      @@MK-rk4no I don’t know how anyone can describe this sketch as “crap” but we all have different tastes. it seems like you may have a bias towards the real McCoy cos it was the original and the original of anything is always seen as the best. It doesn’t matter who covers the song “yesterday” it will never sound as good as when Paul McCartney sung it in 1965. maybe because i was an Asian lad in the 80s I could relate to 90% of the sketches in GGM. I loved the real McCoy but preferred GGM the fact the it wasn’t “the original” didn’t bother me
