Interview: Matt LeBlanc's porn prank on Tamsin Greig

We found that out during a recent press Q&A with Matt and his Episodes co-stars Tamsin Greig and Stephen Mangan - who play the roles of writers and married couple Beverly and Sean Lincoln - when Matt was asked if he'd played any pranks on them.

Episodes, series 3, BBC Two, review: 'dogged by tedium'

Despite the triteness of the plot, some moments, such as Merc's Lear-esque fit of rage in the howling rain, were very funny. But the problem was that the rest of the programme was dogged by tedium.

Matt LeBlanc needs a little more help from his friends

Matt LeBlanc's Episodes makes a sparkling return

So it's good to see Episodes back, but also perplexing.

Tamsin Grieg had a really bizarre scene to act out in the latest series of BBC Two comedy Episodes.

When her character Beverly Lincoln and husband Sean (Stephen Mangan) visit a Los Angeles sex therapist, Bev's told to imagine what a certain part of her body might speak to Sean like....

"Yes my vagina gets to talk!" laughed Tamsin, when she recently spoke to What's On TV about the third series of Episodes. "The Sex Therapist says to Bev: 'If your vagina could talk, what would it say to Sean?' And Bev replies: 'If my vagina could talk we'd be having a whole different set of problems...'

"When Beverley finally turns to Sean and talks to him as her vagina, it's in a deep Yoda-like voice from Star Wars. It was difficult to keep a serious face.

"When I first read the script, I thought: "That's not how my vagina talks! My vagina would never say that!" The depths of depravity that you can reach really are self-inspired.'
