And you thought Podge & Rodge were rude! After a year of being hidden away on late night digital TV, April 17 finds Bronx Bunny expleting his way on to terrestrial telly with Channel Four who are letting him out of his hutch every Saturday at 1.15am.
Regular items include Internal Gerbil (explaining the organs of the body); Pole Position (super-flexible pole dancers who create numerical shapes); and Helpful Spanish Phrases (“Your mother bangs like a screen door in a tornado”) Bronx also gets to chew the fat – and carrots – with such top celebs as Hugh Grant, Steve O and John Lydon whose penchant for hand shandies is revealed in the third show in the series.

The highly animated characters include Berno “Skittles” Mooney – “I’m 17 but me ‘tash makes me look older, like” – and a wee goldfish snide by the name of Sean McAdams. Inspired.
As are the track-suited shenanigans going on at student.dcu.ie/~conlann3/skangers/ skangers.html. Sensitive to the suggestion that When Skangers Do Bad Things mightn’t be entirely politically correct, the creators say: “We’d like to point out that all stereotypes represented are purely fictional, any resemblance to real life stereotypes is purely coincidental.”
It’s not in Caught In The Net’s nature to laugh at other people’s misfortunes but, still, we nearly wet ourselves watching the clip of the Shop At Home Network bloke reefing his finger with a samurai sword (Our price $44.95). You can watch the claret pumping at imgsrv.fun4fun.com/public_html/Binnes/12032004/videos/katana.mpeg
Which just leaves time for quick visits to www.kempa.com (old Shakin’ Stevens Spectrum games); www.ifoce.com (can you scoff 134 chicken wings in 12 minutes?); and www.blamemutya.tk (Bert Is Evil for the CD:UK generation).
