The actor playing the guy from the Tech Support call centre was also in the episode “The Final Countdown” where he played “Negative One.”

[@ThomasCostigan]

Never clocked that. He's so different between episodes!

David Crow played Negative One and the french tech was played by Kevin Eldon who was also a policeman in Hot Fuss

[@clothilde1623]

When this originally aired the Vista line followed by Moss’s “WE’RE GOING TO DIE” was honestly one of the funniest fucking things I’d seen; I laughed so hard I could barely breathe. Now, sadly, it’s become of its time 🙁 Only those who lived through the misery of Microsoft Vista will ever truly appreciate it...and it still makes me laugh my arse off!

[@carlhartwell7978]

I'd love to marvel at the one living person who still misses that atrocity of an OS. I mean it has pretty much been all downhill since 2000/XP. But still, Vista was a truly unique nightmare. I'd have more fun with BIOS. Heck that, even the Bootloader!

[@TheSoundcrow]

I’m from the UK and if you like moss and Douglas then you will love ‘Garth Marenghis Dark Place’ it’s only 1 series 6 episodes and about 25 mins per episode, based on retro 80s TV horror comedy series around a paranormal hospital, but is made to look like a budget tv series with bad acting (on purpose and hilarious!) if you love moss and Douglas Renholm and our wired UK humour you will both love it! There is prob a trailer on KZbin for it so can see what I mean, and can thank me later! Love your reaction videos hope you do one on this series as not a lot of people would have heard of it

[@Briansgate]

Darkplace is so flippin' awesome!

It’s not Jim but it is Kevin Eldon. He’s basically been in EVERY British Comedy for the last 25 years or so. If you check out his IMDB, it’s immense.

[@FortressMinimus]

If you're looking for a replacement UK comedy that features a (VERY VERY) angry man getting into absurd situations: One Foot in the Grave. It will also give a little backstory for one particular episode of Father Ted.

13:03 "Bunking off" is the UK equivalent of "playing truant". In some places it can be so bad that there are truancy officers whose only job is to check out places like malls, arcades, and so on to find kids that are bunking off from school and take them back to school. Considering the name of the term - bunking off - I can only assume it originated in boarding schools and has something to do with bunk beds. As a Brit I have no idea.

[@jenfine]

In the States we call it “playing hooky”.

[@zerodivisionerror]

As a software developer and iOS programmer, I'd like to point out that you don't need to close apps on your phone. Mobile operating systems function differently from PCs. The operating system simply puts the apps to sleep, so if you have a modern phone (from the last decade or newer), you almost never need to manually close any apps. I'm with the Queen on this!

[@maxdamagusbroski]

Almost never. I always have to keep helping my old workmate out because he can't log in to his app.. turned out it was because an out of date version was "asleep" in his list of minimised apps. He had to close it for the thing to work again.

[@rasmusn.e.m1064]

That's good to know, actually :)

[@JD-gc7lt]

This is the answer ^^^ and it doesn’t save any battery because they get put to sleep, it actually uses more battery to start apps up from scratch over and over again

[@TheGarethLusk]

"Skeeter the saloon slag" would make a good character

[@RotundBox]

As much as I hate to say it... not closing an app on a phone does nothing bad! If your phone needs more RAM, it'll close anything in the background automatically. It'll look like it's still there, but if you go back to it, it'll just open it again. And if an app wants to run in the background, closing it by swiping up also won't necessarily stop it... so it's useless to do either!

[@ethelwulfmountbattenderoth2286]

Those aren't 27 apps open. Those are 27 virus pop ups. Which used to be a big problem.

[@EclecticInstinct]

When this show ends you need to react to the series - What We Do In The Shadows - featuring Matt Berry!!!!

There have been a few programmes called People Like Us but it is the one starring 'Roy Mallard' that you want.

[@johnmclackland3435]

Interesting George Lucas reference….but Disney acquired Star Wars decades after multiple CGI iterations were added to Star Wars 4/5/6.

[@BasicallyBananas]

The way she uses her phone is actually the recommended way, despite seeming counterintuitive. You’re only supposed to close out of apps that aren’t working or you don’t regularly use. iOS is incredibly good at suspending background activity, plus iPhone ram is much higher than is actually needed. In fact relaunching apps after closing them completely has a larger impact on energy use and processing than keeping them open in the background.

[@BasicallyBananas]

Unless she has an android, idk then.

As someone who has used VR for several years. Do small stints (like 20 mins) to get started. And having a fan blowing on you can help some people with motion sickness. New headsets like the Quest 3 have very clear lenses and use the cameras on the front so you can see your surroundings in mixed reality when you turn it on, which also helps for those who haven't gotten their VR legs.
