@Boxerbeetle...epic find and some very, very clever and refreshing advertising
Why can't all ads be that good and witty and fair play to Lord Christopher as well.

Kind of glad that I am now too old to be youth hostelling though...thought of arriving at a Budapest hostel at two in the morning and dropping a seven stone backpack on Lord Eubank's bunkbed does not bear worth thinking about.

Thats effing brilliant beetle,i want to see it

I always thought it would make a good show!

Not as good as monkey tennis.

I used to go Youth Hostelling when I was younger, but only in the UK.

Funnily enough - I was thinking of going interailing next year, I'm 44, maybe it's a mid life crisis!

It will simply come down to how much you like your own space ,I've stayed in hostels and some can be like a 4 star hotel with swimming pools and hot tubs others not ,I don't think I could do it now though as having to share a room with 5 others just isn't for me having said that a set of ear plugs and a eye mask and it's not so bad .

I still await Skirmish with bated breath, as well.

Wait until I get the old McDonnell Wanger out and start flagellating myself, they'll soon depart.

@ Jim..... That should do it ....that used to be my party trick on stag dos ,it's one way of getting your own bed when ever I go away with the lads there's always a fight about who has to share with me normally I end up with with my own room even if it means others have to share beds ...apparently it's not acceptable to tug yourself off while sharing a room or bed .....

Steve Coogan alongside Eubank as a double act would work for that show I think.

Why did it say "Coming Soon............maybe..." Was the whole thing just a joke as there was no obvious plug for a brand. Or are they actually making this TV show?
I'd watch it in any case. I find him a very entertaining character and I like to listen to his philosophies an' that.

No, it's just an ad for hostelworld, riffing on the joke in Alan Partridge.

Smell my cheese you mother!

Partridge was a pioneer and a man ahead of his time.

A haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Eubank with another pearl of wisdom

' The littler the man, the less the fall'. Gotta love Eubank
