Summary

We went to the Spitting Image musical in the West End. It was worse than we'd ever imagined. It's the closest we've ever come to re-enacting the scary parts of Event Horizon.

And our most beloved member of the royal family, Peruvian cocaine dealer, Paddington Bear.

0:07.7

Yeah.

0:08.6

Well, it's the whole, I think the, um, the Paddington cocaine reveal is a wonderful

0:15.2

encapsulation of the way that they intend to, there's two ways this show intends to make

0:20.4

you laugh.

0:21.3

One is by saying privileged race, check your privilege,

0:27.2

as though that's just a nonsense set of words that make no sense.

0:30.4

The second way the show intends to make you laugh

1:15.8

Like, come on.

1:16.7

Think about the, you know, the logical implication.

1:18.8

But then you have to do like a high energy Prince Charles, which is like innovative and perhaps even fun.

1:23.6

I'm fucking bust.

1:25.2
