Lee and Herring were a British comedy duo from the 1990s, while slightly ‘safer’ than some of their peers such as Chris Morris they still managed to produce some intelligent and daring comedy. Their show ‘This morning with Richard not Judy’ took some amazing risks considering it’s Sunday Lunchtime timeslot, risks such as ‘Sunday heroes’.

Sunday heroes was a weekly sketch featuring a rather studenty looking Jesus, his phoney beard wearing disciples and a lot of people going, ‘Aaaahh’. Due to the twin wonders of technology and stealing I now present you with the best of these sketches.

By the way, I didn’t upload any of these to youtube so if any of you did sorry, I wasn’t trying to steal your credit or anything.

Thanks TSS for the links,

“Screw the lily !”  Hilarious.

This is great stuff. Lily’s and the Last Supper are quite good.
This and the Brick Testament are worth a look.

If only more people had pressed Jesus for more specificity WHEN WE HAD THE CHANCE…. Things might have turned out differently. Aaaahh, indeed.
