AlanHOST
And just to mention the director, actually, the director, whose name is Martin Dennis, is He's like, you know, long, long career.
AlanHOST
His first credits were on Alo Alo, right? So he's trained at the best with the best of them.
AlanHOST
But then did Men Behaving Badly relatively early and seems to have done pretty much every Simon Nye project since then, certainly the bigger, more successful ones.
AlanHOST
So, yeah, obviously him and Simon Nye had a good thing going.
David O'DohertyHOST
I'm at the Edinburgh Fringe at the moment living with Frances Celia AB, who had never...
David O'DohertyHOST
She knew what 'Allo 'Allo! was-
Danny WallaceGUEST
[laughs]
David O'DohertyHOST
... because people would say it to her.
David O'DohertyHOST
And so we watched a minute of 'Allo 'Allo!.
Danny WallaceGUEST
Oh, wow.
David O'DohertyHOST
First observation, it's really bleak.
David O'DohertyHOST
Right?
Rob HuttonHOST
[laughs]
Mark WallaceGUEST
I suppose it's a little bit like watching Allo Allo without having seen Secret Army.
Rob HuttonHOST
Yes.
Mark WallaceGUEST
And the Secret Army is li- is essentially forgotten, but Allo Allo has a life of its own as if it was completely-
Rob HuttonHOST
Yes
Mark WallaceGUEST
... as if it was completely standalone.
Rob HuttonHOST
And I think, I, I think watching Secret Army now would be quite strange to those of us who have-
Mark WallaceGUEST
I haven't been told [laughs]
Alan CorcoranHOST
TV, film, gaming, and pop culture to the southeast, with a star-studded lineup, and some of the names, I have them here in front of me.
Alan CorcoranHOST
I love the old, uh, British sitcoms, by the way, and one of those I definitely love is 'Allo 'Allo!.
Alan CorcoranHOST
I'm joined first off by our very own John Michael Murphy.
Alan CorcoranHOST
Good morning to you, John Michael.
John Michael MurphyGUEST
Our aim is to be completely cross-generational." So there's something, uh, from the grandkids up to the grandparents, all the way through.
Alan CorcoranHOST
Yeah.
Alan CorcoranHOST
Can I now straightaway cut to chase and ask you about the 'Allo 'Allo! characters? Herr Flick is there, Lieutenant Gruber is there, and Private Helga is there.
Alan CorcoranHOST
Not only that, I'm told that they're actually gonna be there in their costumes.
Toby HadokeHOST
Uh, I think I, I, I noticed that Carmen Silvera was the Queen of Hearts, and then I think I must have worked out that, oh, actually, right, they, they play all of the, all the people.
Toby HadokeHOST
But I, I noticed that Carmen Silvera was the lady off of 'Allo 'Allo!, and I was very pleased.
Toby HadokeHOST
It was one of my early actor spots.
Toby HadokeHOST
Um, and it's a great idea having Carmen Silvera and Campbell Singer playing, uh, uh, all of the different parts.
Miroslav CukHOST
The first person was born in 1997 in New York City, New York.
Miroslav CukHOST
The second person is not a person, it is a British sitcom.
WadeGUEST
[laughs] Yeah, I'm gonna pass for now and see what this next, uh, this next one looks like.
Miroslav CukHOST
Dan?
Miroslav CukHOST
Second clue should be a tiny bit easier.
Miroslav CukHOST
The first person is a Denver Nugget.
Miroslav CukHOST
The second person is not a person, it is a British sitcom created in 1982 by Jeremy Lloyd and David Croft.
WadeGUEST
Yeah, I s- I still don't know.
JamesHOST
This is where I imagine some of our listeners will know him from.
JamesHOST
Marner played the part of Colonel Von Strohm in the British comedy classic 'Allo 'Allo!
Ross CleaverHOST
Oh, no.
JamesHOST
Appearing, a- appearing in every single episode over its-
AlanHOST
And that is a notable actor.
AlanHOST
That's John Lewis Mansey, who is basically best known as Smallhausen from Allo, Allo.
GarethHOST
All right.
GarethHOST
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
GavHOST
[laughs] Oh, they're already in with it.
GavHOST
Allo Allo! is the right answer.
DanielPANELIST
I was thinking, I wa- I was thinking the guy on the right was John Oliver from [laughs] Last Week Tonight.
DanielPANELIST
[laughs] Like...
GavHOST
I thought it was terrible.
GavHOST
4:20.
GavHOST
Allo Allo! It was just English people making fun of the French and the Germans.
