The Trip - BBC2 Now

[Beach Hut]

Coogan and Brydon musing on some cooking tour and presumably with a Land Rover taking the piss out of Rick Stein.

Potentially could be very good.

I thought it was good. There is definatly room for improvement there tho but Rob and Steve make a decent pairing by the looks of things

I loved it, bit confused at first cos I was under the impression from the way it had been portrayed that Coogan was playing a Jay Rayner type character, when in fact he is playing himself. And Rob Brydon is playing himself, albeit the pair of them are doing it in a "Curb Your Enthusiasm" style - ie. some parts real, some made up.

Personally I liked the way they interacted, looking forward to the next one.

I enjoyed it, good Monday night viewing.

I thought it was excellent. Its a total parody on Coogan and I think its incredibly brave as it paints himself as a sad lonely bitter comedian..

Brydon doing all the voices, was also hysterical. I really enjoyed it.

Best by far though was Coogan's Michael Caine. BRILLIANT!!

At last some REAL comedy for the discerning viewer. after a glut of Harry's and Pauls and My Family comes something genuinely funny. Every now and again something like this or Nighty Night comes along and puts the things like the remade Reggie Perrin firmly back in it's dull, unimaginative, suburban place.
