The Cottage
00:33:21
About
It’s the new year, so it’s time get some fresh air and take a rejuvenating break in our Countrycide season. First up is 2008’s “The Cottage”, a film in which Pinhead has joined the local neighbourhood watch; Gollum proves to be related to a large number of the inhabitants of Royston Vasey; and Spudgun is a pain in the arse who fucks up everything he touches. The surprise follow up to director Paul Andrew Williams’ gritty debut “London To Brighton”, “The Cottage” came out during that brief flowering of British comedy horror that followed in the wake of “Shaun of the Dead”, and, like a lot of films from that period, appears to have been unjustly forgotten. It starts up as hilarious crime caper with a small group of well realised and brilliantly portrayed characters, only to perform a mid-point rug pull as that story suddenly crashes headlong into a slasher film. Watch (or re-watch) to avoid spoilers and join us.

Lee Good evening. Happy New Year. We are, welcome to Horror. I'm Lee.
Chris I'm Chris.
Adam I'm Adam.
Adam I think that sums up, sums up the start of this year.
Lee Yeah, it is 2024, let's hope it's less wank than the previous years have been in recent memory.
Adam Or if you're going to get worse, that's it. It's just armageddon.
Chris Like it proper worse. Yeah, don't mess around.
Adam Stop shilly-shallying.
Lee Stop talking with me.
Adam Stop talking with me.
Lee so, but on that note, I feel we are off to a good start.
Chris
Lee Spoiler alert. This evening we are discussing the 2008 movie The Cottage. There are a lot of films with this title so to be very clear this is the Andy Serkis and Reece Shearsmith.
Chris Oh, phew.
Lee That should I don't understand. This is one of those films I'd never heard of. I heard somebody cover it on another podcast and I was like, that sounds interesting.
Lee And I've never hardly ever, apart from people in our circle whom we all watched it together, nobody ever talks about this film and it's outstanding.
Adam It's, because I think I was only aware of it because I'd heard there was a film with Reece Shearsmith in it.
Adam But other than that, never investigated it. I don't think was given the opportunity almost. I don't I don't really remember it being out at the cinema.
Lee No.
Chris
Adam But yeah, sort of like just watching it around yours all of a sudden it's like, yeah, why the fuck wasn't this out, you know, or isn't this a record?
Lee Why are they not going nuts over it?
Chris Why aren't there not not more noise, yeah.
Adam Yeah.
Lee yes, so before we, before Adam and I launch into our over-excitedness about this movie. Chris, what did you make of your first viewing of The Cottage?
Chris You know, I'm going to say, I don't remember if you mentioned this before, so you've obviously carried on the the trend of not talking about it. This is the film that must not be mentioned until someone just sees it and they're like, what?
Adam Good point actually, yeah.
Chris So that, I mean, that it was a great romping start to this 2024, I would say, and it lured me in as I'm sure it was intended to do. I did not quite see the.
Chris I did not see it ramping up to the levels that it hit.
Chris Even after it, it's a strong start and it's very entertaining and it's funny, but yeah, and I and I expected it but not quite where it got on to. So, I mean, am I wrong to call it the British Chainsaw Chuckler where Inside Number Nine meets Texas Horror?
Lee That is perfect. That should that is definitely a wonderful alternative title.
Chris Yeah. Like they they hit all the right marks and kept it absolutely British, silly humor, like all the way through, but with some seriously hard-hitting bits.
Lee The gore in it is he's comically over the top but still done fantastic.
Chris Done done well, yeah, yeah.
Adam Yeah, there's no shitting about with them. They're proper. They they're awesome. Oh. Yeah. Proper those moments, you know.
Lee Yeah.
Adam But I because when I I yeah, I genuinely think for some reason this film just when you watch it, you love it and then you just don't seem to pass that on.
Chris Yeah.
Lee I'm the I've seen this film maybe a dozen times but every time within a week of seeing it, I forget it exists until something triggers it and then I go and I go back and do it again and every time I just I don't know why.
Chris I wonder, is it something to do with it's not a big story. It is a bit like a an experience piece. So is it that you yeah, as time goes on, you just forget all of the moments of of, you know, excellence that appear throughout.
Adam I think that's cuz weirdly enough, I think this is possibly only my second viewing of it.
Lee Oh, really?
Adam I watched it late.
Chris Wait and so what year?
Chris What year did you say it was?
