Just a Load of Blooming Catchphrases.

It's very much like making love to a beautiful woman. You dim the lights, press record on the camera and get down to action.

Nice.

This scene was The One for me, plenty of others were great, to be fair, but this one was on a different level: John Actor as tough, uncompromising Inspector Monkfish in Monkfish

Re running the series on Gold at the moment.
i was a great fan of this programme when it was new but find it somehow dated and there are parts of it that drag on much too long, Butrus Butrus Garby, ttttttt etc
But Paul as the old bloke is really funny still.. Great.
Loved the one where he bought the parrot and the one where he's taking flowers to a lady friend. Nice

Rowley Birkin QC. Some of best monologues you'll ever see. Humour, pathos and fantastic acting.

Another big fan of Rowley Birkin QC here.

Also love this sketch where a guy in pub is trying to make sure a customer gets the right change:

I vaguely remember one where it became very serious, I think it was about the passing of a loved one or a fellow soldier dying in his arms, something like that? and it was so sad, Rowley was in bits.

All the monologues are one take. No camera cuts etc. That takes some doing. Certainly impressed Jonny Depp.

Smiler.
