Does anyone remember this late-night 1990s ITV comedy show? Basically Bob Mills would play videos of random episodes of other TV shows, and pause them and sort of do comedy routines based on the TV programme he was talking about. Sort of like Harry Hill, only, I think, much better (even though I do like HH's TV Burp). OK, very hard to describe, but it was a classic, honest... I remember it being frequently hilarious, without expecting it to be, the kind of thing you would discover by mistake! http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/guide/articles/i/inbedwithmedinne_7773815.shtml
*pats you on the head* sorry didn't live over here and thus have no clue. unfortunately the only BBC programs that travelled (until recently) across the ocean were Python, AbFab, Benny Hill, and Are You Being Served - that is, until we got Ground Force.
Yep, Bob Mills got there before Harry Hill and Charlie Brooker, it really was quite unique in its day!
It seems more like Brooker's than Hill's, more cosy, down to Earth and deadpan, much less zany. I'm not that much of a Harry Hill fan....
Ah, I love Harry Hill. Yes I see what you mean, I meant the technique of stopping things halfway through and deconstructing them, that's something I'd never seen done before Medinner.
