his sketches are uncanny sometimes because this is exactly how my brain works. like the idea of performing some absolutely shite trick or song or dance move and acting like it's the dogs bollocks is something that has always resonated with me. that feeling of cringe from the people you're showing but also the sense of duping them making them think you're actually that much of a twat. can't really put it into words but singing a 7 word song infront of a crowd of people is the epitome of this feeling.
