Wow, I haven't been on here for ages! Sorry. I did of course still listen to all the recent run of 6 music shows, and dragged many people to watch ATB with me, so I have been waving my A&J flag...

Well I just saw this on Chortle, and noticed it hadn't been mentioned here,

Joe's been nominated for Best Screenplay at the Writer's Guilt of Great Britain Awards, against Richard Ayoade.

I wish I could give you a hug. This completely passed me by. I only follow Chortle on Twitter so I don't read their pages if I'm really busy. Thanks so much. This is really wonderful. A proper, grown-up nomination.

I decided to plump for the double-play with the fancy luminous cover. Just ordered it there. One of these days I'll get around to buying a blueray player and it'll be worth it.

ha ha...you really are an idiothole! It's a nice package.....but I hope you realise the DVD that's in the Double Play doesn't have all the extra features. It just has the commentaries but not the featurettes....the regular DVD package is a two discer.

Bollocks. Does the blueray part of the doubleplay have all the bonus stuff on it though?

Edit: yeah I think it's got all the same bonus features but they may be on the blueray disc. I stand by my decision. I'm sick of DVDs. I've got this fancy (second-hand HD)TV, and anytime I watch a film on it it looks rubbish. You can see all the pixels and it's annoying. The HD TV channels look amazing but whenever I stick in a DVD, the step-down in quality is remarkable. At least now I can re-watch the film again (in DVD quality) and then if I get around to buying a blueray player then I can see the bonus stuff and watch the film in all its HD glory.

Watched this for the first time tonight, excellent film, watched every single extra on the 2nd disc (which made me love it even more), gonna watch it with the commentaries tomorrow (I can't believe Joe sat in for three!)

Well done Mr Cornish, glad i finally got round to seeing it.

I'm sorry I haven't kept this thread up to date.

Joe is in New York this weekend for the Comic Con. Twitter went nutzoid last night because he gently mentioned 'we'd been approached' about a US remake, a sequel and a tv spinoff.

You can see him chat about it here and there's a lovely 14 minute interview with him here .
