David | entered the channel
|
| 19:03:27 |
Pooka | Phew, nice to see some people at last
|
| 19:03:50 |
David | Been waiting hours have you? ;)
|
| 19:04:19 |
Pooka | Well, not really, only got home about half an hour ago, but nevertheless... :p
|
| 19:06:31 |
Myatt | Ahhh, you've all been waiting for me hey
|
| 19:06:42 |
Pooka | Yeah, of course!
|
| 19:07:09 |
Pooka | received the first series of "Secret Diary of a Call Girl" from LOVEFiLM today and is happy at that
|
| 19:07:58 |
David | I imagine the Matt Smith scene has now had a lot of hits on YouTube.
|
| 19:08:25 |
Pooka | There's a Matt Smith scene?
|
| 19:08:38 |
Myatt | Secret diary, now that was a naughty show
|
| 19:09:16 |
David | Yes, not sure if it's in S1, but he appears as one of Belle's clients.
|
| 19:10:33 |
Pooka | Well, I don't recall seeing him, but I've only seem S2 and most of S3 so far, so I'll keep an eye out for him.
|
| 19:10:41 |
Pooka | Matt Smith... ACE!
|
| 19:10:57 |
David | He also appeared with BP in Ruby In The Smoke.
|
| 19:12:11 |
Pooka | Ah, I never got to see that.
|
| 19:12:34 |
David | I haven't seen it either. But we all know his best is yet to come.
|
| 19:13:13 |
Myatt | I've done everything in the correct order this evening, ironing done this time but I've just got to stick some food on so I maybe a little quite for a bit.
|
| 19:14:11 |
Pooka | Oh, I don't know. I mean, could you beat "Geronimo!!"?
|
| 19:15:10 |
David | I could, but I like to be nice to Native Americans.
|
| 19:15:49 |
Pooka | That's true.
|
| 19:16:04 |
Pooka | Little Plum is, after all, your redskin chum, according to the Beano.

Myatt | Feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeb!
|
| 19:16:45 |
KaM | Greetings! From the upstairs part of the house!
|
| 19:16:58 |
Myatt | and down under
|
| 19:17:20 |
Myatt | straining my neck
|
| 19:17:37 |
Pooka | Knock on the ceiling!
|
| 19:17:58 |
David | Hehe, upstairs part. Hehe, down under. Hehe, str... you get the idea.
|
| 19:17:59 |
KaM | I won't hear. :)
|
| 19:18:06 |
Myatt | my neck is already tortouse like without doing this
|
| 19:18:27 |
KaM | I like that... as a Knightmare line
|
| 19:18:46 |
KaM | "We couldn't have made the slightest blindest bit of difference..."
|

