    Duggro you're such a sap for a guy with a tattoo :D

    Quite a few X Files moments rival that one, but I'm, tooo drunk to find one. :D

    In my opinion nothing tops Chris Morris' 'Brass Eye' series. That was the pinnacle of U.K t.v.

    i am not afraid to admit it! it made me happy dammit!

    and HLF....i may have a tattoo and be a super badass because of it, but showing one's softer side does not weaken the extent to which one's ass is bad

    you should remember that when you get your shoulder tattoo and scream :)

    Oh, no. Not nearly the same thing. I love Jim and Pam, but they hold nothing on Tim and Dawn.

    this is something that i can merely mention to my friend and we crack up at the 'thought' of it.

    this is the only clip i can find.. the fun starts at 1.45 in and its Boyzones first tv appearance.. i'm laughing at it just now :D
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    God. That's so sexy. Swoon.

    I think you, harmless and FinsburyParkCarrotts should start a boyband like that-with the same cloathing. Phwoar.

    I honestly don't get the Tim/Dawn obsession. They had little if any chemistry together. I just got finished watching the UK Office, and I don't get the hype. Okay, it's a damn funny show. Really quite genius to be honest. It's hard to really pick a winner between the US and UK versions, however.. Tim and Dawn were boring compared to Jim and Pam. It was barely even a teasing relationship until like the last 2 of 14 episodes.

    The only time they ever got somewhat close was when Tim asked Dawn out.. But hell, it didn't even sound like it was as serious as the other characters made it out to be.

    Jim and Pam dominate Tim and Dawn. Better pranks, more sexual tension, funnier lines, much better acting.

He Aint Heavy He's MY Brother... tearjerker!!!! but it was just so amazing! my dad cried at that bit and when i said "dad are you crying" he said "nah, i poked my eye with the, ehhh, champagne flute"

    the jim/pam thing is just a television relationship though! brash, open and fuck all underlying sexual tension.

    from the british perspective, or at least mine, the tim/dawn relationship was a perfect example of what i have gone through, and seen others experience which is a much more subdued thing based on stolen glances and awkward pauses! thats the british way dammit!! so much more sublime than that stupid jim/pam nonsense

    btw, i think the US office is great as a show, but its a faaaar poorer version of the uk show (there are other threads for this argument i know, but it has to be said)

    If I've never watched the US version or heard of the UK version I wouldn't have put Tim and Dawn together. It didn't seem like something that was going to happen. Call me a stupid American, but I just didn't see it.

    ok, I got a couple things here, first...

    I have absolutely zero interest in any "dramatic" stuff they try to pull over on the american Office show. The pam and jim stuff...I dont know. I surmise that Im supposed to care because they spend so much motherfucking time on it, but I dont. At all. at all. The original series dealt with that relationship a bit more delicately, so it meant a bit more...to me, anyway.

    Regardless. The more important thing is this...

    In the UK Chrimbo special...what is the song that plays when Tim & Dawn finally get together...you know the one. Its all like...I forget the lyrics. But its also in the penultimate scene in Can't Hardly Wait. I've been waiting my adult life to have an excuse to ask someone about this. So dont let me down.
