Another BCG collaboration, this time with myself and Stuart Laws performing the words of Matthew Stott...
I.T. Trouble
Love it.
Enjoyably off-centre and nice performances.
Thanks, guys - appreciate it.
Enjoyed it. Liked the crust gag.
Not sure if the swearing added anything, so go f**k yourselves.
How come the quality appears to be above blu-ray?
Because it was shot HD and encoded as such. And thank you!
Also thanks to Matt Stott for the script, I believe he didn't realise it was being filmed until after the fact. It's a little something Bussell and I like to do, secretly film everyone's sketches.
But the swearing was bleeped! Personally I enjoyed watching Stu complain about how much of a reaming he was getting from his incredibly placid boss.
And the picture quality is all Stu's work, the mini genius.
That's a nice little sketch that, I like it. Personally I would have cut the whole Jane/orphan/nice guy lines as they just seemed like filler to me (there's probably a pun there!). Loved the make a sandwich punchline though, made me laugh.

I liked that bit too.
Great stuff, keep em coming.

P.S. Oh and I would have had a lead coming out of the loaf of bread.
P.P.S. What kind of lighting did you use may I ask?
Really nice, and very professional looking.
Great stuff.
Thanks for all the nice posts; it's quite a slight sketch really, but done, I think, superbly by Bussell and Chopz. Thanks to them for filming it.
There is no denying the quality of the video and the overall sketch is quite funny. Personally I thought is was a little baggy and could probably of done with 10 - 15 secs knocked off run time. But like I say it was pretty darn good 
I did like that. Very good and well done all. There's no denying it's funny and works well.
Personally, I felt you could have gone further with the exaggeration and make it even more ridiculous. Maybe the IT guy could have turned it into something else, then they say that's ridiculous and could we at least have the bread back, but IT guy can't even get the bread back. That's what M&W would probably have done 
Still a top job though!

Cheers, pie face. We only used on location lighting - the magic's in the grade.

No worries, we shot the whole thing in 20 minutes.

That would have been another way to go, sure. I blame the writer for his lack of vision.
Looks very professional. Well done. Did it take much dough to make it?

We shot it at Stuart's office with his own equipment, so no. Unless you count the cost of all the Mountain Dew we drank, which I'm sure Stuart does.
