Commentary Track

Listening In - by Andrew Ellard

28 June, 2002

Two series-worth of DVD commentaries have been committed to the digital can. On June the 5th, Chris Barrie, Craig Charles, Danny John-Jules and Norman Lovett gathered in London post-production haven Soho to relive series I. They then returned on June 11th to go over series II.

All went well, with Doug Naylor overseeing the chatter alongside BBC Worldwide DVD producer Ross McGinley. The cast were even given a burger-and-chips break to watch the Ireland/Saudi Arabia World Cup match on TV!

The cast commentary tracks are currently being tidied up in the edit ready for the double-disc release of series I in November. In the first episode alone, fans can look forward to discovering what the crew's powdered remains were made from and just who got to write on Chris Barrie's legs. Oh, and an unfortunately hilarious running gag regarding Mac McDonald's girth...

More DVD Details will follow soon...
