BBC Three‘s Mighty Boosh is back for a new series soon. In a tv landscape of tired ideas rehashed by uninspired drones, the Mighty Boosh bothers to try something different and now the BBC is trying something different with the Mighty Boosh. The new series is available as a RealPlayer stream, free of charge, each episode in its entirety. Fantastic.
I’ve been a fan of these guys since their Radio 4 series; people describe it as silliness but that seems pejorative. I admit, though, the tv series isn’t for everyone. It’s not comedy-by-cringe, it’s pure fantasy. Two blokes go on impossible adventures and exchange some of the best dialogue to feature on the box.
Have a look, thanks to the BBC it’s free, so you’ve nowt to lose.

A journalist from Red Herring magazine contacted LugRadio, the other day, with a few questions about the commercialisation of podcasting.
I replied and part of what I said has been quoted in a story about the effect of iTunes’ podcasting support.
They call me “Mr Revell”
