Put him with Chris Harris and Rory Reid (they already ditched Evans; ditch Schmidt and Eddie Jordan along with him) and they'll be in decent shape on UK.
Harris and Reid were very good and LeBlanc can do that job. I wouldn't call it dead just yet; they have some nice pieces in place and enough good will to let them gel. [Reply]
I think some of the jokes fell a bit flat, but it was a good first episode overall and I'd imagine that BBC executives are forming a suicide pact right now. [Reply]
