probably one of my favourite big fat quiz episodes ever! richard and noel are always such a good team and they are so chaotic this episode. richards rant is probably in the top 5 bfq moments ever for me. aisling and rob are also another great pairing cause they are both so so funny. jonathan ross is peak 'sweet old man' when he's with adam buxton, they really are just two great guys trying their best
what truly started my Simon Pegg rabbit hole this year was the one time I was switching channels and put the remote down the moment I saw and recognized Hot Fuzz on Lotus Macau and took one good look at the hot shit that was Nicholas Angel
around the part where Tim Messenger got to talk to both him with the cuddly monkey and Danny Butterman in the cowboy getup some time before the church spire
flashed back to when I was age 12 and I wanted to watch it so bad but I was busy in school — they showed the “hedge is a hedge” part as a sneak peek on Cinemax at the time it was airing
For a bit of happy, I belatedly listened to Adam Buxton's interview with Paddy Considine. Such a delight. If you are a fan of Hot Fuzz or House of the Dragon there's some nice chat. But one of my favourite films is 24 Hour Party People, and Considine shares some fantastic behind the scenes stuff about filming in the Hacienda Club and scintillatingly spooky synchronicities. Great listen.
