    You definitely should dip into more Fast Show. There's so many great characters and sketches, that you can't go wrong.

    I think Depps appreciated here as he just "gets" the British sense of humour (he's quite chummy with Ricky Gervais as well I believe)

    The idea of The Fast Show was, so its creators Paul Whitehouse and Charlie Higson have said, to create a show where only catchphrases and punchlines were used but it grew beyond that, although most of the sketches did only last for 30 seconds or so, some only for 10 seconds! The first series was not the strongest but was still hilarious and, by the second series, many, many characters were well-known, their catchphrases used on the street (like "Suit you, Sir"). Once you know they were using this new comedy format of (mostly) very quick sketches, it's worth watching a whole 25 minute episode some time - you'll get it and enjoy it!

    You definitely need to watch some more Fast Show, the whole point of it was that there were a collection of tiny sketches, if you didn't like that one then there'd be another right after it with different characters. I think my favourites were Jesse and Jazz Club

      The Boomers absolutely have to check out "Sir Rowley Birkin". In my opinion it's one of Paul Whitehouse's finest and funniest characters. It doesn't matter how many times I've seen those monologues they always make me laugh. There's a good video on YT of all the "Sir Rowley Birkin" sketches edited together. I'd love to see them react to that!

    • @davidsmith7653
      @davidsmith7653 Před rokem +3

      There's an episode of the Fast Show where Sir Rowley is reminiscing about the lost love of his life many years before. They broke up because of his alcoholism. In my opinion it's the finest bit of acting I've ever seen and it brought me straight to tears and still does every time I watch it again. I can understand why Johnny thinks that Paul is a great actor. The pathos and regret Paul managed to convey in a couple of short minutes was extraordinary. Even just thinking about that scene after having not watched it for years makes me incredibly emotional. One of my current favourite programmes is Mortimer and Whitehouse Go Fishing which is just so feel-good and life affirming. It's ostensibly about angling but in my view it's more a love story about two great mates who adore each other.

    Johnny Depp said he was a huge fan of The Fast Show, which is why he agreed to come on and do a sketch when asked.
    Johnny Depp also described Paul Whitehouse as the greatest actor he's seen. Perhaps he meant as a character/comedy actor, but a hell a a compliment regardless.
    They would play lots of different characters in The fast show, and the characters were recurring in all the episodes. It was a sketch show, and as such didn't have a story or anything.

  • @philipocallaghan

    It gets its name from the idea that all the sketches will be short and quick but over the season they may tell a story. Johnny caught the show in his hotel room while filming in England asked for a dvd compilation and loved it so much that he asked Whitehouse if he could make a guest appearance, the rest is history.

    The Fast Show has similar characters each week and each week those characters get a little bit more mental. Harry Enfield likes to do the same so it's worth checking out a few clips of the same characters e.g. the American tourists (you've not seen the gay or peekaboo sketches yet). They're all good fun. Johnny likes the UK and Ireland because he can chill in a pub and not get hassled (his words not mine) :-)

    The Fast Show was amazing back in the 90's. Sketch comedy but very little preamble, pretty much right to the funny hence the name. Johnny Depp used to watch the show as he was married to Vanessa Paradis and lived most of the time in France where he could watch the show. Depp unironically called Paul Whitehouse one of the the greatest actors he had ever seen and became a massive fan. This sketch was from the last ever episode, and came about because he reached out to Whitehouse explaining how much he loved the show etc and asked if he could appear in the final episode. It blew my mind when it happened and it's still pretty mind blowing now. Which is nice.

    As far as I know Jonny Deep used to live in France with his ex-wife Vanessa Paradis, while living there he used to watch a lot of UK TV and became a huge Fast Show fan.

    This sketch happened during the time when Depp was living in France & was also making the movie Sleepy Hollow .

    The Fast Show was absolutely hilarious- sort of serial comedy- the same characters often repeating the same punch lines- but somehow getting funnier each time. It's a sketch show and you get to see Paul Whitehouse's comic genius a lot in it.
