   The other guy in the clip was Alfred Molina, well known in thespian circles. Obviously impressed with Mr.Brand’s incredable improv skills.

   Bring back “Just a Minute”.I still give the nod to the late Sir Clement Freud although Russell Brand seems to be heading in the right direction.Alfred Molina’s repetition call is drafted directly from “Just A Minute’

   He’s a clever and thoughtful guy underneath that larrikin image. His column in the Guardian about the UK riots is well worth reading, (http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2011/aug/11/london-riots-davidcameron) as is his tribute to Amy Winehouse (on his blog.)

   BE: Thanks for that, Judith. The Guardian article is brilliant.