Lee 2008.
Adam 2008. Yeah.
Chris That's a little while ago now.
Adam Yeah, so I would have seen it at Lee's. And then possibly maybe it was on one night and I caught half of it or something like that because I was like, oh, I'll watch that. That's good, you know, or whatever like that.
Adam And then literally this is the so it's either the second or third time that every time that I've seen it.
Adam But oddly enough, it comes back. Those bits like the bits when you're like, shit, yeah, like you pissed yourself, but you're like, yeah, I really fuck that caught me last time.
Lee Yeah.
Adam Maybe that's maybe that's the key to it is that there is you need to leave it. It's not necessarily a quotable film.
Chris I actually I wrote down one quote. Why are the hands in the freezer?
Chris And it's just because it's that kind of thing, yeah, like they're not ground-breaking but when they happen during the film, it's like, yeah, that just works in that moment. You've just changed the film enough.
Chris And especially because it happens to each of them. I think they're as I was watching it, I was thinking, they're all failing all of them, even though they're different characters.
Chris Some are strong. Andy Serkis, I mean, he he plays a really good part. Like he's pretty serious.
Chris And he's he's trying to do his best, but with a couple of very inept. Or I guess I guess Reece Shearsmith and Peter, he's he's kind of normal. I mean, he is he is inept, but not quite to the level of who's the other? Andrew.
Adam Andrew.
Chris Andrew, yeah, right. So he he's really inept and fails miserably.
Chris Peter seems like he might do all right occasionally and then it just goes terribly wrong.
Chris And David is obviously, he's he's he's tough, you know. You wouldn't really want to mess with him probably, but he's still fails miserably. So yeah, it's like even being overconfident, that that can only take you so far. Probably only a little bit further than the inept guy who's also going to end up terribly.
Lee Who I I forgot how heavily he's in like the comic strip and stuff. So I'd forgotten what like a a, you know, a staple of British comedy he is. He's one of those people who just he he kind of goes under the radar and then every time he see him, you go, I've never seen him do a bad performance. Like he always totally smashes it every time.
Adam I must confess if I see him anything, I'm just immediately Spudgun.
Lee Yeah.
Adam That's just in my head is Rich out in that.
Adam If if Christopher Ryan had walked in at that point, I the whole scene would have played out.
Adam But yes,
Adam it's Stephen O'Donnell.
Adam And yeah, like you say, he's in like he's Spudgun in Bottom. He's in loads of the comic strips. He's in he's he's one of the angels in the video for the Eurythmics There Must Be An Angel.
Lee Oh, really?
Adam Yeah, there's a lot of like sort of cherubs and one of them weirdly enough, I did spot him.
Adam I remember seeing him, yeah.
Chris I expect nothing less of you, Adam.
Adam Thank you. Thank you.
Lee Sitting up late at night watching your music videos on YouTube.
Adam Yeah, and he was in yeah, he's in 12 comic strips.
Lee Yeah.
Adam So he's in, you know, he's he's in a lot and sort of so him being in it, I like the fact that it's like it links the sort of late 80s comedy scene with the late 90s comedy scene because you got Reece Shearsmith in there. And obviously like League of Gentlemen was like 98, I think and, you know, and the comic strip was sort of like early 80s and stuff like that, but it's almost like you get those two generations there. Both of whom act it's really strange that everything in this, everyone works as a double act.
Lee Yeah.
Chris
Adam So when obviously the brothers when it's Andy Serkis and Reece Shearsmith that works perfectly as a double act but also he has a double act relationship with Andrew.
Lee Yeah.
Chris Yeah.
Adam You know, like when he's sitting there and he's going, I didn't just do it for the money and he's like, everything you've ever done in your life, you've fucked up. You've shut up or whatever it is.
Adam Actually, that said, there is one line in this that is the quote of this film but is also the quote that could never be used on a movie poster or on a t-shirt or something like that. And that floors me every single time I've watched this is just that build-up as Andy Serkis is going off to go to use the payphone in the village.
Adam And he's like, I go at them both. He's stormed out. And then he has to come back in, get his keys off him and just walks off and it's that.
Adam Block me in you.
Chris Yeah.
