Regardless, that's straight up my all-time favorite show - especially as a fellow past-o. Mark's historical references to his own life are fantastic. It's crazy that the show isn't more popular here in North America. My wife got me into it years ago, but literally no one I've mentioned it to in person has ever even heard of it.
Yeah, especially with Olivia Coleman's popularity and consistently amazing performances, I'd think it'd be more popular. It's a lot of neurotic English awkwardness to withstand though, I suppose.
Mark's historical references are all so funny. Johnson and Super Hans are both hilarious - every single word they say. My wife and I love how awful Elena is, she's just the worst.
The WW2 re-creationist episode and the wedding episode are some of the best written episodes of TV I think. Right up there with the Simpsons' Cape Feare or Futurama's War is the H-Word for me.
