They are doing another series, but apparently it's going to be somehow different.

They're also making a second AD/BC Christmas Rock Opera thingy. If anyone's seen the first...?

My mate Berry wrote that! He still hasn't given me a DVD (I don't have freeview)

 

[zoooo]

Your mate?

Mr. Matthew Berry said it's coming out on dvd one day, when they've filmed a part two (so it's worthwhile for anyone to actually part with their cash).

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

Your mate?
).

Matt is a friend of mine, is that confusing?

 

[zoooo]

Yes how can you have friends?
Hoho.
I don't know why it made me do a question mark smilie. It just popped out.

Man To Man With Dean Learner is the name of the new series - it's a sketch show I think

 

[Donna Ferentes]

I used to call it "my sister's boyfriends" because they were all like Garth.

I heard the other day that she'd got married. I wonder....

No, it's a pisstake chat show with fake guests, I was in the audience for one of the episodes. The bird on the sofa..........

Dean Learner- was that Richard Ayoade's character in Darkplace?

Correct - I was wrong - Garth is one of the guests

Aye

This is being repeated on Tuesday nights (Wednesday early mornings, really) at the moment.

I should have told you this yesterday, shouldn't I? Aw well, plenty of notice for next week's.

 

[Moggy]

The DVD is out soon!

The 'u75's Comedy of the Millennium FINAL' thread reminded me of how great Garth Merenghi really was.

Anyone know if there is going to be another series? Also, I heard that Matthew Holness might be in development with a film script.

If you don't have any news why not post a funny quote from the series... like so:

Dean Learner: "If he gets word of this my arse is grass and he's got a lawnmower if you know what I mean?"

great show. This is what i call original comedy.

uuuh acid preist, thats this thread you just linked to :S

anyway bought darkplace yesterday on dvd without ever having seen it and it was one of the most random 3 horus ive ever spent but i thought it was amazing, i loved dean learners shotgun and cigar technique of killing flying plates

 

[Ned Pointsman]

Watched man to man lastnight, pretty good, though the audience/laughter track was annoying.

"This just goes to show the dutch are already running whitehall."

 

[Moggy]

Really need to pick this up on dvd...

When is Man to Man on? Saw a trailer for it recently, has it started yet?

EDIT: Shit, just looked in the tv paper and it was on on friday Don't suppose anyone who taped it can somehow .avi it and send it to me, or upload it as a torrent?
