Rhys Darby

Yeah.

There's a sheep farmer in Huntly called Rhys Darby.

Is there actually?

That's good.

New Zealand decides it needs a spy department and they recruit these three hapless idiots and train them to become spies to stop a plot that Australia is going to basically ruin New Zealand.

So is Rhys Darby one of the spies

out of interest? he's not no

Brett McKenzie's in it no Brett McKenzie's

Andy, he's great.

Like Rhys Darby pops up as Psycho Sam, who's like a well-known, I love Rhys Darby.

He's so good.

He's so good.

Rhys Darby, thank you so much for talking to The Hard Shoulder.

And Edinburgh as well.

And then Rhys Darby from New Zealand.

And just, there's so much going on.

There's so many amazing comedians.

I love watching Andrew Maxwell, actually, because I've done a lot of late night shows with him.

And I think he's done like 30 years at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

Do you know what I mean? Like, it'll be great to see Rhys Darby.

The international acts as well.

Um, They got into some heavy stuff with Pike.

I think that Rhys Darby is well cast as Trelane.

Whether I think Trelane should be on this show or not, I think he does a good job with it.

And they sort of set it up in this one that, I mean, obviously, I mean, they didn't say it, say it, but it's Trelane and he's a Q, right? And so, and they're setting it up like Trelane is the Q that discovered humanity and led to their interest in humanity that we see in TNG and onward.
