[Request] Ian Paisley and Gerry Adams comedy tapes

    I'm looking for a site that does comedy mp3's of people imitating Ian Paisley, Gerry Adams and Gerry Fitt. These are quite a few years old and I used to have them on tape but, I lost them. (I'm looking to transfer to my ipod)

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Cheers,
    New User.

    P.s. I'd be prepared to buy in a shop but, I wouldn't even know what to ask for.
    These comedy sketches are over 10 years old and I know HMV or Virgin don't have them as I looked in there comedy cd section.

    There was a very recent one on 2FM and RTE Radio 1 of Adams and Paisley joining the PSNI, going out on a shift together and ending up in a pub. They do a load of these skits on 2FM in the morning and on the Mooney show, and then repeated usually about 4:35pm each day.

    I know the ones the OP is talking about but I don't have them either. /Not Gift Grub or Scrap Saturday (Dermot Morgan)

    They were very popular in Northern Ireland at the time and were voiced and produced by a guy from Northern Ireland...years and years before Gift Grub.

    OP, I would go as far as to say that they are about 14-15 years old..I remember a sketch where Ian Paisley was commenting on BSE and saying that his wife Eileen had not taken the beef for many years while Gerry Adams retorted that he had heard that Eileen was taking as much beef as she could get.

    I too would like to get my hands on them as they were very, very funny and often very rude with lots of swearing, unlike Gift Grub etc.

    Someone else pointed me in that direction a long time back. I probably should have come back here to say that. Unfortunately he hasn't put any of the older stuff on CD but I did come across a few of his later stuff on e-bay at reasonable prices.

    I've Just received an e-mail from John McBlain and you can now get all his old tapes on CD. :D
