Last time I checked in CEX, Human Remains was going for... six quid I think. Bound to be cheaper on Amazon though. It's a good enough two disc set: commentary on all the eps, some filmed footage of the pair of them improving lines at home and an extra episodes of sorts with two of the characters from the series as a support act at a real life concert.

You can certainly see a Marion and Geoff flavour in some of Rob's characters and there's glimmers of Jill throughout, but so much more too.

Just watching this on DVD for the first time in ages.

Julia Davis's character is unbelievable in a brilliant funny sort of way. Self-centred? Hah!

She's been in everything. And has kissed every male comedian I like.
She is a jammy bint.

Jammy means lucky, and it was made perfectly clear that no one cared about the use of the word bird.
So what in cock's name are you on about?

Zooo, a friendly post, love pun 'cock'!.
Bint is a derogatory term for girl or woman, considered offensive in Arabic.
Can we be friends now?.

Bint is derogatory here too. So what? It's a brilliant word as used by Basil Fawlty.

What do you mean, does jammy not just mean lucky?
Does it mean something like 'not deserving' as well? Can't be arsed to look it up myself.

In my opinion you can call someone lucky, even if they are pretty and talented and deserve what they've got.
In fact, isn't being pretty the very essence of luck? People don't do anything to earn it, they're born that way.

P.S. Way to quote something I said 3 and a half years ago. Did it take you that long to type?

Do a crawl up the stairs on hands and knees. It's fun plus you can pretend you're not exerting any effort.

I am too tired.

If I can make it to the bottom step I am going to lay face down and pretend I am a woman at a bar trying to pull a bloke (cos I am probably ugly or retaining water). I will flutter my eyelashes so much that they will slowly pull me up the stairs. If I get tired halfway up I can have a break and, while I am still a woman, I can have a sneaky look at my tits (which will probably be ugly or be retaining water).

Wouldn't pitch it on Dragon's Den because it is a shit idea and no one would buy into it. Apart from The old woman on it (who is ugly and probably retains water).
