Monkey Dust: Clive

[jamesaellis]

Manhedas?

[carelesshx]

@cupofcustard it's Colonel Kurtz's Fried chicken

[Maracachucho]

Wow, she's really good at movie trivia.

[cmomofilm]

lovely head all day long!

[cupofcustard]

What the hell is CKFC?

[alexjaep]

anyone else think this is to realistic and grim for tv?

[Jarren202]

@alexjaep Not really, no.

But I suppose those who love Takeshi's Castle may find this a bit shit.

Goldfrapp - Lovely Head

[Stupidian151]

What is thw whistling song?

[MichaelChands]

@Stupidian151 Lovely Head, by Goldfrapp.

[kindahottish]

beautifully depressing

[ysfaljanabi]

The bleak city landscape, the Goldfrapp, the popular commerical sound bite, the buzzing girly-flat light, the monotony, -- brilliant. YSF

[shepja87]

"I can't tell you, but there's a small boy tied up in the boot of my car"

[SourMoth]

His wife certainly puts up with a lot.

[gothicphilosopher]

I'v been the anal gimp of a German businessman lol :-))

[TheRD92]

I like how in every opening scene they include a piece of happy, upbeat, top 10 pop song that clearly contrasts with the mundanity and bleakness of life in modern day Britain. I don't know which is more depressing.

[scamoosh]

@TheRD92 You should watch the 'Pretentious wankers' Monkey Dust clips

[Charlestonville]

dark and surrounded by subtle and not so subtle stabs at societal norms. i hate and love this.

[TroutMaskReplicaa]

I can't even describe the profound effects this show has upon the lonely workingless English male brought up under the guise of a 'free' labour government. Ahh shivers.

[TheMikertraceur]

Whats The Name Of The Whisteling Song?(the "First One")

[32000BTUGasGrill]

@TheMikertraceur Lovely Head by Goldfrapp

[JeremyMacGregor]

@TheMikertraceur Lovely Head by Goldfrapp

[mavisandbillybob]

Excellent! Check out 'Potato Smiles' !

[bluemoonrising26]

How can anyone say this is better than Katy Brand... Only joking, she's a fat, ugly, unfunny pig-faced bitch.

BRING BACK REAL COMEDY YOU BBC BASTARDS.

[faunflynn]

This is disturbingly like my life over the past few years. Weird.

Thanx for posting this, I missed it 1st time round.

It's sad the writer died.

Kudos.

[Jarren202]

His wife has the look in her eyes of a person who's long since died on the inside.

Which is nice, I suppose.

[bandan83]

This was when BBC3 was airing some really good shows,shame its all gone down the pan.

[adam3088]

I love monkey dust, yet at the same time hate watching it due to how depressed it makes me.

[bigkev1407]

clive ur fukin amazing

[TorchwoodUK]

Clive is such as masochist

[modemeyes]

Brilliant! I was a great fan of "Monkey Dust" when it was on TV. Liked the theme music to Clive and the bleak council estate. Great stuff!

[petacavanagh]

"I can't say why... But there's a small boy in my trunk" LOL

[bmxjoe100]

Respond to this video... haha hotel calafornia i love that song!

[petacavanagh]

@bmxjoe100 Did you type that on a PS3?

[bmxjoe100]

@petacavanagh yep i used a ps3 to write the last message, have u got ps3?

[user92126]

I know what's wrong with Clive, his wife feeds him the same thing for supper each night

[petacavanagh]

@user92126 Least that bitch stays in the kitchen all the time. All she needs to do now is learn to shut the fuck up, like a good little wife. LOL

[4evainter]

i love monkey dust- sick, wierd and wonderful!

[Videodeathtyl]

It looks not good as Tales From The Timepoop, but it´s still nice.

lol

[Autonova]

[GeeFunk752]

"ive been the anal gimp of a german buisnessman got it for me....ha ha ha...pure gold as usual. I love this show.

[wongns57]

humpty dumpty sat on the wall.

humpty dumpty had a great fall.

All the king's men,

all the king's horses,

couldn't put humpty dumpty back together again.

[xDoubleZer00x]

08:09 monkey dust monkey dust monkey dust is coming!

