Bruiser - Inept Q

Күн бұрын

David Mitchell as harebrained Q and Martin Freeman as the hapless secret agent 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.
I must say, I love the wigs. David looks so cute when it's standing on end. And Martin looks good in a suit. :D
Clips are from episodes 1, 2, and 3.

Ah yes, the mounted machine gun. It may appear to be a deadly force on the outside; but, on the inside, it is no more than just a simple plant pot holder and coat hanger. Take an unsuspecting Commie Garden Community. They will be none the wiser to your chic elegant choice of war-themed pottery and announce you the winner of any gardening competition may it be for your striking design or for fear of it. And, right under the Russian rug, you’ll have stolen both the dignity of the Russians and their precious communal gardening medallions. Better put the goggles on.
