Did anyone see tonight's excellent BBC 2 documentary on British film comedy?
I swear that in the segment talking about the Wallace and Gromit films, there was a sequence about Nick Park having to make compromises for Hollywood and that turned out to be casting Mel Gibson as a rooster...... the next thing said by Jessica Stephenson, the narrator, was "By accepting Mel Gibson's cock, they were able to employ the likes of Phil Daniels"
Ooh, err missus - I nearly dropped my cuppa!
Maybe I just imagined it....
