Daydream Believers (Mitchell & Webb pilot) 1 of 3

Part 2 is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGAaSXAdMw8

Comedy pilot about a science fiction writer and his slacker roommate, made in 2001 by David Mitchell and Robert Webb of "Peep Show".

I hadn't heard when I posted this, but Mitchell & Webb have made a pilot episode for a radio version of Daydream Believers, which was broadcast 5 May 2007 on BBC Radio 2. Perhaps a radio series will follow eventually?

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

The glasses David's wearing as Ray are fantastic.

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