Spaced
The archetypal slacker comedy, Spaced is held in awed esteem by those who think Star Wars is the highest form of cultural expression and Pot Noodles are tastier than a three-course meal at a Gordon Ramsay restaurant. That'd be us then.
Starring Simon Pegg, Nick Frost and Jessica Stevenson (now Hynes, but still Jessica), Spaced tells the story of two young 'professionals', Tim and Daisy, who pretend to be a couple in order to secure a flat in north London.
Once they're in, it's time to sort out their lives. Daisy wants to be a journalist and Tim wants to spend more time with his PlayStation, but chain-smoking landlady Marsha, and twitchy and tortured artist Brian, who live in flats elsewhere in the house, make it their business to complicate matters.
Then there's Tim's best mate Mike, who once stole a Chieftain tank and tried to invade Paris during TA manoeuvres.
With expert movie take-off sequences, brilliant and batty adventures, ingenious ideas on how to kill time and an ace soundtrack, Spaced is a bona fide classic and a pop culture fan's dream come true.

New. Movie references abound in the sitcom about an unconventional flat-share. A friend of Tim's offers to take everyone out for a night of hedonism and repetitive beats.

I'd love to see where Tim and Daisy are at now, but the Peggster has gone on record and said there will not be a third series. :'(

I have this on DVD - twice - yet I still wanted to watch this last night, simply because it SO deserves to be watched. Unfortunately, I couldn't - the television was spoken for - but it remains, in my mind, one of the best sitcoms ever written. On a completely different note, ten years ago, when this was first showing, I went to see Eddie Izzard live. And I'm going again this weekend. Isn't it funny how history repeats itself?
