What happened to Richard Coyle? He was in a supernatural type thing.

Was that Strange? With Samantha Janus?

Although he does deserve failure since he was a bit of a shit when he upped and left Coupling, refusing to even speak to Steven Moffat.

Is that true? Oh, I don't like that!

Strange?

Oh... :)

Oh no! Don't burn bridges with the Moffat!
He coulda been in Doctor Who. :(

Oh... :)

Great minds 'n' all that. :)

What happened to Richard Coyle? He was in a supernatural type thing. And a film set in Wales. I haven't seen him since. In fact, he seems to have done the worst out of all the Coupling stars. Although he does deserve failure since he was a bit of a shit when he upped and left Coupling, refusing to even speak to Steven Moffat.

Yikes. Really? That's not cricket.

And in regards to the original question, I saw him in something recently but I have no idea what.

But he now treads the boards.

Just randomly choose any three from the last 5 years (with the honourable exceptions of Green Wing and the tail end of Black Books) and you'd be close enough to the mark...

First time I've ever heard about him refusing to speak to The Moff.

Coupling, yeah. Lovely plots, but a bit shy on jokes.

I never laughed at it, but it was loved apparently. Didn't they try to make a US version of it?

They did. Sadly.

Ben, there is just something very wrong with you.

Coupling. That was very over rated.

I find Moffatt over-rated generally.

Watch one of his Doctor Whos. Brilliant. I like Coupling, but often find it a bit stiff and forced.
