My uncanny comedy genius one week ago here

his derivative column 3 days ago here. The bench will note the "I appeared on Newsnight to discuss the book and encountered an hilariously angry John Prescott. The forces of Hull were unleashed against me" bit.

Should I be delighted at the "coincidence", or outraged he's a plagiarizing piece of cock cheese?

I think the phrase you're looking for is: 'Great minds think alike', but your version, as a stand-alone one-liner, is much funnier than his, lost, as it is, in a sea of gob.

The phrase "lost in a sea of gob" ought surely to be the title of the next compilation of Newsbiscuit stories. Bravo, bravo.

Cheers, TPO, but it's probably already been used as the title of a biography of Spitting Image's 'eponymous hero', Roy Hattersley.
