That opening scene was such a great parody of the real, frightening, voice-over anti-piracy bits that were on every VHS tape or DVD... at least in UK, Ireland anyhow. And on the DVD you couldn't even fast forward past it.

There was a real German guy called Armin Meiwes who advertised for someone to come and be eaten. A guy answered the add, and was duly killed. Armin was (oddly enough_) a computer repair technician. The German Metal band Rammstein did a song about it, and on stage one band member (the keyboard player ) gets in a giant couldron while the singer blasts it with a flame thrower. Great stuff to watch.

Richard Ayoade is such a funny guy, anything with him is worth seeing. His "real" personality is probably as socially awkward as Moss, but more knowing and dryly witty. He presented a travel show called Travel Man, where he went on city breaks with other comedians and actors, which is great. The chemistry with some of them is fantastic - my favourite was the amazing Bob Mortimer, who he visited Hamburg with.

Richard Ayoade has a TV series called ' Travel Man' which is basically him travelling to different parts of the world with his famous friends - one show is with Chris O'Dowd ,Noel Fielding too others include many people you'll recognise from mostly British TV shows. No idea about copyright but it was originally commissioned by Channel 4 I think you'll understand what Richard is all about after watching a few of these. He's very precise in how things should be done etc. Take good care of yourselves 😊

My dad remembers the week it was implemented seeing a group in a pub chatting, one of them gets out a packet and the rest instantly notice and don't say a thing, she gets until the moment she's about to light up before realising and then running out to smoke while the rest giggle.
