Just a warning. Content is fun but not suitable for innocents.

That's an absolute stitch! Where can we watch this Catherine Tate Show?

Thanks, Jim

Deirdre and DeWitt watched an old episode when they visited last year and still haven't fully recovered. The only way you'll see Catherine and colleagues is to seek out the many youtube clips - make sure you have plenty of spare time.

Must. Look. Away. Oh my. I followed the link to the Translator vid, too. My hand hurts from slapping the desk.

The shocked Spanish CEO is played by an actor called Freddie, usually cast as an someone from the Middle East. I worked with Freddie on a few episodes of the BBC drama Casualty. The last time I saw him was a few weeks ago playing Chess is a London Cafe shortly before being blown up by a suicide bomber, I doubt it ruined his day.

Good stuff! One of my guilty pleasures is the show "Keeping up Appearances". My wife doesn't get it.

<threadjack>Philip, a friend of mine was in an episode of Casualty, have never seen it - Michael Sharvell-Martin, who used to be on Benny Hill and Dave Allen, and a ton of others...he said something about spending most of the episode under a sheet Laugh

Michael played the part of a pub landlord in the Boxing Day edition about 8 years ago. The storyline was about a coach (bus) full of football supporters crashing into the pub. It was shot in the July of that year in St Phillip's, Bristol. How do I know this? I played the part of a TV reporter in the same episode. Piece of additional trivia. The man who was my TV cameraman was a stand-up comedian who made additional money by being a Film and TV Extra, his stage name is Glenn Fiddich.

lee is right, BBCA shows Catherine Tate shows from time to time. I was surprised when she played Dr. Who's travelling companion for a season.

I love BBC America's name.
That's all for now.

Whereas Fox News Kirkwall really doesn't work at all!

Not only did I watch Catherine Tate's show every week when it was on, I also bought the book of all the scripts. 'What am I like?' [that's one of my fave lines from her show].

C. Tate later did a credible job as Donna in Dr. Who as well, [though i could often see her comedy character personalities coming through from time to time]! Smile
