Due to the unique way the BBC is funded, this episode was filmed with a toaster rather than a camera, hence the 144p quality.
@Vylkeer3 жыл бұрын
To be fair, this was recored in 2008, when it wasn’t easy to obtain, let alone upload, an HD digital file of a recording. Either way I agree, 144p is abysmal even for those times. They could’ve managed to at least upload it in 480p.

I would hazard a guess and say he's probably unfulfilled as an actor. I think he's a very good one, but he always gets the romantic comedy roles that may have left him typecast. He did a film with Gene Hackman years ago called 'Extreme Measures' a thriller, although not a box office smash, but his best acting performance in my view, but hey, what do I know..?
