A Trial to Watch Goes Wrong Along

[@admthrawnuru]

Honestly I love the line "this is cobbler" in contrast to being serious. The idea that he'd not only lose his cool but also say nonsense instead of an explitive makes it sillier imo. Censorship sucks, but you guys made the best of it.

[@hotelmario510]

Small correction: "cobblers" isn't nonsense. It's Cockney rhyming slang - "cobblers' awls" = "balls". It's less rude than saying "bollocks" but still considered to be a mild swear word by some.

[@purplefood1]

​@@hotelmario510 very few people think of the rhyming slang swears as actual swears, berk is short for berkley hunt but you can call someone a berk on TV and people won't bat an eyelid.

[@personperson.7744]

@@purplefood1weird to see a comment from 5 hours ago on this post about something I was going to say lol. Interesting fact though: you can’t say Berk in Parliament due to this very reason, but until the 90s Bastard was ok to say

'It's only the second time I've played a person rather than an object or an animal' is by far one of the most iconic things anyone has ever said 😂😂😂

[@wesleybain3657]

The "all rise" joke was so good because if you've ever watched courtroom dramas, you KNOW it's coming. But the build to get to it while they sat down was timed just right to make the timing of the punchline perfect. Knowing it was coming made it funnier for the anticipation. I loved that moment.

[@jujukats8]

I remember watching Peter Pan Goes Wrong and A Christmas Carol Goes Wrong. Knowing that those two are a couple in real life makes the scenes all the sweeter.

[@ellenkingsley]

I believe they got together while doing Peter Pan Goes Wrong

[@zSpirall]

I kinda wish they kept that unrequited love in this show... I was so adorably sweet...

[@ellenkingsley]

@@zSpirall I believe they decided not to continue it because of Charlie and Dave's real life romance Plus their Cornley characters got together anyway

[@aoifefaithmaplesden7559]

NGL, I’d love a Cornley sitcom. Like, a behind the scenes at Cornley sort of thing. Because, they have such great characters PLAYING the characters, and I’d love to see more of it, if that makes sense.

[@mrcritical6751]

Seeing Chris’s creative process would be hilarious. We got a glimpse of what they’re all like behind the scenes in Peter Pan Goes Wrong so getting a more in depth show about them trying to prepare for every weekly play would be hilarious

[@RemyJackson]

"Oh, this is cobblers" has become a phrase my wife and I will utter at least once a day in place of "This is BS" because we heard it on this episode and thought it was funny. Knowing how it came to he makes it even funnier.

Here’s me, as a medic, sat scratching my head over the ‘lacerations to the first and fourth ventricles’. Then I remembered it was a comedy.

I would have liked to have heard from Nancy and Bryony about the treadmill falls they had to take in this episode, Nancy's in particular was an amazing stunt!

The fact the BBC is a British tv company yet didn’t allow such historical British words such as knob and bollocks should be classed as treason can’t imagine how annoying that is

[@krashd]

To be fair fuck is also British and historical, as is cunt. You'd have to draw a line somewhere 🤣 Thankfully you can say or do just about anything on British TV after the watershed (9pm) but a lot of youngsters who love the show would not be able to watch it.

[@johnnhoj6749]

I'm sure it was just because they were broadcast before 9pm.

[@lofthouse23]

But by banning the use, it forces the cast to be more creative and funny. Hence "Cobblers."

[@Appellation]

The glasses look like pince-nez, pronounced 'pahnce-nay' (more or less). I absolutely love the concept of the Goes Wrong series, and the incredible chemistry and skill of the cast really sells it and drives the comedy home. The whole thing could so easily have been taken in a very uncomfortable second-hand embarrassment type of direction, and I'm glad it wasn't.

[@14rs2]

9:38 David: most of my stuff got cut probably because it wasn’t great I love how Charlie is literally a split second away from saying it was great . You guys are such a great couple 🥰
