1.Gavin And Stacey : Complete BBC Series 1 [2007] starring: Ruth Jones, James Corden, Mathew Horne, Joanna Page, Rob Brydon October 29, 2007

I have recently discovered modern British comedy, and I am a HUGE fan of comedies like Shameless, Phoenix Nights, Max and Paddy's road to nowhere, Extras and The office. This comedy was recommended to me based on my opinion on Shameless, which I think is the best TV-show ever. However, "Gavin and Stacey" doesn't even get close to any of the shows mentioned. To me, it seems "stiff", very "acted" and WAAY to sweet. The character Nessa is a bit funny, and rescues it from being a complete disaster, but in general I find the rest of the cast quite boring or even repulsive. (Couldn't stand the smiley doll Stacey.)I was very disappointed.

4.Mirrormask [2005] starring: Stephanie Leonidas, Dora Bryan, Gina McKee, Rob Brydon, Andy Hamilton directed by: Dave McKean June 05, 2006

I don't mind arty films if there's decent writing too..but this film was just producation design and creative CGI. Very original looking, but not enough to hold your attention past half an hour, which is when I gave up. I think art and film students would get something from it, but that's it. Disappointed.

5.A Cock And Bull Story [2006] starring: Steve Coogan, Rob Brydon, Keeley Hawes, Shirley Henderson, Gillian Anderson directed by: Michael Winterbottom September 10, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £19.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £4.98 You Save: £15.01 (75%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £2.48
A selection of familiar faces from British TV comedy led by Steve Cougan play fictional versions of themselves, making a movie from a famous novel with tedious results. Features a lot of rushing around talking garbage and screaming from a lady pretending to be pregnant. Worst film I've seen in a long time.

6.Oliver Twist (BBC) [2007] starring: Timothy Spall, Rob Brydon, Gregor Fisher, Edward Fox, Tom Hardy March 10, 2008

When I saw this advertised I was wondering whether to watch this but I'm glad that I did. I thought 'Monks' was a nasty piece of work. Timothy Spall wasn't exactly my idea of fagin. But overall well played by everyone.

Am I really the only member of the general public who can see Rob Brydon for what he really is? (i.e. the poor man's Steve Coogan - just as Keith Barrett is the poor man's Alan Partridge). I mean, come on, the man can’t even have his ideas - he has to copy! I mean sure, during a 30 minute episode of any show featuring Brydon I'll manage to force out a laugh or two (if I'm very lucky & feeling generous! - hence the second star), but basically he just isn’t funny. It’s a real shame that Steve Coogan is doing very little television these days, especially when he’s being replaced with non-entities like Rob Brydon. These are really sad, sorry days for British television when this tripe is considered the ... Read More:

8.Rob Brydon's Annually Retentive - Series 1 [2006] starring: Rob Brydon, Dave Gorman, Elton John, David Walliams, Russell Brand directed by: Paul Duddridge May 21, 2007

This is undoubtedly the best thing to ever come out of BBC 3. It solidifies Rob Brydon's reputation not only as a sharp standup, improvisor, impressionist and actor, but also as a great writer. After Peep Show, this is my favourite comedy on TV. It's witty, deadpan, and hits the nail on the head every time. You won't regret buying this.

One particular episode I had to watch in three different parts because it was so depressing. When you think you're low, this one shows you that there is still way to go

10.The Way We Live Now [2001] starring: David Suchet, Cillian Murphy, Matthew MacFadyen, Paloma Baeza, Shirley Henderson October 02, 2006

This production seems to have attracted low ratings from those who have read the book - I haven't and coming to it with an open mind I think it is brilliant. I originally watched when it was first broadcast, and have just rented it from Amazon. I enjoyed it so much the second time that I've ordered a copy. One reviewer criticised the acting - were we watching the same thing? David Suchet, Matthew McFadyen & Shirley Henderson in particular are outstanding. Rather than portraying Marie as an imbecile (as one review suggests) I saw Marie as a young woman of great spirit and strong will. I've also been a fan of Matthew McFadyen since first seeing him in this. In addition there were some lovely touches of humour that had me laughing aloud. Well done to all involved. PS the extra feature ... Read More:
