And Charlie Brooker, wrote Philomena Cunk, which is essentially Karl as a character

2025-03-10 19:27:53 +0000 UTCkarl has his own tv show

2025-03-09 21:19:31 +0000 UTCYou suddenly made me think of Aisling Bea and John Malkovich appearing on The Jonathan Ross Show. I put it on the panel show list, but even should it appear on a poll I doubt it will ever be chosen. It's very, very funny. I think I remember Jess seeing Aisling Bea briefly on something else and remarking how much she'd like to see more of her, although I can't think for the life of me what show that might have been, so I'm probably imagining it.

2025-03-09 04:37:27 +0000 UTCKarl’s plot is not that much different to ‘Being John Malkovich’

2025-03-09 00:17:48 +0000 UTCGlad I didn't find that tape of my mum's 🤣

2025-03-08 19:47:03 +0000 UTCRicky's laugh during the Australia bit 🤣🤣🤣

2025-03-08 19:25:24 +0000 UTCI had a friend that recorded his farts on a cassette. Both sides. Jesus. 🤣🙈

2025-03-08 19:08:53 +0000 UTCIt’s definitely Russell Brand that he went for a ‘face rub’ with

2025-03-08 17:59:15 +0000 UTCYears ago we were going through old cassette tapes to see what was on them and came across one with just a weird droning sound. Turned out my mum had recorded the hoover because the noise put me to sleep as a baby. Rather than hoover at night or like Jess says burn the hoover she just made a tape of it to stick on.
Jamie Macdonald
2025-03-08 14:53:42 +0000 UTCYou would both love Extras. Ricky, Steve and a famous actor in each episode playing an alternative version of themselves.

2025-03-08 10:19:26 +0000 UTCblack mirror actually copied some of these plots! if you’ve ever watched that
Chris Monaghan
2025-03-08 03:36:08 +0000 UTCsimilar in the movie 'Get Out'

2025-03-08 00:49:17 +0000 UTCSo glad this show is back!

2025-03-08 00:48:01 +0000 UTCI remember the name Clive Warren from the 70's/80's, I think he was on BBC Radio 1. The first time I watched this Karl said it I and immediately thought of him, me being of a certain age.

2025-03-08 00:14:08 +0000 UTCWayne Rooney sleeps with a hair dryer blowing in his face (on cold). As you know, Karl sometimes gets his facts wrong.
Neil
2025-03-07 22:50:36 +0000 UTCSteve and Ricky are both brilliant writers so I would imagine they may see the potential in Karls idea but writers meetings aren't funny. I think they both also tend to be quite factual or real in the things they've written (mostly) so his idea wasn't necessarily their style.
Brendan
2025-03-07 22:45:30 +0000 UTCSame. He said his friend made it years ago and posted it on FB and there is no link or full version apparently

2025-03-07 21:50:42 +0000 UTCThat was hilarious
CONALL MCLAUGHLIN
2025-03-07 20:22:12 +0000 UTCKarl's plot is similar to a movie called All of Me (1984) where Lily Tomlin's soul is transferred into Steven Martin's body. Great performance by Steve, funny movie
Sean Riley
2025-03-07 18:48:57 +0000 UTCMid 2000s Clive Owen was a painfully good looking man. Let her have it.
Ste Rawlings
2025-03-07 17:42:50 +0000 UTCRicky’s been with his partner Jane throughout all of these (and since the 80s), they’re still together now. Steve is famously less lucky in love, or was then, but I’m not sure these days. He did a whole series called Hello Ladies
Kieran B
2025-03-07 16:56:41 +0000 UTCThe rumour is that the person Karl goes camping with is Russell Brand The same with the Haunted Mansion/ Asylum story
Luke Gale9
2025-03-07 16:53:24 +0000 UTCDying to know the name of the intro/outro choon

2025-03-07 16:50:52 +0000 UTCEe died
Mattoid
2025-03-07 16:50:10 +0000 UTC...and then the idea became a Black Mirror episode.
Jon
2025-03-07 16:48:32 +0000 UTCThey did both write every line of the UK Office so they’re definitely decent writers - Steve especially who has tended to be overshadowed by Ricky a bit is probably the better of the two
Kieran B
2025-03-07 16:38:24 +0000 UTCThere's a film with Ricky called Ghost Town. It's kind of similar to Karl's film. Also, Wayne Rooney did the noise thing with a hair dryer recently and it set on fire.
Liam Tulley
2025-03-07 16:33:41 +0000 UTCBlack Museum(Black Mirror Episode) has similar adaptation of this Karl Project
Kartik Negi
2025-03-07 16:26:43 +0000 UTCGiven Karl’s background in radio he might have had the name in his head, but I don’t think most people would have known who that was when they saw this - myself included
Kieran B
2025-03-07 16:24:30 +0000 UTCKarl’s doing proper acting these days so if the film ever gets made then Clive Warren might have some competition for the lead.
Regular Viewer Bunty Hoven
2025-03-07 16:11:41 +0000 UTCI do wonder if the name had entered Karl's mind from both him and Clive working in the radio industry.

2025-03-07 16:03:34 +0000 UTCNot that Clive Warren! :-D
Dryfesands
2025-03-07 16:02:43 +0000 UTCRicky has been with his girlfriend Jane Fallon for over 40 years.
Dan G, Leicester
2025-03-07 16:02:05 +0000 UTCThere’s a certain part of a certain episode of the Ricky Gervais show I am desperate to see both of your reactions for
Joe Graham
2025-03-07 15:59:16 +0000 UTCI love that Karl’s movie idea is basically played out in the ‘Black Museum’ episode of Black Mirror
Dan
2025-03-07 15:53:54 +0000 UTCYes!
Kieran B
2025-03-07 15:50:49 +0000 UTChaha, Im so happy you did your preparation and read up on Clive Warren, lol.
