On his way up, for example, Jimmy Carr was part of a show where he and a co-host judged a couple’s respective attractiveness, ‘Your Face or Mine’, I believe it was called. Though I only watched for my beloved Sarah Millican and fast forwarded through the ‘real people’ bits, which felt slightly tired ‘Her indoors’ style relationship ‘comedy’.
