This whole segment should have meant the start of a new TV series with the premise they joke into existence

@CamstonIsland 8 ай бұрын

Hence Tom's comment about it being out of 'Maid Marian and her Merry Men!' The difference between them and comic greats like Monty Python, Blackadder, etc. is probably more in the fact that TechDif stop here at the ideation phase. A full on programme from them based on these (in a similar vein to their TechDifShow, minus the Top Gear format) would be most splendid.

An absolute masterpiece as always! As someone who’s watched TechDif dozens of times I’m always excited to see what spin you put on it. You breathe such life into every joke and elevate even the mildly amusing into true hilarity. My suggestion for your ever expanding list is the Will Seaward ‘Panthers?’ part of the Stephan’s Island Wren episode. (I wonder what shape his head would become? Maybe a trapezoid?) Have a great day and thanks so much for the art!

Thank you for the borderline prose of praise there! I can just imagine Will Seaward's trapezoidal face poking from behind a cabinet door...

@@CamstonIsland Matt, Gary, and Tom are like newborn foals first learning to walk. Chris is on the sidelines the whole time until suddenly, near the end, there is a shot of some shape blotting out the sun casting a shadow on the other three. The camera swings around to focus on this spinning sphere rising in midair until it unfurls to reveal it's Chris, who dives at the camera and turns the screen black as a transition to the next shot. It's Chris landing on the ice in skates striking a heroic yet graceful pose, and he takes off into the distance, spinning and jumping and doing all sorts of ice-related shenanigans. The final shot is the other three holding up judges' score signs: a 9.8 from the Nottinghamshire judge, a 9.5 from the West Yorkshire judge, and a 9.9 from the bounciest judge. Entertain yourselves; this is a good half-hour for me.