[brandtus]

i've been spit roasting a hooker with your dad

[funkycheeseful]

this is brilliant!

dark, clever, sharp and funny as fuck!!

[inthedarkesthole]

Sums up modern Britain quite nicely. Gotta love the black comedy of it.

[DRUMMERLORD95]

is this a compilation of clive moments?

[Jidochik]

russian translate is cooler)

[panzzarota]

i love clive its the reason i watch monkey dust!

[FallsHeavy1]

this is fantastic

[brownstone23]

"..spit roasting a hooker with your dad.."- classic...so dark,what a great show

[superfurryfox1]

Never found the show funny but always watched it because it generaaly is one of the smartest shows ever er.. shown.

[Scruffwhite]

Classic - Really miss Monkey Dust.

[QOTSAgerbils]

Hauntingly beautiful, and beautifully haunting.

[optimalwebsite]

I've just "got" the significance of the Tony Blaire references.... the way he lies (like Clive) and lies and lies.... while reality is very grim and bleak....

[QOTSAgerbils]

I think youre right, and take a look at Clive in profile as he closes the front door, his mouth seems very much like that of Blairs.

You and I and all of us together. The people are coming. We are coming. Labours coming, and the people are coming, and we will be envied! FUCK!

[gothicphilosopher]

@optimalwebsite very observative ! Blair is the most hypocritical "socialist" ever. Did nothing for the little man. And as you said, lies lies and more lies.

[Cainus44]

@gothicphilosopher No such thing as a truly socialist politician.

[ValiumandDolls]

@optimalwebsite Well then whats the significance to the pop music?

[cupofcustard]

@optimalwebsite Seems like nothing has changed!?

[cmomofilm]

@optimalwebsite Its that, and the nihilistic nature of Clive as a character. I love the loneliness monkey dust manages to portray, its like its written personally for everyone who has ever lived in a big city.

[AMarchant]

Haunted eyes.

[Oscar301]

This is so beautiful and bleak...

"I've been spit-roasting a hooker with your dad."

[Oscar301]

"I've been in the porn cinema wanking like a safari park chimp..."

[ihopeyouredone]

Anyone know the name of the whistling track??

[amvhellboy]

It's Goldfrapp 'lovely head'

[MCpapalop2]

HAHA I LOVED THIS PROGRAMME

[brhodes0]

I love the little background touches in the Clive sketches - The multiple Tony Blairs spouting meaningless soundbite bullshit, the horrible chicken shop (check out the badgas website!!) the fact that he goes past some brightly lit windows where people are having a much nicer time than he is, and the way his head and shoulders just drop as he closes the door of his flat.

[benf199105]

I seriously remember one of these episodes where he said he'd been trying to fill a bath with jizz. Was it a pilot or something?

[thedancingking]

Its the hundred years war excuse, series 2 episodeee... 3 or 4, 4 i think

[ADeformedCat]

9:41 man I think we have all been there.

[Vrael1022]

9:41 we've all bin there... dont deny it.

[alexmiddleton4]

God this is so depressing and brilliant, I wish Monkey Dust was still on telly. I miss this so much.

[drakason]

Frankenstein will want your mind... Your lovely head.....

[frameygeek]

How many more times are people going ask what the bloody tune is? Read the thread you halfwits.

[JarmezCoolio]

all he eats is bangers and mash LOL

[listy77]

And yet you took time out of your busy schedule to comment, Thanks for that...

[Shanemicpre]

who said my schedule was busy?

[Hendar23]

Yeah, that's pretty much it. MD is suicidally depressing sometimes. Thats our British idea of entertainment :)

[broojenstein]

I dunno how much of Monkey Dust you've seen but it's a clip show, and this video is just all his clips stuck together. Every episode he'd go home and his wife would ask why he was so late; then he'd come up with some bullshit excuse which she would see right through. The punch line is him telling her the truth about what he's actually been doing.

[Vrael1022]

he isnt a sad british citizen... he is just a normal britich citizen, you know the type... the type that like to spitroast hookers with their wife's dad, or being an ainal gimp ect... all in good fun you know;-)

[mrt0310]

All 'Monkey Dust' sketches with Clive edited into one video. Now go watch Monkey Dust starting from season 1 episode 1. All available right here on youtube. (Search playlists)

[romanc3]

ha ha clive just tells his wife the hotel california lyrics classic, nearly as bad as the mighty boosh "i was late for work because i was walking down the road and a toad stole my shoes"

[stevensane1986]

except Monkey Dust is about 1092897387127673682972439% superior to the Mighty Boosh.

