That's a pretty impressive line-up, no? And that's not even including radio work. Plus seemingly the only awful thing he's even written was Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased)

Is Whitehouse really 'full of it' or is this just another projection?
I guess if Johnny Depp calls you the greatest comic actor of the modern age then you'll have trouble keeping it together.

I think you've hit the nail on the head there. I actually quite liked "Happiness" but "Help" was just, "Oh look at me, look at all these accents I can do, amn't I great?" - well, no, because your Scottish accent was shite for one. Plus crap serious bits. Not funny enough.

I was gonna start a thread on how great Chris Langham's body of work is as well, but I thought better of it. for. obvious. reasons.

Tracer, what do you mean by small?Mean yes (altho I wouldn't say Spaced was particularly mean in any way).Easy? Maybe...they both seem very thoughtfully written and intricate tho.

Favourite Down the Line moment might be from the first series when Whitehouse's Scouse character comes on, says something like 'Alright Gary, I'm a Socialist...' and gets immediately cut off. 'What is the biggest house in France?' runs it close though.
