I've been rewatching old seasons of The Great British Bake Off and it blew my mind when one of the hosts said he played Old Greg. Does anyone remember that weird ass online sketch?
That was an episode of The Mighty Boosh.
Ah, I knew it was from something, but had no idea what exactly.
Noel Fielding is a well-known British comedian, mate
Haha it's definitely possible I live under a rock.
To be fair, I didn't connect him with that probably because I never saw The Mighty Boosh, or much British media in general. Out of context, it was just one weird thing we would show each other from the internet at school among a bunch of weird, other things from the internet. I completely forgot it existed until he brought it up in an episode, and then the memories came back, along with Salad Fingers and other weird, this in this thread.
I'm keeping that show in the holster for if my kid ever starts becoming normal