Lee It's it's outstanding but the the thing that gets me every time and it it still does. And it's I think if anything, it's what would have put me off of watching this, if I'm being absolutely honest, is Jennifer Ellison. Like if someone had said, oh, there's a new comedy, there's a new horror comedy out, it's got Jennifer Ellison in it. To me at the time in the sort of early two, I was like, well, that's a mark in the negative. Her comedy timing in this is so perfect. It gets I've seen this as I say, probably eight, ten times and every time I forget how outstanding she is in this film.
Chris She's amazing.
Adam Yeah, I again, because I mean, really.
Chris And as a double act there as well, like Adam was saying.
Adam Yeah, when she's totally with Reese.
Chris Yeah.
Adam Her and Reese is fucking brilliant, especially because that that sort of weird turnaround of she's kidnapped him.
Chris Yeah.
Adam You know, cuz there's a lovely thing about this film that it it's like you get this really nice absurd underworld comedy. Like a kidnap plot of a gangland boss's daughter and sort of stuff like that, which is quite sort of of its time, you know, sort of like heist movies and sort of cool gangster stuff and things like that.
Adam And then it's weirdly enough it happens to take place across the road from England's version of Camp Crystal Lake.
Lee Yeah.
Adam And the fact that it can just sort of like trip over itself and stumble into that film.
Adam And it's really good because it doesn't change anything that's happening within the characters from the first half.
Chris
Adam Is there now like, shit, we're in this utterly this utterly changed environment. We've got all this other shit still going on. But now this is really sort of just.
Chris It's it's taken priority.
Adam Yes, it's ripped the rug out, you know.
Lee But it's very much a film of two halves and I'm sure the first few times I saw it, I kind of forgot that. I remembered the funny stuff in the house. And then I kind of forgot how mental it gets at the end when they end up in the farm.
Lee yeah, and it just it it it's it's it's strange because you kind of.
Lee You's like, well, how can you forget the strange, you know, deranged farmer killer?
Lee But actually, all I remember is Jennifer Ellison's hilarious lines and, you know, Andrew Serkis.
Lee Getting so frustrated and losing his shit in such a comical way. I kind of that's what I gravitate to in my mind when I think about it and I forget about the fact it's basically Friday the 13th.
Adam Yeah. It's like they they stumble into like part three of a ongoing like sort of slasher film series.
Adam And it's yeah, you know, when it's sort of like it's got fully bedded in and it's the guy who plays the classic version of the farmer.
Adam Is is in that what is the first film he did. Everyone agrees it's the best one, you know.
Adam And yeah, it's but yeah, going back to Jennifer Ellison, obviously, I mean, she was in Brookside and basically was sort of in a lot of like lads magazines and stuff like that. And oh my God, she's fucking great in this.
Lee And that's the thing. If it's the fact that she was in a show I was well everybody, I think like either you were a Brookside fan or you hated it more than anything.
Lee So the fact that she's in it, I'd have gone,
Lee no, I'm not I'm not watching it. I'm not. But yeah, you're right.
Lee She's absolutely perfect.
Adam Also soap star kind of always gives off that vibe.
Lee Yeah.
Adam You know, you see something and it's like, what they're going to try and do proper acting. It's like, they have been doing acting regularly like,
Lee Yeah.
Adam you know, when you actually think about it's like, oh yeah, they've been regularly acting as a steady wage for about three years.
Lee For about four five hours on five hours a week on TV. That's pretty heavy going. Yeah. But yeah, you're right. They're sorry, you're right.
Lee It's not so much Brookside. It's yeah, all soap actors would automatically put my heckles up and I'd be like, oh no, I don't I don't think I need to see this but.
Chris I always thought the the the other way around with them, Craig Charles as Lister going into did you go into Emmerdale?
Adam Corry, Coronation Street.
Chris Coronation Street. Oh, okay. I'm I'm terrible at soaps.
Chris But but yeah, and I always thought if he'd gone the other way around, would that have put me off Red Dwarf?
Chris Like, and yet that would have been such a miss to have said, I'm not going to watch that because it's from Coronation Street and yeah.
Adam Well, as they said the first time first time around with Red Dwarf, as they said, the weirdest thing was is that the setup was we've got who's starring in it? A poet, an impressionist and a dancer.
Adam And a stand-up comedian. It was like, there's not an actor in this. Or if you like.
Lee But yeah, so.
Adam But I I loved the fact that her character is is from the off utterly in fucking control of the situation.
Chris Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Lee That's precisely what I was about to say. You see her unconscious in the back of the car and you're like, oh my God, that poor girl.
