Tamsin was also in Shaun of the Dead, albeit briefly. In fact, there are a lot of actors in both: Simon Pegg Nick Frost Dylan Moran Tamsin Greig Peter Serafinowicz, Jessica Hynes, Mark Donovan, Martin Freeman, Rob Brydon and David Walliams.

2024-07-16 15:37:08 +0000 UTCJust paused the video to go watch the Waffle House plating system. WTF is that all about lol. I'd find it easier to just remember the actual order rather than remembering what each object is supposed to mean.

2024-07-15 05:40:46 +0000 UTCIt always surprises me when people google things about shows and actors. The IMDb app is a really easy go-to for that type of information.

2024-07-14 20:37:05 +0000 UTCIt was definitely King Boomer but he does talk more. Regardless of use: KB: ~49 QB: ~22

Joe Thornhill
2024-07-14 15:50:07 +0000 UTCYeah, I thought that when we first saw it, months ago.

2024-07-14 15:47:36 +0000 UTCExcellent ep and reaction. ♥ You'd both *really* love Simon Pegg's 'Spaced'. Only 2 series and 12 eps in total. Fab, fast-paced sitcom. Stuffed with movie and pop culture references.
Jason Scade
2024-07-13 22:29:23 +0000 UTCIs that the 'Alan meets The Milky Bar Kid' one? That is a really outstanding sketch.
Jason Scade
2024-07-13 21:16:43 +0000 UTCBlimey KB, your touch typing was quite impressive at the end there! Have you ever considered a career in professional typing (where you'd probably have to deal with a very dull office environment, with a supervisor like Simon Pegg, and for a fairly average wage). Am I not selling it to you?

2024-07-13 17:50:19 +0000 UTCHave you seen the sketch Alan Partridge and Simon Pegg did together as part of a live show? It's brilliant, I'll put a link up on your YouTube rec's

2024-07-13 10:42:07 +0000 UTCBill Bailey has recently shaved his head
Rob webber
2024-07-13 09:20:00 +0000 UTCyea Simon Pegg is a comedy genius, definitely check out Spaced, only 2 series too

2024-07-13 06:59:30 +0000 UTCI liked Simon Pegg as Scotty in the recent star trek films.
James MacDonald
2024-07-13 05:12:48 +0000 UTCIt's my favourite episode. Simon Pegg is brilliant.

2024-07-13 04:52:35 +0000 UTCThat waffle house training video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jky5ZXI0axc)... I'm speechless.

2024-07-12 23:41:19 +0000 UTCI think if anyone of the Americans might get it, it might be kb and qb but I see what your saying
Richard Stokes
2024-07-12 22:50:56 +0000 UTCOne of my favourite episodes for sure, next one is my personal favourite though. Elephants and Hens. <3

2024-07-12 21:32:50 +0000 UTC@Chris H Good point. I hope to be proved wrong! :)

2024-07-12 21:11:36 +0000 UTCThat's exactly what people said about Phoenix Nights as well.

2024-07-12 21:08:10 +0000 UTCI watched 3 minutes of the Waffle House, and just told them to get a computer screen.

2024-07-12 20:30:54 +0000 UTCspaced should be defiantly on be on your to react list to do together next

2024-07-12 20:14:22 +0000 UTCAlso one of my favourite Black Books episodes, Simon Pegg is great!
AdamMcAdamface
2024-07-12 20:03:32 +0000 UTCYeah that Waffle House training video is fucking weird. I'd never seen it before!
AdamMcAdamface
2024-07-12 20:02:20 +0000 UTCthe irony of this episode is that bill bailey has just shaved his head IRL.

2024-07-12 19:41:18 +0000 UTCI love Spaced (It's definitely in my top 10 all time comedies), but I feel it doesn't translate very well to US audiences. It's so specific to British cultural references and Gen X experiences, that so much is lost in translation. I would love to be proved wrong but I've seen another American reactor watch it, and so much went over his head.
Jay
2024-07-12 19:36:44 +0000 UTCYou should give Spaced a go to see Simon Pegg and Bill Bailey is in it as a minor character too
Richard Stokes
2024-07-12 19:20:05 +0000 UTCAgree kb I love Simon Pegg in this. My parents were teachers and had a lot of very passive aggressive teacher friends who had a manner like this! This character definitely exists out there!

2024-07-12 19:17:09 +0000 UTCthat kitchen cabinet looks identical to the one in only fools and horses
Bubbles
2024-07-12 19:00:20 +0000 UTCMy favourite episode, followed by the episode where they drink the really expensive wine and then the security door one with Nick Frost. Simon Pegg just elevates everything he’s in, he’s just brilliant.
James Ellison
2024-07-12 18:59:52 +0000 UTCBrilliant episode. Love season 3
Stewart Hainey
2024-07-12 18:52:20 +0000 UTCCoincidentally, Bill Bailey did actually finally cut his hair the other day for the first time in his career.
Steve Read
2024-07-12 18:40:35 +0000 UTCAs a child I remember my mother picking up and putting in her mouth what she thought was a sweet. She didn't take it well when it unrolled and was some kind of woodlouse. Suppose it could have been worse, but it discouraged me from eating random things you find on the floor so there's that.
Z is for Zed
2024-07-12 18:29:19 +0000 UTCWe need to like have a like counter. How many times did KB and QB say the word like and who won?
