Friends-across-the-Ocean edition, we welcome first of all, oversexed, overacting and over here, Greg
Proops. Then we have from the Comedy Store Players, the overwhelming Josie Lawrence. And then back again,
over my dead body, Tony Slattery. And finally, overdue but not too much overweight, Mike McShane.
Ladies and gentlemen, the contestants!"
"Hello and welcome to Whose Line is it Anyway?, the improvisation show to end all improvisation shows, or
rather to start them. And this week contesting we have Archie Hahn, from the wide open spaces of America.
Then we have Josie Lawrence from the flat open vowel sounds of the West Midlands, and the Comedy Store
Players. Then we have Tony Slattery, who I don't think has been on television before. And finally, back
on the spot, John Sessions. Ladies and gentlemen, the contestants!"
"Hello and welcome to Whose Line is it Anyway?, featuring this week from the world of American
improvisation, Ron West of the Chicago Second City theatre company. Then Griff Rhys Jones, from the world

comedy and improvisation, Paul Merton of the Comedy Store Players. And finally, from a world of his own,
John Sessions. Ladies and gentlemen, the contestants!"

Francisco stand-up comedy. Then we have Josie Lawrence, who's very big in the Comedy Store Players. And

who's very big. So, ladies and gentlemen, the contestants!"

edition, starring first of all Ryan Stiles, from Los Angeles' Second City theatre company, who is very
very tall. From the Comedy Store Players, Sandi Toksvig, who is not very very tall. Tony Slattery, who
for some reason is always very very naughty. And finally John Sessions who is very very very very
difficult to describe. Ladies and gentlemen, the contestants!"
"Hello and welcome to Whose Line is it Anyway?, and providing the extemporised excitement tonight, we
have first of all Ron West, from Second City in Chicago. Chicago's the Windy City, and another windy
citizen is Jimmy Mulville who.. a Liverpudlian comedian who bases his act very much on Arthur Askey,
Jimmy Tarbuck, and these days Ken Dodd. Then from the Comedy Store in London we have Paul Merton, you
know the expression - 'if you're tired of Londoners, then you're tired of Paul Merton'. And completing
this big city line-up we have John Sessions from Largs. Ladies and gentlemen, the contestants!"
2.07 (Christmas Edition) - Details
"Right, hello, and welcome to Whose Line is it Anyway? for this very special Christmas edition, and here
we are (brings out a small Christmas tree), and unlike most Christmas editions, this is in fact
being recorded really quite close to Christmas, in fact rather closer to Christmas than it is being shown.
But here we are, we should be just in time to catch Hanukkah, I'm told, which is good, because Hanukkah is
of course the Hebrew for Channel Four. So here we are improvising on the night after the night after the
night after Boxing Day we have first of all, Greg Proops, who possibly is from the west coast of America.
Josie Lawrence of the Comedy Store Players from the west Midlands of England. Then the comedian named after
the possibly dullest bit of West London, Paul Merton, also the man behind many of Julian Clary's Stickiest
Moments. And then someone who must be one of the best Danish comedians working in England at the moment,
Sandi Toksvig. And Tony Slattery, who, lets face it, is not one of the best Danish comedians working in
England at the moment. And finally, in this monster six person lineup we have the man who is Father
Christmas, Mr Holly, the three wise men and several Christmas puddings rolled into one, Mike McShane.
Those are the contestants."
"Hello and welcome to Whose Line is it Anyway?, and in a desperate attempt this week to drum up some
sales in the United States of America, we present an almost all American show. Featuring, first of all,
Ryan Stiles, a Canadian of the Second City theatre company in Los Angeles. Josie Lawrence of the Comedy
Store Players, who comes from somewhere near Birmingham, Alabama. Neil Mullarkey, also of the Comedy
Store Players, whose cousin once went on a trip to New York. And finally Mike McShane from Taunton.
Ladies and gentlemen, the contestants!"
"Hello and welcome to Whose Line is it Anyway?, and improvising their way through the games tonight we
have Archie Hahn, for my money the best American import since Chicken McNuggets. Then from the legitimate
theatre, we have Jonathan Pryce, regarded by many as the Sybil Forndike of his generation. From the
illegitimate theatre we have Paul Merton of the Comedy Store Players, a man of a thousand voice. And John
Sessions, regarded as a human chameleon because of his many characterisations, the fact that he can change
colour at will, and the fact that he eats flies. Ladies and gentlemen, the contestants!"
"Hello. Hello and welcome to Whose Line is it Anyway?, featuring this week for the first time, Lee
Simpson, another product of the Comedy Store Players' academy of improvisation, extemporised humour
and related studies. Jan Ravens, who learned her comedy on the streets of Liverpool and in the colleges

McShane, who comes from the home of American comedy, America. Ladies and gentlemen, the contestants!"
"Hello and welcome to Whose Line is it Anyway?, featuring this week, from the Comedy Store Players, Josie
Lawrence, the acceptable face of improvisation. Arthur Smith with the face not quite lived in as squatted
in. And we have also from the Comedy Store players, Sandi Toksvig, with the face that's launched a
thousand quips. And then we have Mike McShane with a face that's also launched a thousand quips and also
two or three chins. Ladies and gentlemen, the contestants!"
"Hello and welcome to Whose Line is it Anyway?, this week featuring this programme's almost resident
American, actor, and man-mountain Mike McShane. And then sometime Muppet gagmaster, comedian, and
man-hillock Chris Langham. Then Comedy Store Player girl wonder and woman-molehill Sandi Toksvig. And
finally the Napoleon of improvisation, infant prodigy and human-tussock, John Sessions. Ladies and
gentlemen, the contestants!"

from San Francisco, stand-up comedian Greg Proops. From the Comedy Store Players, sit-down comedienne
Josie Lawrence. From Saturday Night at the Movies and another rather more obscure television programme,
low-down comedian Tony Slattery. And from who knows where, the can't-put-him-down comedian and one-man
RSC, John Sessions."

Comedy Store Players. The inexplicable Paul Merton, also of the Comedy Store Players. Then the totally
inexcusable Tony Slattery, not of the Comedy Store Players. And finally the indescribable Mike McShane
who's probably never heard of the Comedy Store players. Ladies and gentlemen, the contestants!"
