Fonejacker

I just had to comment on the new tv show 'Fonejacker' on E4. I have not laughed out loud at a TV programme in so long - it is so funny!

The call where the man wants to buy a dvd player and an LCD TV had me in stitches. The fonejacker pronounces dvd as 'doovde' instead of saying the initials D V D. I found this clip on YouTube - it wasn't the actual one from tonight and isn't quite as funny, but it'll give you an idea.



Then there was the man calling at art gallery complaining that the signature on the painting was all blurry. The receptionist tried to take his name and well I can't explain the noises he was making down the phone but it was hilarious. It's amazing how patient the people receiving the calls are. A regular prank call is the African man with an unpronounceable surname calling to tell the lucky person that he has monies to transfer and asks for their bank sort code and account number.



I suppose this isn't going to be everyone's humour, but I guess because they are real telephone calls and I love a good practical joke, it really appeals to me.

The following is a clip from last week's show:


Roll on next week for some more stupidity!
