Chris Elliott is an under-appreciated comedic legend. Deadpan and odd AF, he is a true original.

Well... I'd really like to see that bit when Dave called the Russian embassy on two separate nights, and by the second call, the guy who answered the phone seemed genuinely scared and he said to Dave @%#$& you!. It was a hoot. It opened all the pores in my body. Very refreshing.