Lee And as soon as she wakes up, despite the fact she's tied to a bed and cannot move, she is in control from moment one.
Chris I'll tell you what, you know what made me think of if somebody did that to Jennifer, it'd be like, yeah, you're going to regret that.
Chris It's not going to go well for you.
Adam Yeah. But it's just and also she's just she's the weirdest thing is, she's very good at looking menacing with a fucking gad off.
Chris Even at that.
Adam And she's just sitting there and it's like she she's just like, it's it's a look that you only see on like caged animals.
Adam You know, it's like he's like and proper sort of like, when I get free, I'm going to fucking kill you.
Adam It's yeah, it's it's a and also it's the right side of comedic as well.
Chris
Adam You know, and it's yeah, it's it's just a very.
Adam It's a very strange film in that way, even though it's actually a fairly easy film to enjoy.
Adam You know, it's not a complex plot.
Lee No. Very many people in it either.
Adam You say, the people who are there, they they do they all bounce off of each other fantastically, like everyone's on the same page with exactly what they're trying to achieve and the level of seriousness and comedy.
Adam yeah, and it's just a perfectly put together little set.
Adam It's it just works so well.
Chris And I even I got slightly I was like, oh, is it going to get too dark?
Chris And then they just kept that that balance perfect all the way through right to the end when he goes down the steps and you're like.
Chris You know, it's almost gone right for him.
Chris What's going to happen next?
Adam Does that mean that you have not seen the end of credit sequence thing.
Chris Oh, no.
Adam Where.
Adam And I'll be honest.
Adam For no fucking reason, Steven Berkoff turns up to not utter a single line.
Adam And then sort of have the farmer run at him.
Adam Like he's basically he's meant to be the gangland dad turns up at what is it? Arnie?
Lee Yeah.
Adam Turns up at at the at the farm, gets out the car, walks up, they do a big panning shot go, yes, we've got Steven Berkoff to do our film. Doesn't say a word, farmer runs out and then it comes up the end question mark.
Chris Okay. Well, I've got this to look forward to then.
Adam Yeah.
Lee There's a cameo Doug Bradley.
Adam Yes.
Lee Who gets a much better cameo than Steven Berkoff in that he gets to speak.
Adam And and he gets it.
Lee Yeah.
Adam You can see he gets the tone.
Adam You know, he's like sort of like, no, this is going to be a bit arch.
Adam And there are going to be and probably three quarters of this audience should be shouting, fucking pin it.
Lee Yeah, I I just this is one of the again, this is another one of those films that I just feel we should be screaming from the rooftops because a bit like the film we're going to cover on our next episode as well.
Lee They're they're they're perfect companion pieces. They're so well put together. They're so balanced between the horror and the comedy and.
Lee And again, people again, like with Jennifer Ellison, people in them who you wouldn't necessarily go, oh, a horror film with them in it. I definitely need to put that on my watch list.
Lee But if you don't, you're really missing it. And I think a lot of people don't and and I don't know why this film. Yeah, I still don't know why this film went as unsung as it did really.
Adam I went and had a look back cuz there wasn't really much online like, you know, and I'm talking basics, like there wasn't a big trivia section on IMDB or anything like that. And I did sort of but one of the things was is that I saw I went and found some old interviews with the director Paul Andrew Williams from around the time. And all they all they keep mentioning is Severance and Shaun of the Dead.
Lee And I think that it's.
Adam Coming out in that same sort of thing. It's like, yeah, it's a good film. It's not Shaun of the Dead.
Lee No.
Adam You know.
Adam It's it's a different thing. I'm not saying that it has to be Shaun of the Dead.
Chris I reckon it may it make a decent double bill.
Adam Oh, exactly this is exactly it.
Adam And but it was sort of with that coming up, I was like, that's probably why it's just been outshown.
Lee Yeah.
Chris I thought you said though that whether it deserved it or not, we know.
Chris Yeah, when you've got something as good as Shawn of the Dead that comes out,
Chris yeah, you kind of other things will suffer unfairly, really.
Adam Yeah.
Adam And they sort of and both this this and film we'd be doing next Severance.
Chris Severance, yeah.
Adam Same same sort of time, same same sort of thing. I think that Shaun of the Dead is the one that's resonated or sort of like has maintained a profile.
Chris And No, you have mentioned Severance I think at least once, maybe a few times.
Chris But I still don't know anything about it.
