Spaced

And I put, this is such a weird sort of cast of characters.

Instead of through the keyhole, we're through the wormhole, I think, with Spaced this week.

I wasn't so keen on me in You Versus the World as you are.

Having said that, it did grow on me.

Like, I haven't watched a lot of any of Doctor Who for years.

But generally, I mean, I guess like a lot of people, I do love you know, like a good quality sitcom, I mean, like a lot of the ones that I imagine we have in common, Chris Stebbins, obviously, who's already discussed Red Dwarf and Blackadder, you know, so Red Dwarf, Blackadder would be favourite, Spaced, Porridge is a big favourite sitcom of mine, so like a few of the sort of classic sort of British sitcoms are big favourites, but I think in a sitcom, something which has got story not necessarily important, but if it does have a good one, that's cool.

But like really good characters and a bit of comfort level in there as well, I think has to be done.

I think I'm still a sort of a bit of a sucker for like, I quite like the Big Bang Theory as well, which I know is not to everybody's taste.

So was this Simon Pegg's brain child? Brain child?

Technically speaking, yes, because he worked on Spaced, a TV show with Edgar Wright, and said there was an episode of Spaced featuring zombies and some meth or speed where he kind of hallucinated that he was seeing zombies or dreamt about it and said on the way to a Spaced event to Edgar Wright, we should make a movie about that.

So I guess he had the original idea.

As to who wrote the spaced episode, I'm not sure, but they embraced it and tried for a long time, and Edgar Wright turned down work because they were so dedicated to this project.

Star Wars nerd Yeah Who loves a zombie movie Yeah I go I fucking wish I'd made one of those Or never thought about it

Did you ever watch Spaced? Did you ever watch any of that? Yeah And

it was like I was too young to watch it When it first came out And then by the time I'd watched it I'd already seen so much of the stuff that became Shaun of the Dead and whatever else that you're like yeah but like that episode of Space where they're all finger guns shooting each other yeah and it's shot so fucking well that's amazing like

it's brilliant I feel like because I watched obviously The Running Man recently like Edgar Wright's last couple of films I've liked them to an extent But I don't know if it's just, it's just cliche to go after the Coronado trilogy.
