Martin and Olivia as the lower-middle-class husband and wife in a documentary-type-thing in sketches from the short-lived, one-series-only sketch show 'Bruiser' (2000) starring Olivia Colman, Martin Freeman, Matt Holness, Charlotte Hudson, David Mitchell and Robert Webb.
Oh, Martin. You're so fish-belly white it almost makes me cry. On the other hand, that's only one single layer of cloth separating my eyes from his bollocks. XD
"No, I like 'em." -- Best line. Ever. Martin in beads is ADORABLE.
Clips are from episodes 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5

This is one of my favourite sketches. There's no gimmick to it, or like a punchline or joke as such, it's just dialogue between two characters. I have met people exactly like the husband and wife, a very certain kind of British person that these two portray perfectly, not just with the London working class accent, but their mannerisms and idiosyncrasies. The kind of language they use and the way they lay out their ideas and thoughts is just so fucking accurate to that certain type of people you meet in London, the UK and probably elsewhere in the world. And it's just them talking and the writing is just fantastic because while it's very funny, plays out like it could be an actual real conversation a couple would have.

I will never put a TV in front of a sofa in my house. I hate the whole "tv is the center of our lives" thing. Tv is a solo activity; if I have company I want to have conversation. I mean, in theory. I haven't *had* company, per se, yet. But I only just turned 40 so it will probably happen eventually and I will let you know how it turns out.

Jokes aside, this is a *scarily* accurate portrayal of how many British couples are actually like this: the constant arguments, mutual disdain for each other, sniping and childish insults, and just a total lack of any positive emotional connection
