I’d say that was blasphemy, but then again Bolt’s an atheist, so it doesn’t count. An atheist promoted by a far out wacky mob of religious fundamentalists...oh, dear.. Bolt said “God!” at one stage.

I was actually starting to build respect for him halfway through the last joke, anticipating that he would suggest giving the kids back to the <i>parents</i>, but no - mothers are supposed to look after kids in Boltworld. Otherwise I thought he wasn't half bad. Gleeson was funnier - that guy is such a nerd. Good to see Bolty’s 1950’s family values showing at the end.

He's a great person but ad-libbing (or even scripted humour) is not his thing. Mind you, he was funnier than the rest of them.
