Ahh, Jim Robinson, one of the great characters in the West's dramatic art. A man who, having served in 'Nam (fathering a child there too), became a simple car mechanic who amazingly invented a radical new fuel injection system. Having patented this he became a noted geologist whilst finding time to help his mother in…

Ahh, if I had realised 'I know you are but what am I?' was an acceptable retort after the age of 11 I'd have just used that…

No, you can still be clinically obese, unable to handle your drink, virtually indistinguishable from the rest of the Great Apes based on IQ tests and say 'Howdy Y'all!' and you'll still enjoy it.

The Jacobi one sees Derek go off down the tedious rabbit hole of the Oxfordian Theory. Completely ruined the whole thing.

James I (and VIth of Scotland)

Great little show this. I'm generally ambivalent about Jack Whitehall but I think he's great in this and, like the show itself, gets better throughout the second series.

Yeah, that's why I can't stand Hamlet. I mean, he could just spend his days banging Ophelia, eating bacon and pastries and piss about 'til he becomes King and he throws it all away. What a twat!
