      @@wanderer1955 IF I didn't find it humourous, I would happily admit it, but I laughed a lot at this, especially when it was first on TV.
      However, humour is somewhat subjective, so many people will differ on what they find hilarious.
      I would be interested to know what you do find funny?

To answer your question, as far as I can understand both of the guys wanted first billing, they wanted their names first, Newman and Biddiel, Biddiel and Newman, Rob Newman wanted his name first because he believed he was the intellectual comedian behind the pair. He was the driving force, As the rift deepend between the 2 this sketch became more and more cruel until they were just ripping the piss out of each other. They wrote their own lines..

    No that's Vic Reeves. There's plenty of evidence, Newman was capable of subtlely nuanced impersonations like his art-teacher guy. You sound like you're not really familiar with his material. You are right about Baddiel though, having some witty and clever moments. They certainly were moments. Maybe one an hour. Baddiel was never funny, just a twat with a wobbly voice like Ian Hislop. Bet you think he's great too.