Adam And again, it's not one that is I think people liked it at the time, but it just never seemed to get any traction beyond that.
Adam I mean, Paul Andrew Williams who directed The Cottage, I was like, right, I don't know anything else he's done and he did but the film he did before this he he wrote The Cottage to be his first film. He like started off wanted to be an actor then he decided to be a director.
Adam And he wrote The Cottage because it was like, right, this is a simple film to make, you know, one location.
Adam very few characters, etcetera, etcetera.
Adam And he couldn't get that made.
Adam And in the meantime, he wrote over a weekend, he wrote London to Brighton, which is the film he went on to make.
Adam Now, London to Brighton is like a proper.
Chris That's a bike ride, isn't it?
Adam Yes, but it's also a very heavy brilliant film.
Adam I mean, it's a great fucking film, but he's like, it's but it's Ken Loach sort of great.
Adam In so much as oh, Christ. Oh, Jesus Christ.
Adam You know, it's I like that in a movie. I don't like that every night in a fucking movie.
Adam But.
Adam It's brilliant.
Adam Just just to give you an idea of how bleak it is, the dad's from fucking This is England is in it.
Adam And he only turns up for the for terrible things.
Adam So.
Adam but yeah, so he did London to Brighton and then everyone was like, he won loads of awards for it.
Adam And everyone was like, oh, this this new director's out.
Adam He followed it up with The Cottage.
Lee Oh.
Adam And he was and he was basically like, no, fuck off. You're not putting me, you know, you've said yes.
Adam He's he's like, everyone kept saying, I was like Ken Loach, I watched half of Kes for the first time yesterday.
Adam It was like, you know, he's like, yeah, I get what they mean, but he'd sort of written London and Brighton almost in this like vacuum.
Adam and created this thing.
Adam But he doesn't like you said, he doesn't want to just do that.
Adam It's not,
Adam you know, and which is fantastic.
Adam So it's like it's not going to be he wants to do, you know.
Adam You just want to do horror or you just want to do social realism or you, you know, whatever it is.
Adam
Adam But yeah, so the other films he's done, he did the documentary Murdered for Being Different, our murder by my boyfriend.
Adam Cherry Tree Lane, which is a bit bloody hard going.
Adam from what I gather.
Adam I've not can't confess I've seen it, but
Adam some episodes of Broadchurch and a film that I'd heard a lot about recently called Bull, which is like a sort of gangland revenge thing, with Neil Maskell in it.
Lee Okay.
Adam But yeah, so I think The Cottage is kind of like his outlier of I mean, that's not to say there aren't moments of humor in any of his films.
Adam But I think The Cottage was his you know, and the way he talks about it is it was like, yeah, I wanted to do this I wanted to do this film and also it's like my tribute to 80s slashers.
Adam You know, in so much as it's like, yeah, you have to have, you know, these archetypes have to go in there.
Adam This moment has to happen as it were.
Adam But,
Adam you know.
Adam I think.
Lee It's it's a surprise 80s slasher, which is what I love about it because you do.
Lee You kind of you again, it's another one of those films we've had him a few times.
Lee Where we know it's a horror film because we're sitting down to watch it for a horror podcast, but you get wrapped up in the comedy of the comedy of the comedy.
Lee And it goes on for like 40 minutes and then all of a sudden you go, oh shit, yeah, no, this is a horror film.
Lee There does have to be some, you know.
Lee Some actual, you know, a slasher or whatever.
Lee
Adam Yeah.
Lee But yeah, like you get so comfortable and so into it.
Lee that your mind just forgets where you're inevitably going to end up, which is excellent, isn't it?
Adam Maybe and maybe that's another thing as well is it's just that that sort of switch in the middle.
Adam That's that sort of false start almost. It's not a false start, you know, but is that another reason why it's sort of like people weren't as.
Adam into it or you know, or you know, it didn't get because I mean, the.
Adam The one thing I mean sort of like yeah, when I I think, what was the sorry, I've just completely lost it there.
Adam Talk about themselves, get some magazines or whatever like that.
Adam I had a black.
Chris First day back. We're doing well.
Adam Yeah, it's well, you know, I'd I'd managed to ramble for that's it. There we go. I found it.
Adam It was quote. It was written down, which I got from the direct.
Adam like from a quote of by the director was, it's a film to watch with your mates on a Friday night.
Adam Which is.
Chris But.
