Just watched Episode 9. Amazing. Some classic lines there.

The muppet mouth stuff was genius. And the conversation with the kid at the end: "They cleared the cave."

Oddie is like a bearded catherine-wheel cyphering through the crowd.

Episode nine was very good! Had me chuckling out loud.

My favourite way of chuckling.

Can we all agree the answer to this thread title is "good idea"?

I think the answer is 'Good Idea'.

Duh, that's what I said, brainiac.

Well if you're as ridiculously repressed and cynical as I am it takes a lot to actually laugh out loud at something. I'm much more in favour of inwardly chuckling, nodding appreciatively or stroking one's beard. This can be a bit awkward at live comedy gigs in small venues. I'm sure Ken Dodd in his role as Professor Yaffle Chuckabutty probably delivered a few lectures on the subject.

And yes. Good idea.

More awkward if you're the comic, trust me.

episode 9 was fantastic I need to watch episode 10 soon though, I love this webseries I hope they continue to make them.

Just watched 10 and once again it doesn't disappoint. Redefines the word awkward.

The standard of these is just fabulous and they have been a really wonderfully unexpected treat. I find myself looking forward to each new one every week now.

Yes I am quite sad and have very little going for me. :(

Agreed, episodes seven through to ten have been perfect. Forget a movie, they need to do another full series, because these "webisodes" have given the character a new lease of life.
