This is a classic sketch referenced often in the Guernsey-Leep home. I love almost anything that comes off this show. It’s an English show called Goodness Gracious Me and if you have the chance you should check it out sometime!

Did you see the Peep Show???

One of my favorite English comedians is Bill Bailey.  I got to see him live in 2000 (cheers to Edmund for suggesting the outing for his birthday).  He was fab!  Anyway, he had a small part in Hot Fuzz, and he also starred in a series called Black Books.  He was also in Spaced which is another Simon Pegg-Nick Frost-Edgar Wright vehicle that I don’t think ever made it to the states.  However, if you liked Shaun on the Dead and Hot Fuzz, I highly recommend Spaced.
