You're 'Avin a Larf Intcha? · May 6, 10:19 PM
So the Missus and I have just started our Netflix wish list. For those of you outside the U.S, Netflix is a great service that lets you pay about twenty dollars a month and rent DVDs and then ship ‘em back when you’re done. They then send you DVDs that are next on your wish list. Genius.
I’m not the type of fella that will sit down and watch a movie. I get distracted way too easily, that’s why movies like Lord of the Rings don’t appeal to me in the slightest – they’re just way too long to hold my interest. I do particularly like a good comedy though and when I was back in Geordieland, I almost got to see Rik Mayall and Ade Edmondson of Young Ones and Bottom fame. At one point, I would argue that those two were the funniest comedy act in England.
I almost got to see them live in Newcastle, but work conspired against me instead. So, not having seen Mayall and Edmondson do what they do best in a long time, I got the Missus to type in ‘Bottom’ in Netflix, and much to my surprise, they have a DVD available!
“Aye lass, we’re gettin’ that one! Put it doon on the list.” For those of you who are unfamiliar with Bottom I leave you with a short clip. Enjoy…