[BigVizCaseClosed]

Mighty Boosh is shit.

[stevensane1986]

Very true. I liked it for a little while. But that was 2005. Before the NME got a hold of it and beat that dead horse deader.

[0w3n69]

Clive Pringle... you are amazing!

but i think the hero here in Mrs pringle...shes your typical British wife~! haha

[plevyman]

And that will be the abiding memory of the Blair years...

[Hembane]

Some of the best, surreal satire of the UK this decade. Makes me want to emigrate...

[jesusofsuburbian6]

it really deppresed me.  I guess we are scumbags,

[etocadet]

yeah but we're proud of it

[daftpunknineone]

what is the tune played whilst clive is walking home?

[beefychew]

[SoulIsTheGoal]

lovely head by goldfrapp

[amber135456]

[JamesWaton]

British humour is better than any other

[cmomofilm]

[MardyBum1981]

Is blair saying monkey dust is coming!!! lol

[JamesWaton]

No he's saying my arse is coming, what do you think?

[ninjayourepix]

I've been spit-roasting a hooker with your dad =[

[cmomofilm]

Thats my fave one, I had to explain what spit roasting was to my girlfriend coz i quoted it! lol.

[gavindaysaccount]

The Tony Blair intros and music clip while he walks are better than the stories.

[beefychew]

haha, i've never heard that said before

[wisteela]

Classic.

[VigorBalloon]

CLAM EVRUH MOWNTIN HAYAH.

[EVERTONIC]

this whistln is tales of the unexpected, slowed down in minor key

[MickyStarr]

Sorry, but the whistling is not Tales of the unexpected. It's Goldfrapp - Lovely Head. YouTube it...

[youwayouwa]

fuckin aye, and a sick ass goldfrapp tune at that, tales of the unexpected bollocks

[rwtig]

no need to apologise

[RadioactiveBlood08]

[adapper]

[HJKHJHJHGLJK]

[nicnacblack]

[jinkycfc]

[lewisbell]

Lovely Head - Goldfrapp

[rjg1511]

wers the 1 were he said he was getn tag fuckd in the pub bogs? classis show !

[DeathCHR]

This Goldfrapp tune was on an "instore radio" recently PMSL thinking of this....

[itsconnorstime]

[willie948]

colonol kurtz fried chicken

[shiny06]

CKFC - The Horror. The Horror.

Brilliant!

[tookieboy73]

the show was fantastic , funny and just a bit wrong but it made you think

[Barnezy91]

i didn't have to one where he was away for years and he sed he was filling a bath with his cum

[ballantyne5000]

the creator died sadly

[blujufirst]

Your Fucking Joking? They didnt, did they?

[ballantyne5000]

he did

i think that was one of the reasons they didnt release the dvds, out of respect or something?

correct me if im wrong

well that and the terrorists and copyright issues

[Barnezy91]

when i first watched monkey dust i was a bit too toung to understand some of the jokes, but now i think it is the best thing ever, why is it no longer on?

[Bamngbola]

fuckin brilliant

[xBlackcough]

I can never listen to the song playing (the whistling) without immediately thinking Monkey Dust. Gotta love the series. <3

[crazyclive]

Nobody has yet asked who's providing the voices in these sketches. I'd make a stab at Kate Robbins voicing Clive's wife. I know it wasn't me as Clive, and I'm much dirtier than he is!! *lol*

[DeathCHR]

It was Kate Robbins

[judewells1]

what is the whistling song that plays as clive trudges home, i thought it was bernard herman?

[judewells1]

sorry i only just read 2 comments below more fool me.

[mrhalfcircle]

Goldfrapp - Lovely Head.

[nakedenglishman]

i had to fellate a monkey too when i lost abet how ironic

[TheSophist2007]

that depressing music totally represents how built up areas fell like, grey and depressing

[lovelyangie5]

I quite liked this when it was on...but i look back at it now and it seems so depressing. (obviously)

[plaindane]

What is the music as Clive is walking home?