Adam But also what was it? It's that's that's the term he used when he was talking about 80s movies.
Adam He said, that but then there are some films that are like R-rated Scooby-Doo episodes.
Adam That's what I've tried to make.
Adam And.
Adam You know, I I was like, yeah, I I get I totally get that.
Adam they definitely have that sort of feeling.
Adam Oh, the.
Adam And another thing that I did the one sort of fact I could gleam for you is the symbolism of the mugs.
Adam So each of them drinks tea.
Adam Each of the three main characters drinks tea from and the mugs that come out side all have something written on them.
Lee Yes, Jennifer Ellison's one's got the boss written on it, doesn't it?
Adam Because she is.
Lee Yes, yes.
Adam Yeah.
Adam Reece Reece is says I love tea because he does.
Chris That's.
Adam And and Andy Serkis has got I'm with stupid.
Adam You know, I was just like so I'd seen that. I was like, I'm watching out for that.
Adam It was very pleased to see it there, but yeah.
Lee Yeah.
Lee Yeah, it's very well done.
Lee But again, like a lot of things in it, I think it is a very well thought out film.
Lee I'll it's.
Lee Although it's a very basic story to begin with it it's two basic stories effectively to together.
Lee But yeah, they cram so much stuff in like comedy wise and as you say the references and stuff.
Lee Like I always forget that there's that Chinese gang outside who have turned up to to kill her and the head. Oh yeah, because they seem like they're going to be very important.
Chris Oh yeah, because they seem like they're going to be very important.
Lee Yeah, and I'm like I know.
Adam They are.
Adam That I I wondered if that was something that was stuck in for runtime or something like that almost.
Adam Because because it just don't go anywhere.
Adam You know.
Adam The only thing it indicates to you is that they're on Andrew and the fact that they've got a bag full of napkins tells you that they're on to Andrew.
Adam So I think it'd be just more interesting.
Adam It's like and they, you know, just they didn't need to be there cuz eventually all that happens is that.
Adam Jennifer Ellison and Reece Shearsmith stumble on the farm anyway. So they all the time was kicking them off.
Adam I don't know whether it's just to suggest how dangerous the farmer is or.
Chris So it's incidental.
Chris I think it does add to the this is like it's a fantastical story, but it still feels real. It's like this is what happens when a horror film happens really in real life with these people who are just this is how they would be. It's not a film where it's been written to be, you know, really impressive. Everybody's doing great kind of thing.
Chris Like so yeah, so I think in a way they they add to that. They're like they're incidental, but they could just be there and they've got involved a little bit but really, that's that's the end of their story.
Adam Yeah.
Lee Yeah, they need somebody needs to relay back to the head of the family where the cottage is. So I suppose they're in there.
Lee So they're in there just to make the after credit sequence work.
Adam Yeah.
Lee We need to explain it.
Adam So that maybe that's what it was. It was just because it's like, well we we paid for Steven Berkoff.
Lee We need to explain it.
Adam Oh dear. He he turned he turned up making Marlo look like Marlo an Apocalypse Now seem like a professional well, well demeaned man to deal with. Told them to wear off, said he wasn't going to say a line, said you can film me boots and then lick them. And fucked off back to his theater.
Lee But yeah, so this is definitely a recommend for me again.
Adam
Lee Yeah, it is one that I I do bring out semi-frequently and always enjoy.
Lee and it is it is funny. It does come out in a cycle with Shaun of the Dead and Severance generally.
Lee
Lee It's it's you know, when you watch something and you enjoy it so much you want to watch something close to it, so.
Chris Yeah, yeah.
Adam He's helpful in that sense definitely that you've got those others that you can sort of latch on to them.
Lee Yeah.
Lee so yeah, it's always a fun fun cycle.
Lee So yes, speaking of which, as we've said, so this is our countryside.
Lee month, we're calling it. Countryside C I D. E, very nice there Adam, by
Adam That's that's.
Adam That sounded like we'd just formed the police.
Adam Countryside, C I D.
Lee
Lee But yes.
Lee So we are going to be doing,
Lee Severance for our next episode.
Lee the Danny Dyer movie from a year somewhere around 2008.
Adam I think before 2008.
Lee Yes.
Adam It's just.
Lee But yeah.
Lee It's easy to find, you'll manage, guys.
Lee
Adam Yeah, it's the one with Danny Dyer. Don't watch like two series of the American TV series Severance.
