Well the thing is, no one in the sidemen are boring, each one of the members bring something special to the team. I would just say some of them are not as much entertaining as the 3 most popular and funniest sidemen (aka the holy trio of the sidemen) which are Simon, JJ and Harry. But don't twist my words, that doesn't mean they're boring tho they're just not as interesting as the 3 top main guys.

Not true, josh clarified that it was and still is always a group decision. They take turns on making sidement sundays. They all work together, gave ideas. Yes josh handles certain parts. I guess the right sentence for it is, the sidemen sundays wont be the same without josh :) Give credit to Josh on their clothing line, i think he has the biggest contribution to that.
