Title: The Pope and Jim Bowen
Post by: Diesel on March 16, 2013, 08:21:49 AM
Many have mentioned the more than passing resemblance between the New Pope and Jim Bowen, I think this may just prove the point.  :D

NOW, I DON'T WISH TO START ANY RELIGOUS OR POLITICAL FIRES HERE, THIS IS FOR FUN ONLY AND IS INTENDED TO BE KEPT IN THAT CONTEXT, SO IF YOU THINK YOU MAYBE OFFENDED, DON'T WATCH THE VIDEO.

Snowy beat me to it, but its typed now.

Jim Bowen is an old school comedian, family safe type humour, who is best know for being the presenter of a TV quiz show called Bullseye,

The quote above is one of his catch phrases he says in the quiz.

Here is a little vid of him, there does seem to be a resemblance.

I wonder if they will introduce one of Jim's catch phrases, You Have The Time It Takes For The Bible To Revolve To Decide If You want Absolution.  :LOL:

In Bowens own words "It was crap, we set television back by 30 years".

It was a great watch though  :D
