The ping pong ball man was one of those uniquely Serafinowicz elements. Loved it too

And anyone notice all the recurring references to robots?

Going to watch this when I get home, on too late for me last night, I needed me bed. Looking forward to it.

Repeat tonight seems to be 10 minutes longer "Did I arsk you?" . . .

Watched it, enjoyed it a lot.

So the show was repeated in an announced 'Bumper Edition' and it went out at 12am on Christmas day.......do the BBC just hate the guy or something?

Only joking, but it is still neat to have a comedy show that noone you knows saw and you can try to pass off catchphrases as your own, except for the blank stares out of context . . .

Arks, isn't it? *shrugs*

Anyway, I quite liked it. I really laughed at the idea of Wogan on pot, though he might have milked that one a little too much by the end.
That old character was pretty funny too - the one who bought the games console for the kids. "A ball is coming towards you, type in what you want to do" haha!

I loooooved Butterfield.
The only one I didn't like was 'Did I arks you'. Went on way too long.

Some funny sketches on it, I especially liked the drunk cop, Christmas in the animal kingdom and Al Pacino.

Butterfield, yes! Is he meant to be anyone, or just a Sarayaravic invention?

I honestly don't remember any of those.

Oh I remember the animal kingdon one now! The tinsel spider hehe! Yeah, that one was quite good.

I think he's meant to be a specific bloke that does ads like that.

I've seen someone just the same anyway.

Ooh, I can't think who. I can only think of the Werthers guy but it surely won't be him
Micheal Winner maybe?

Nope. It wasn't someone famous. They were really cheapo ads.

Oh right, mind you the way he speaks is a little bit Michael Winner-y come to think of it.
Anyway it doesn't matter he makes a good character in his own right.
