  • Martin and Olivia as the lower-middle-class husband and wife in a documentary-type-thing in sketches from the short-lived, one-series-only sketch show 'Bruiser' (2000) starring Olivia Colman, Martin Freeman, Matt Holness, Charlotte Hudson, David Mitchell and Robert Webb.
    Oh, Martin. You're so fish-belly white it almost makes me cry. On the other hand, that's only one single layer of cloth separating my eyes from his bollocks. XD
    "No, I like 'em." -- Best line. Ever. Martin in beads is ADORABLE.
    Clips are from episodes 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5

    This is one of my favourite sketches. There's no gimmick to it, or like a punchline or joke as such, it's just dialogue between two characters. I have met people exactly like the husband and wife, a very certain kind of British person that these two portray perfectly, not just with the London working class accent, but their mannerisms and idiosyncrasies. The kind of language they use and the way they lay out their ideas and thoughts is just so fucking accurate to that certain type of people you meet in London, the UK and probably elsewhere in the world. And it's just them talking and the writing is just fantastic because while it's very funny, plays out like it could be an actual real conversation a couple would have.
