Fun at the Funeral Parlour or World of Pub?

I caught both of them for the first time last night, and they both had very funny moments.

FATFP had Brian Blessed as a guest star (you can tell this will be good), and he was going on about how come there was a sequel to Flesh Gordon, but not Flash Gordon. Doesn't sound that funny in B&W, but with Brian's OTT Shakespearian actor slant on it, it was great. The man is a star.

WOP was taking the urine out of how pubs keep changing and introducing new seemingly pointless features to keep the punters coming through the doors. Cue a 'my big screen is bigger than your big screen' battle (showing the Pub Olympics - events include 'selling the rose to the lady' and smoking). The end result was a drink off between two pubs. Two guys downing drinks - and getting nowhere. So they call sudden death - whoever downs his drink, and keeps it down, when his opponent doesn't, wins. This leads to much Exorcist style vomiting. Totally gross, but I was in fits. By the end the table was covered in fake vomit, as were the contestants. Very Mr. Creosote....

I must make a mental note to watch these two shows. Has anyone else watched them, and are they usually this funny?

World of Pub was better where it started, late at night on Radio 4.
