Blimey, I had no idea they actually existed.
Good detective work.
I was about to apply to Dragons Den. Oh well.
I like the blue one best. 
Of course Steven's father is Brian Blessed. It had to be.
Nice gags about the Beeb, and Annie Lennox in ep.3.
What an odd, but good episode it was last night - I loved the Bob Monkhouse material?! It was also great to see Pat Shortt again who played the scary Tom (without his trademark 'I Shot JR' t-shirt sadly) being cast by Mathews.
I do wonder what the musical numbers bring to the party though? They are a bit odd. Also, what was with the 'live' version of the theme tune being performed at the end with Mark Morriss, late of The Bluetones on guitar?
I was confused as to why it was Matt Berry here and not his character?

Yes, it was odd. For example, when Berry and his musical cohorts performed the theme tune from 'Sorry' at the end of a festive edition of 'Screenwipe' he was credited as himself.
He's quite established as a musician, and is currently touring with his band, Matt Berry & The Maypoles:

Knowing all that in advance, it didn't seem odd to me to see him with his band at the end, playing the theme song to his series. He probably saw it as a promotional opportunity.
Looks like it worked, as it aroused your curiosity.

That was a bit odd. Although I did quite fancy the screechy singing woman.

On the strength of this, I joined a 'Matt Berry Appreciation Club' on Facebook. Apparently there was a bit of a dodgy review in the Gourniad of one of their recent gigs: http://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/dec/11/matt-berry-and-the-maypoles-review-forum-london?CMP=twt_a-culture_b-gdnculture
This statement is pretty much spot on though:
"If you've ever battled through one of their often atrocious novels, you'll know it's tough for comedians to be taken seriously."
The funniest and silliest (yet clever) sitcom around by a long chalk. Long may it continue.
That was great that was.
Harry Peacock is very well built isn't he? Lucky old Katherine Parkinson.
