That
Mitchell and Webb Look in October
9
October 2007
One
of the more acclaimed TV comedy double acts in recent
years - the Observer went as far as describing them
as "Britain's funniest men" - David Mitchell
and Robert Webb 's success in Peep Show
was preceded by That Mitchell and Webb Look,
a BAFTA award winning sketch show that first introduced
the pair to the UK viewing public and achieved a
regular audience of 3 million viewers per show.
The more memorable characters and sketched include:
Numberwang, a manic but meaningless number-based
game show; The Adventures of Sir Digby Chicken
Caesar, the greatest campaigner for truth and
justice since Pete Doherty; The Anxious Nazis,
who begin to wonder if the 'death-head' insignia
on their caps might be sending out the wrong signals;
the tragically mismatched superhero partnership
of BMX Bandit and Angel Summoner; plus Snooker Commentators,
Big Talk, Chip and Pin and more...
To
coincide with their big screen debut in Magicians
and with the news that a second series of That
Mitchell and Webb Look is on the way for
2008, Contender Home Entertainment have announced
the UK DVD release of Series 1
for 29th October 2007 at the RRP of 19.99. Containing
all 7 episodes of the series, the DVD will also
contain the following special features:
- Unseen
sketches;
- 2
outtakes;
- A
32 minute 'making of' documentary.
