Dan & Dan in “Valentine Poem”
Saturday, February 12th, 2011Turn the lights down low, pour another glass of red wine, pop on some light jazz, and slip into something more comfortable: Dan’s written a love poem.

Our new video is up, and it’s about WikiLeaks. And Christmas.
How, might you ask, did Dan manage to write a song that convincingly embraced both those subject matters? Watch and find out.
Rather excitingly, this new sketch is hosted by the BBC, meaning that it appears on their http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy site, and on their Youtube channel. So to make sure our usual Youtube subscribers didn’t miss out, we made this:
Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year!
Dan & Dan
Because economy begins at home.
THE TRUTH IS DOWN THERE.
We’ve not done a video in ages, so here you go. There’ll probably be some better ones soon.
The gig Dan mentions is Popcorn Comedy at the Greenwich Comedy Festival, and it’s on this Sunday 12th September. As with all Popcorn events, it’ll be a super night out I’m sure.
We’re also appearing at the Halloween Music Fair being held at Cecil Sharp House, in Camden, on Halloween. Although it may just be Dan… it depends on, ahem, technical requirements. The whole event will be ace, with lots of different acts and things to do. Dan and I highly recommend it.
They’re both in London, but one day soon we might tour. The only thing stopping us is Dan’s unwillingness to compromise on his frankly unaffordable rider. And also that no-one outside of London has ever booked us.
See you soon!
Dan has a few proposals which Dan really has to agree to if their ‘coalition’ thing is going to work. But that’s fine, because politics is about compromise, right?
Right?
(Er… sorry it’s not another song. We know you like the songs. We’ll do our best to do another one… but until then there’ll probably be a few more waffly ones like this).
Hello all,
A few people have asked for this as an mp3. Go on then, help yourself:
And if you haven’t seen the vid, WHERE YOU BEEN?! It’s here:
See you anon.
Tax doesn’t need to be taxing. Unless, that is, you’re helping Dan with his.
This one is a kind of “Hello” to the sudden influx of Charlie’s lovely viewers, thanks to a little mention he gave our channel at the end of one of his vids. (In Youtube terms, I think it’s fair to say that a “little mention” from Charlie is the equivalent of being tweeted by Stephen Fry…)
Plus there’s a Santa hat in the video. Which is about the nearest we’ve come to doing a Christmas-themed vid…
Anyway, Merry Christmas everyone. And cheers for watching our sporadic output throughout 2009!
Yup, it’s true. Jedward ain’t all they seem.
