I never really got into Spaced. Was Miranda Hart in that too? Silver bacofoil really did her no favours.

No I don't think she was ever in it.

There is supposed to be a big picture below both posts but it isn't showing up for some reason.

Ohhhhhhhhhhh, I see.
Well, I don't see.

If you think she was in it then you obviously didn't watch many. Shame on you you philistine - you talk about Aaron and Aqua!! It was a great sitcom.

She was in one of those sci-fi sitcoms.

What the one in space?

You are getting them mixed up because of the word SPACE!

You maroon.

Spaced is not set in space. It is set in Tufnell Park.

That was Hyperdrive. If that's what you meant originially then you have a point. Wasn't particularly good.

Well that's close to Space!

Dad's Army.

Flight of the Concords gets on my last nerve, that manager is the most annoying prick in the world.

Except maybe Graham Norton!

I watched two episodes of Fawlty Towers last night and umm...I'm really coming to the conclusion that it was largely-awful.
Even by seventies standards It's a terribly-cliched, old-fashioned cheesey theatrical farce with one saving grace - John Cleese. His exuberent performance saved the day, although it does seem to me his over-the-top character was borne out of desperately trying to inject life into the limp scripts.

*waits for riot to start*

I know - hardly a popular admission but that's truly how I feel. Don't get me wrong, Cleese was magnificent - but that was all. For me, anyway.

I just had a pee through your letter box. I'm not even sorry.

heh.

You have to admit though, if it wasn't for Cleese, would the show have been so popular? Doubt it.
