Shades of last year’s show. Strong debut then falls away as the jokes become lame.

Might have to stop refering to them as ‘Radio Duo’… I’m sure there’s some wanky industry term we can come up with.. how about – ‘Cross Platform Duo’ given they have a million facey mates, shitloads of followers on instagram and twitter, a website, podcasts, a TV show, CD’s to their name and a little radio show. Oh, and one of them even has a logie, which is a TV award right?
