Dave Gorman's Googlewhack Adventure

That, initially, was a thing I used to do on the radio. So I did this show on Absolute Radio for a while, and I did it with – well, a few other people came along the way – but initially I did it with two people called Danielle Ward and Martin White, both of whom are brilliantly funny people. And we started off, and the plan was always, ‘Let’s just find our feet, and things will occur to us, and we’ll end up with some features, but let’s not format the entire show from day one.’

In 2020, Gorman began setting cryptic crosswords for three British newspapers, first to The Independent under the pseudonym "Bluth" [36] then to The Daily Telegraph under the name "Django" and to The Guardian under the name "Fed". [37] Personal life [ edit ] So, er, ‘no’ is the one word answer. And everything I said before no is the slightly clumsy longhand one.Gorman appeared in one episode of Absolutely Fabulous in 2001. He played the part of Rimmer, a photographer, in the fourth season's third episode " Paris". He also appeared for two series as one of the team captains on the BBC Three television show, Rob Brydon's Annually Retentive. The programme was a comedy about the making of a celebrity panel show hosted by Rob Brydon, and ran from 2006 to 2007. In 2006, he also became an occasional contributor on Comedy Central's The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. He has listed among his ambitions a wish to become a captain on the quiz show Call My Bluff. Gorman began performing the stage show in Australia during March 2003, a fortnight after the events had happened. He started at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, from where the show moved to the Sydney Opera House and became the biggest-selling show at the Studio Theatre there. Gorman performed at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in August 2003 before touring around the UK for three months, finishing at the Hammersmith Apollo. In America, he performed at The Comedy Festival in 2004. He then toured Australia and England again and performed at the Canadian Just for Laughs festival in July 2004. A three-month Off-Broadway run led to tours of North America in spring and autumn 2005. [5] Edinburgh Fringe: Dave Gorman's PowerPoint Presentation". thecourier.co.uk. 13 August 2011.

One of the things that comes through most clearly, when you read them, is that none of the people – almost none of the people involved – are having a conversation. Nobody is reading anything else. It’s a bunch of people shouting into the void, because they haven’t read the twenty comments before them. If someone replies to them, they don’t read it. So it’s the most pointless communication. I know opinion is fine, but there are some things that are empirically, factually incorrect. And it’s not a conversation. I don’t know who they think they’re talking to. I find it most peculiar.

And yeah, I’ll give you one sentence from that bit. It’s not spoken by me, it’s on one of the VTs: “That was really intense, wasn’t it? That got quite brothel-y.” And I’ll leave it at that, and leave your imagination to go wherever it goes. Um, so that felt like such a weird leap in the dark. As things do, in hindsight, you go, ‘Obviously that was right. It obviously works.’ But at the time, you’re like, [squeaky voice] ‘I don’t know if this is gonna work or not.’ But it did.Dave Gorman's Modern Life Is Goodish gets two more series from Dave".
