Karl Pilkington - 3 Minute Wonder: Life

Part 1 of the series famously criticized by "Wendy Robinson", a reader of the Sunday Times who wrote to complain. During Ep04 S03 of the podcasts, the letter was read to Karl.

Steve For people who don’t realise; Karl was making a couple of little 3 minute TV projects recently that were on Channel 4, and in the Sunday Times they err.. someone has written a letter about Karl.. to the Sunday Times (!)
Ricky Wow…
Steve They can send in comments and views on things they’ve seen, read and heard
Ricky Oh, excellent
Steve This is what someone wrote to the Sunday times
Steve "Who is Karl Pilkington and why have I just wasted five minutes of my life listening to some of his cretinous thoughts on Channel 4? He asked why there are so many dinosaurs on display in museums. Qoute, "Couldn't they just choose the best one and just show that?" He summed it all up by deciding that "We know too much". Somebody clearly doesn't know enough to know that this is a complete waste of air time, showing no wit, intellect or creativity."  
Steve That’s from Wendy Robinson in Berkshire.
Karl You've gotta have your critics. Know what I mean?
Steve You’ve got to have your critics?
Karl Course ya have. If everybody liked what you did then you’re not doing the right thing

 
 
Karl Pilkington - 3 Minute Wonder: Holidays

 

Part 2 of the series shown on Channel 4. I don't know if there were any more complaints. Karl's response to Wendy Robinson from Berkshire was:

Karl Well alright then we’ll watch Wendy’s little programme when that goes out. See what she’s got to talk about. Sick of her..
