Sorry I’m late, popped into Tubby’s office (no typo) for a bit. Can I just pick whenever?

Regulation query:

I’ve got a double act, can I post them at the same time and skip a go ?

I would do it separately but I don’t want to give the game away and have someone poaching Bob Carolgees off me

Nope. You have to take the gamble and hope for the best if you want to snag a double act.

Switching to one hour deadlines from now. Need to get this shit going again. CT can pick when he's ready since it appears Pop won't be online again for awhile.

Got it.

Good pick on Chapman CT

I was trying to think which Python I would pick after John Cleese went.  It was very close obviously but I would have picked Chappers.

I'm at a footy camp all week. Anyone trustworthy enough to not steal my Richard Digance pick, that I can give my picks to?

Give the man his pick I am guessing.

Lobo has an hour. Everyone does unless they're AWOL for more than one pick.

Is that his second pick or third pick? Or should I just post in the Accountancy thread?

Going to be gone for an hour or so --- have Chakan text me if people are desperate to get past the middle bowel of the draft where I reside.

Losing Kaufman and Sacha Baron Cohen threw all my plans out the window. But I love Rowan Atkinson in all his various roles. Unashamedly laughed my arse off at Mr Bean and even the movie, Blackadder in all his guises, and his stand up is pretty great too (check out Dirty Names).

I nearly went for Rowan Atkinson. Wasn’t completely sure on the criteria. Best role by far is Blackadder which I think was written by others (not that that really matters). Good picks all round so far, and quite varied.
