Fun fact (revealed on the Series 2 DVD cast commentary) - all the music you hear in this episode, not just what you see being played but even the music you're hearing on the radio that Manny turned on, was all recorded by Bill Bailey, he's literally dueting with himself.

Nina Conti is the daughter of the Actor Tom Conti and she is one of the funniest ventriloquists performing today,her using members of the audience as 'dummies' is hysterically funny and worth a reaction on their own!

Kate's played by Nina Conti, went on to be a well known ventriloquist with her puppet Monkey. Sometimes the puppet's just a character, sometimes she comes across as Nina's therapist.

@munky342 Ай бұрын

I usually like ventriloquists, but everything I've seen of her and Monkey does nothing for me. For most it is easy to suspend my disbelief. She seems less skilled at being able to sell the act, so to speak. Just not for me, I guess.

@Chackravartin Ай бұрын

Anyone complaining you pause so much - here's the thing - GO BUY THE DVD! Or go find another channel where they just hit play. Literally the clue as to what the channel is about is in the title. It's their reaction as much as the show and I like it. I like to hear their thoughts, their jokes, their views and the journey of discovery as he learns about shows he has never been exposed to before.

Love the reaction guys. I was lucky enough to not know how talented a musician Bill Bailey was, so the scene where he discovers his talent was a huge surprise. I got goosebumps, being totally blind-sided by it. One of the best episodes. not only because of Bill's talent on full display but the rest of it is hilarious.

I saw Dylan Moran perform live last night and it didn't go that well. He was the headline act and came on with a beer and was a little drunk. I don't think many people knew his comedy that well as he is very much how he appears in Black Books, a good few dozen walked out during his performance and heckled him, then Dylan walked straight off stage and the compere had to return to the stage and did some standup. The first time I have seen a comedian walk off midway through their performance.

@tileux Ай бұрын

5 hours, yikes. The longest my daughter ever took to go to sleep was 4 hours. And that drove me almost insane. Bill Bailey is not just a musician. He's a genuine Professor of Music and teaches music at university. He is insanely musically gifted. His live comedy shows are a musical extravaganza and definitely worth watching if there are any online. He actually used to do that thing with the piano in some of his shows.
