I've not seen that either. Is that the Simon Pegg comedy?

That's the one - lot's of surreal and referential humour, very good (if that's your thing).

Spaced and Black Books had very different humour though, Black Books was far more 'slapstick' than Spaced. I honestly don't know which one I prefer, I love both of them (although weirdly there's one episode of Spaced I can't physically watch - the one where they get threatened by that gang after they give them Oregano instead of weed. The guy playing the gang leader actually freaks me out. I have no idea why.)

I may not get a lot of that then.

That's actually one of my favourite episodes - that hold gun fight scene is brilliant as is the earlier fight scene. I also like the 'Clever boys' line.

I'd like the shipping forecast too if Peter Serafinowicz was reading it!

I love BB but I'm actually not a huge Spaced fan. I can watch it, but I didn't buy it. On a related topic, I was watching a bit of Green Wing yesterday - I loved that, bought it as soon as it came out. I had forgotten just how in awe of Sue White I am.

I bought black books based on Zoot banging on about it all the time. It was definitely a good purchase.

Black Books, Green Wing, Spaced... all great comedies that I get the feeling a lot of people just don't get. I love them. Especially Spaced, but then Jessica Hynes (is that her name now?) is seriously hot.

Most people think I'm strange for thinking that.

Oh, you mean Cheryl. I just looked up her surname. I definitely think you're strange Munki Bhoy.