Myatt | upstairs downstairs

Myatt | knightmaring free

| 19:19:39 |
Pooka | # Upside love you, downside miss you... #
|
| 19:20:26 |
KaM | Upside. Not my fav from Hey Ma, but I really like the album
|
| 19:20:31 |
Myatt | left side kiss you
|
| 19:20:50 |
Pooka | It's a great album. Upside is "our" song, but my favourite is Waterfall
|
| 19:20:55 |
Myatt | Cocopops turn the milk chocolaty
|
| 19:21:03 |
KaM | Semaphore for me.
|
| 19:21:18 |
KaM | I hope you're not going away...
|
| 19:21:25 |
Pooka | I remember crying the first time I saw them do that one life, except it was called Pure Beuaty back then.
|
| 19:22:25 |
KaM | I remember crying the first time I saw the clip of 'Protect Me' live. It was last January, during my graveyard last days in Geneva.
|
| 19:22:52 |
Pooka | Which clip was that? Is that the acoustic one from PTMY Live?
|
| 19:22:53 |
KaM | I was in the office, which the good Mr David has seen, at about 11pm. :)
|
| 19:23:47 |
KaM | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3u4NHzXUUU
|
| 19:24:41 |
Myatt | I always had the greatest hits in the car for long trips
|
| 19:24:46 |
Pooka | Yep, Manchester 2001, PTMY Live version.
|
| 19:25:02 |
Pooka | I played that at the first ever UG gig IIRC.
|
| 19:25:12 |
KaM | Perhaps one that slips under the radar too much?
|
| 19:25:19 |
Pooka | I keep planning to do it again.
|
| 19:25:24 |
KaM | But I like songs like that...
|
| 19:25:33 |
Pooka | I don't think so, since it's on a live album and DVD!
|
| 19:25:52 |
Pooka | I saw them do a full electro version of it actually, in 2007.
|
| 19:26:00 |
KaM | How many studio records / Greatest Hits appearance?
|
| 19:26:14 |
Pooka | Well, only once, to be fair.
|
| 19:26:56 |
KaM | Perhaps it's seen as a live song. Raw.
|
| 19:27:22 |
Pooka | We saw it on the set list and assumed it'd be the acoustic version, and Morti said, "I ho[e they do a really fact electro version of it." And they did!
|
| 19:27:22 |
Pooka | cracks open his bootlegs collection
|
| 19:27:31 |
Pooka | Well, it works really well in any format but it gets the audience going live as it can be slow or fast and it has very positve lyrics.
|
| 19:27:44 |
Pooka | They played it twice at Warrington 1991, recorded live as Seven Live.
|
| 19:27:59 |
KaM | :) I can't imagine it fast. Don't want to hear the fast version. :)
|
| 19:28:23 |
Pooka | It's not really fast, it's just full band and has a different rhythm. Faster, maybe.
|
| 19:29:23 |
Pooka | Saul uses his violin though, which is great for the song.
|
| 19:30:54 |
KaM | Young boys melt into men / And we'll start the process again
|
| 19:31:41 |
Myatt | Life force warning - Must have food brb
|
| 19:31:44 |
Pooka | That's a really early one!
|
| 19:31:53 |
Pooka | Folklore, yes?
|
| 19:32:45 |
KaM | I got into James in an ambient sense during undergrad days. It helped me concentrate on my Latin.
|
| 19:33:15 |
Pooka | Well, they do have ambient music if you look hard enough.
|
| 19:34:03 |
KaM | :) I wasn't looking for ambient music. I developed a niche for that later, but found I could work well to it. AvE and Erasure proved useful for English.
|
| 19:34:54 |
Pooka | All good bands imho.
|
| 19:36:49 |
Pooka | Hmmm, this recording of Waterfall is spoiled by the audience singing along, since everyone's in their own key.
|
| 19:37:11 |
Pooka | Me, specifically.
|
| 19:37:52 |
Pooka | I think I redeem myself by playing percussion later on in the gig.
|
| 19:43:02 |
Pooka | Although if Tim really is going to leave the instruments at the bottom of his feet...
|
| 19:47:24 |
David | Over the past couple of weeks, I've been watching Swiss Toni: the sitcom.
|
| 19:47:34 |
Myatt | I netter forget us in HMV in 2002 singing along to Sit Down
|
| 19:48:09 |
Pooka | Is the sitcom any good?
|
| 19:48:34 |
Pooka | I remember us singing Sit Down on rollercoasters before switching to the Phones4U adverts.
|
| 19:48:48 |
Myatt | We used Swiss Toni at Mobile Streams
|
| 19:49:20 |
David | I enjoyed it.
|
| 19:49:40 |
Myatt | It's been a while since I rollercoasterd with you Pooka, it was a blast!
|
| 19:49:58 |
Myatt | with your hair in my face, you're screams
|
| 19:50:17 |
David | If you look on YouTube, there's a ten minute compilation from the episode that guest-starred Tom Baker as a has-been director who creates an advert for Swiss.
|
| 19:50:30 |
Pooka | A compilation?
|
| 19:51:17 |
KaM | I'm interested to know in what way Swiss T was meant to be Swiss.
|
| 19:51:51 |
Pooka | Isn't that mentioned in one of his Fast Show episodes?
|
| 19:52:15 |
Myatt | He has a little David Jason look about the character
|
| 19:52:43 |
David | "I'm built like an Alp and ridged like a Toblerone."
|
| 19:53:08 |
Myatt | pussyclub clip
|
| 19:53:32 |
David | "I've even got a backstage pass."
|
| 19:55:45 |
David | It's been interesting interspersing Swiss Toni with Bellamy's People: same principal casts, five years apart.
|
| 19:58:15 |
Myatt | grind your beans
|
| 19:59:13 |
David | until they squeak
|
| 19:59:40 |
Myatt | Tom Baker needing a slash
|
| 20:00:15 |
KaM | Reading all this out of context is quality
|
| 20:00:37 |
David | More than a slash... and later in the episode, you hear it coming out!
|
| 20:00:57 |
Pooka | agrees with KaM!
|
| 20:01:18 |
David | It beats his needing-a-poo comment on Little Britain.
|
| 20:02:56 |
David | And then Swiss sends Paul in to clean the loo, telling him he'll need a fish knife. :D
|
| 20:03:51 |
KaM | The commentary will be as good as the scenes.
|
| 20:03:59 |
Myatt | This is class :) I never really seen Swiss Toni
|
| 20:04:14 |
Myatt | Swishi Toni

KaM | Wasn't it Charlie Higson who did the 'Season's Greetings' humping sketch in the Fast Show?
|
| 20:05:34 |
David | Yes, he was one half of the Fornicating Couple.
|
| 20:06:22 |
David | Dare I search for it on YouTube?
|
| 20:07:29 |
KaM | I was really surprised to see how many of the BBC comedy circuit appeared in Shakespeare in Love.
|
| 20:08:32 |
KaM | I saw it for the first time with all the new undergrads in my first week there, and kept wanting to shout out "I know him!!" ... for some reason.
|
| 20:10:56 |
David | According to IMDb, John Inman was in it. I don't remember that.
