Något som däremot är väldigt bra och roligt och - faktiskt också - tänkvärt är filmen The Trip. Rob Brydon och Steve Coogan spelar sig själva i en påhittad historia.

"This happy breed of men, this little world
This precious stone, set in the silver sea
Which serves it in the office of a wall
Or as a moat defensive to a house
Against envy of less happier lands
This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England ..."
ur Richard III av W. Shakespeare

Ja den har jag sett! Vi köpte den någon gång innan jul. Torr brittisk humor, men tänkvärt, som du skriver. Steve Coogan är alltid bra tycker jag.
Halloj! Jag vet ju att du gillar Coogan skarpt... Jag tyckte det var ganska sorgligt i slutet. Deras olikheter visades sig så tydligt där, och anledningen till att en av dem var nöjd med livet och den andra olycklig.
