@n2488 To be honest it's a very similar format to the Peep Show, they couldn't really go back and visit this now without being criticised of reusing material. And what could they do with it that they didn't in Peep?
Seeing as this clearly never saw the light of day until 2007, how on Earth did you manage to come across it? I'd kill for a higher quality version of the pilot. If they can release Bruiser on DVD, they can release this, dagnab it!
As much as i love Mitchell and Webb i really didn't think i was going to like this, but i think it's brilliant!. It's such a shame it never got made into a proper series.
Thus was wonderful. (beep) I'm so glad I found it. I think I'm falling in love w/ David Mitchell. But what the hell happens to his accent--it keeps changing.
And also like his namesake, Ray, the porn writer from That Mitchell and Webb Look. And also, thinking about it, a bit like Barry Crisp, the guy who sells very dangerous or dodgy attractions.
i like it but suppose they wont make more shame

The International Socialism changes it's name to the Socialist Workers Party for much the same reasons - people kept turning up asking:
"is this the NATIONAL socialism group?"
"...no - they're different and they meet on Wednesdays"

David Mitchells nasal delivery when hes playing Ray sounds far to much like a Dudley Moore parody
