Listen now
Description
Our second Goon-related podcast of the series, so who better to join Rob and Guy to talk about all things Peter Sellers, A Show Called Fred, and The Mouse That Roared, than host of The Goon Pod, Tyler Adams? There was expert insight galore as BritCom Goes to the Movies tackled its earliest film yet.   An early high-concept outing for Sellers’ many faces and voices on the big screen as he channeled his inner Alec Guinness to play three of the main characters in this Anglo-American cult classic (not the first one of those we’ve profiled in this series either).   There are many unexpected mentions of The Simpsons, Alan Partridge and The Fast Show, proving just how long a shadow Peter Sellers has cast on the comedy world for decades.   Guy had a huge lead over Rob in the quiz coming into this episode, with only one more to go, Rob would need to buck up his ideas…and quickly!   A Show Called Fred – 1956 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbWbz1Z0q3M   The Mouse That Roared – Trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7L7WLFBYR4   The Mouse That Roared – Full Movie https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfD_LTad1hE   Coldland - Shooting Stars  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgYgXl5AxQA   Passport To Pimlico - Trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=634VTm9y1Eo   Theatre of Blood - Trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S94e43JIgHc   Holmes & Yo-Yo - Opening https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NeJd7j-Rhtg
