ā€œIm sure I can resist its charms till then… … :champagne: waheeeyā€

Big Train was good. Maybe not as baseline funny as the Fast Show, but more left field. Unfairly maligned at the time.

Instinctively dislike Spaced because I came to it late through the medium of some irritating uni acquiantances quoting it ad verbatim to each other constantly. It’s probably alright.

Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz are quality popcorn experiences. World’s End is post Pegg going full wanker and suffers accordingly.

I don’t like Simon Pegg.

Never watched Spaced

Really liked Hot Fuzz though (even though I generally can’t stand Simon Pegg)

Big Train seemed like a pretty run of the mill, slightly alternative sketch show at the time. Some classic bits (staring contest et al) but nothing special

so… yeah

Ahahaha… thrush

When Peter Serafinowicz says ā€œI’m not a monster, Timā€

(whilst sounding exactly like a monster)

Think about the excellent quality of that line-reading almost every single day of my life. He’s so good. Love him.

No but it’s on the list

Yeah…that thing you were saying earlier about bodyguards. Was that some sort of reference to me not being married?

We could do a Serafinowicz special - get The Tick in there too (now that it’s cancelled :sob::sob:)
