S02 E05 - Kevin & Perry Go Large (w/ Ben Clark)
Listen now
Description
As the Venga Boys once said, "We're going to Ibiza"... unfortunately the BritCom goes to the Movies budget didn't stretch as far as actually going to the Balearics, but via the magic of podcasting, we can transport you there by discussing Kevin and Perry Go Large.   Ben Clark joins Guy and Rob for this episode. The writer, director, and comedian is also one-third of Pappys and had, up until this moment, never seen the movie. Luckily he's still talking to us!   We talk about the origins of Kevin the teenager from Kevin the annoying little brother in Harry Enfield's Television Programme to Superstar DJ with sidekick Perry, played by the inimitable Kathy Burke. Kevin became the benchmark by which all millennial teenage boys were (rightly or wrongly) compared.   But as big a cultural phenomenon as Kevin and Perry were (along with many other of Enfield and Burke's characters) how did that translate to the big screen? How kind has the last quarter of a century been to the movie and of course, its memorable soundtrack packed with dance anthems. Join Rob, Guy, and Ben to find out.   Kevin the annoying little brother https://youtu.be/WIhtPCyEDCY?si=t0Hox3WsE86aif-I   Kevin becomes a teenager https://youtu.be/dLuEY6jN6gY?si=F-1K44boOCE1JTA3   Kevin washes the family car https://youtu.be/-qUP3yHEpRw?si=TrEMvywKMm1EtJWd   Perry returns from Manchester https://youtu.be/ZDKF8KkD7rE?si=RQS0wn9ypYPp4DCJ   Kevin the teenager Pillsbury Toaster Pockets https://youtu.be/EuNTG1sOovU?si=Bf-dnR0gIO_onEGD   Ben Clark in Badults https://youtu.be/R7w6y6snkzo?si=u8rY5f-BCmEHzKzm   Smashie and Nicey End of an Era https://youtu.be/UP67GQoII5M?si=kDdkcNC-59ohvn53   Wobbly Randy Old Ladies https://youtu.be/vPrI8rIcFSk?si=7CHDCGmk-W780lH6   Fast Show - Newlyweds https://youtu.be/LXxgxXiqZZw?si=kM-b6r3m2VEDuSYI   Kevin and Perry Go Large Trailer https://youtu.be/nENwy9GRyF0?si=aTI3i1P3n9rq4lkD   Precious Bratz presents Kevin and Perry - Big Girl https://youtu.be/iEk-bUC1sGs?si=wo7dT__R3NdZIDdo   Fragma - Toca's Miracle https://youtu.be/zlDn4_sMUtg?si=xvql3LC73XHwa_8G   Kevin and Perry Go Large - Turd in the sea https://youtu.be/_nETL4r2mrc?si=bvgZgsj_4ma5Eqxg
