voted! ❤️ a positive in a rubbish year!
Five year old was writing her birthday invites and put 16.00 instead of 4pm. Calm down mate, it’s only clip and climb, you’re not going paintballing in Helmand province 😂
I feel sorry for kids now. I know we have on demand, but there was something so magical about Saturday morning cartoons. Now it’s all cooking programmes. These kids may never have seen Roadrunner or Thundercats but at least they can knock up a risotto before they turn six.
Keir Starmer is so useless at taking advantage of the tories incompetence, if he was a Mortal Kombat character his finishing move would be to help them up and take them to a walk in centre.
#KeirStarmer
I've got to tell my kids that Xmas will be very different this year. But instead of just giving them the facts, I'm going to do it over several days, in the style of our government, leaving post it notes of doom around the house just to maximize the levels of anxiety.

First night off in ages and it’s timed with some good news. My Dad has had a little health scare recently but today we were given some positive news and we can go forward from here and look to the future! He’s picking back up his Ukulele and off for a carvery again ❤️👍
Social media just reminded me of this. Six years ago today. I’d left my full time job a week before, I was terrified, I’d never been a risk taker, but I’m so glad I took the leap and people were there to support me. Moments like this are something I’ll treasure forever. ❤️
There are many reasons why I ❤️
@jemmajobennett
, this is one. During a zoom meeting with our bank manager, I notice that she is tapping away on a calculator. I thought she’d uncovered a breakthrough with our finances, she then turned it upside down, to display the word “boobies”
My biggest tour audience to date, nearly 300 people at Rotherham civic what a night! - lovely to meet Paul and his ducting, Debbie does floors, Debbie who straps in children for a living, Ash the driver, and Owen the mechanic for a garage that he made up! - unreal atmosphere ❤️🔥
Been asked if I want to insure my tumble dryer for repairs, it’s £15.99 a month, my life insurance is £8.99 a month. I was moaning to Mrs B about it, “it’s twice the cost of insuring my life!” “yeah, but I couldn’t live without my tumble dryer”
Total honesty here. I’ve got a tour date in Glasgow
@GleeClubGlasgow
, (my only one in Scotland) and tickets aren’t shifting as well as I’d hoped. I’m loving doing the show and I have press in too! If any Glasgow folk could give this a RT I’d really appreciate it. Link in bio ❤️
I still can’t believe Rik Mayall isn’t around. I never met him, but he was such a force of nature, seems impossible he’s not here. I think you can miss people you’ve never met. For me that’s the one that’s top of the list every time I’m asked.
Thrilled to say I’m recording a stand up special for
@BBCRadio4
with

this year. “Objects of our affections” is a show about my career as a designer, the things we buy and why we want them. It’ll be recorded later this year! ❤️
Getting a car through the MOT without any work been done is like when your kid passes their exams. You’re so proud of it. I like to treat it afterwards too, a little trip through the drive thru, a couple of new Magic Tree’s and give its dashboard a little ruffle with a duster.
Really enjoyed my brief time
@edfringe
thanks to all who came to the shows. The fringe is 75 years old, wow, just think there are probably people out there who did the very first year who have almost paid it off.
People filming children having a meltdown in public and sticking it online, stop it. You know nothing about their lives, this isn’t clickbait, it’s a kid. You were allowed to make mistakes before social media existed, let them do the same.
Can’t take the risk can they? With no financial safety nets it’s a career that’s not an option for most. Then they wonder where all the working class voices are? Diversity has to start to include class too, we need other viewpoints.
New research exclusively seen by Channel 4 News shows just 1 in 12 creatives working in TV and Film in England, Wales and Northern Ireland are from working class backgrounds.
Actor Samira Ahmed says her experience of drama school made her realise "you need connections".

There is another Scott Bennett who is a comedian in America. Every so often a have a small heart attack when I get looped into a Facebook group, confirming a gig in LA that night, when I am on my way to do twenty minutes in Hull. I wonder if he has the same issue?
Thanks to all who watched my very first "stand up from the shed" we had some technical issues but you all persevered with it, thank you so much.
I'm going to do it all again next week, but with the glitches ironed out.
Thanks for all the love x
Midlands Comedy Awards results. Scott Bennett wins two awards, plus prizes for Jon Pearson, Tal Davies, Ricky Balshaw, Good Kids, Jack Kirwan and Geoff Rowe:

Yep, apart from his electoral fraud, his dealings with the FBI, and his relationship with Russia. Other than that the man is a saint.

The words Denzel Washington said to Will Smith were powerful “it’s when you’re at your highest moment that the devil will come for you” that really resonated with me. I once got an encore at Doncaster Mecca Bingo, I felt like god. On my way home, got done for speeding.

It's easy to tell the difference between a work event and a party. If you're wearing a suit and someone is taking minutes its a work event, if you're wearing your tie around your head and someone is taking ketamine, it's probably a party.

To all the parents trying to homeschool, don’t put pressure on yourself, you’re doing great. This government is made up of ministers who went to Eton, the finest education money can buy, and they’ve shown themselves to be absolute idiots.
