[radiopirate1]

terry from the thick of it and jamie from the office - blimey

[kakaze]

so...this was written by them or...what? Strange stuff. Kinda peep showy.

[MiserVII]

Am I the only person that thinks his falcon t-shirt looks incredibly like a penis?

[Whovian92]

@iridis radio 2

[BinnySkitch]

I doubt anyone caught this, but the music the robot starts at 5:44 to emphasise his sad story is actually the theme from Franco Zeffirelli's 1968 film Romeo and Juliet. :D

[gazereths1982]

"Fuck the state!"

[lobo2237]

The glasses David's wearing as Ray are fantastic.

[LAnonHubbard]

This is bizzare stuff, but funny!

[mindandsoulknowledge]

pause at 1:50 and look at davids t-shirt 8==D

[david552]

Is that a subtle "Denis Potter" reference at the beginning there?

[Unwardil]

'Romeo and Juliet is not a play about a really fabulous balcony'

[superiourcowies]

hahahahahhaaahha his teeshirt

[elflamingo42]

Lol. The funny thing is that really is what anti capitalist meetings are like. :-P

[adz71]

Wait. Is ray from that mitchell and webb look based on david in this? Same accent and that

[kimdom]

I like it, lol'd at the house name and the swastkia joke.

Definitely can see the evolution of their writing through the years though...

[miftin]

thank you so much for this - id been begging them to put it as an extra on the peep show dvds for ages.

anyone know where i can find the mitchell and webbb episode of Twisted Tales, screen in 2005, if im not mistaken it was the same characters as this.

[smurfieboo]

"thank you Joy" lol

[arabianpebbles]

beep

[gzr0]

his tshirt looks a bit funny from a distance

[sunshadow69]

lol i see what u mean

[komedycuts]

Correct. The TV pilot was made in 2001, the radio pilot (same premise and characters, different episode) was made in 2007.

[antondevey]

It is also fraking hilarious. You can get the CD off amazon, though it is quite expensive for 1/2 an hour.

[komedycuts]

The CD was £9, which I agree was too much for a single episode. Shame they didn't package the audio and video versions together.

Anyway, Amazon recently cut the price to a fiver, so I probably will go ahead and buy it.

[Flighn]

"Beep."

[SomecallmeJack]

I think what put them off was that the mock-tudor woodwork was in the shape of a swastika...

[daphne0]

You are my hero. Thank you!!!

[borogirlbella]

'Romeo and Juliet is not a play about a really cool balcony'...
