2025-02-07 00:49:19 +0000 UTCBoomers I've watched all these dark place reactions a few times each, so glad you are enjoying them, thought you would. I've been having a stressful month so it genuinely lifts the spirits to laugh along with you discovering the endless fun of Darkplace for the first time. I'm telling you now you will miss it when it's gone, there is nothing quite like it! But the mighty boosh I'll help with the surreal withdrawals!

2025-02-04 22:38:55 +0000 UTCThey're absolutely brilliant, I have both. Signed by Garth, went to both live shows.

2025-02-04 16:00:44 +0000 UTCI love they used classic bikes, a Raleigh Chopper Mk1 and Raleigh Grifter...takes me back to my childhood in the 70's and 80's

Joe Thornhill
2025-02-04 05:18:35 +0000 UTCWell, I hope you show her OFAH next, seeing as you're already nearly done with this. I know I've gone on and on about Outnumbered with QB. But she's got to see the best and you've got the see Rock 'N' Chips already.
Joe Thornhill
2025-02-04 05:08:38 +0000 UTCWhen you watch this show, think of it as somthing that has been directed and written by a 6 year old, it will make a lot more sense then 😆 The Monkey Boss was Noel Fielding btw

2025-02-04 00:56:52 +0000 UTCAlice Lowe who plays Dr Liz Asher has written 3 films and Directed two of them herself and they're all really good, actually the first film she wrote with Steve Oram called 'Sightseers' is just brilliant, absolutely hilarious, I'd love to see you react to it one day.

2025-02-03 23:38:45 +0000 UTCOne thing we can often do well in the UK is know when to end a comedy series!
Eleanor Elliott
2025-02-03 22:01:41 +0000 UTCIn 'The Office' he was the IT guy know-it-all/braggard who fixes Tim's (Martin Freeman) computer whilst talking to Gareth about Chuck Norris in Bruce Lee movies, wasn't he ?

2025-02-03 21:52:14 +0000 UTCI really hope KB and QB check out the full length making of "documentaries" that were on the dvd's. They're on youtube and they're basically much extended versions of the interviews we get in the show. They're worth it for the extremely dark Dean Lerner lore alone. His comments in this episode about Madeline being dead are the tip of the psycho iceberg. I'd contend it's Richard Ayoades career best work.
Paflad
2025-02-03 20:26:47 +0000 UTCyeah, she's much funnier than KB
Dave Roberts
2025-02-03 20:18:59 +0000 UTCYou think it's bad now, wait until you're so confused that you turn up to daycare one day with Jane strapped into a walker.
Z is for Zed
2025-02-03 19:56:30 +0000 UTCIf they'd seen Boosh they'd be able to recognise him from the incoherent noises alone.

2025-02-03 19:30:43 +0000 UTCTo be fair to the hypothetical rats the poor do throw less stuff in the trash.

2025-02-03 18:55:04 +0000 UTCI love the little detail that you can see Dean behind the camera in the mirrors and water room.

2025-02-03 18:51:25 +0000 UTCI've got them on audiobook. Getting close to finishing the first, and I've loved every moment. I actually find the book much funnier than the series.
Jay
2025-02-03 18:44:25 +0000 UTCEpisodes 3 and 4 were always the weakest for me. I feel like they book-ended the series with two strong episodes at the beginning, and two strong episodes at the end, with the middle two being the weakest. They're all still great though.
Jay
2025-02-03 18:42:46 +0000 UTCMighty Boosh next would be so good, to continue the surrealism!

2025-02-03 18:16:02 +0000 UTCLoved the Sean Connery impression by QB 😂 Made me laugh 😂
Ryan
2025-02-03 18:11:56 +0000 UTCThey've actually released some Garth Marenghi books recently. They're pretty insane.
Will
2025-02-03 17:59:13 +0000 UTCI forgot he was in FND. He was also the tech guy in The Office, who said he once flipped a car over multiple times in the air and landed it perfectly, pulled over and said what were you worried about. I haven’t seen him in a whole lot besides the follow up show Man To Man, he did appear as Warwick Davis’ ex wife’s boyfriend and solicitor in Life’s Too Short.
James Ellison
2025-02-03 17:58:11 +0000 UTCHaha his one and only appearance in The Office is epic. The "Oh gone off Dawn now have you?" In front of Tim's girlfriend is very much like him as Garth predicting a future of women mechanics "and who knows they might even do a decent job." 🤣
Paul Draper
2025-02-03 17:55:13 +0000 UTCThe head monkey was Richmond from IT crowd!
Will
2025-02-03 17:39:56 +0000 UTCThe IT Crowd's Richmond (Noel Fielding) as the king of the monkeys in the bike chase.
Nick
2025-02-03 17:39:32 +0000 UTCWow, I had no idea that was him. I knew he was in one episode of the Office but i've watched Friday Night Dinner countless times and not spotted that!
electricduckpond
2025-02-03 17:33:06 +0000 UTCI don't know if anyone has pointed this out yet but you would've seen (briefly) the actor playing Garth Marenghi, Matthew Holness before - he was in Friday Night Dinner, series 1 episode 1, as the guy coming to collect the sofa, who finds his dad has just died and drinks one of the glasses of water with salt in by one of the brothers, leaves thinking the family are totally messed up 😆
