Great stuff (but I'm hardly going to say otherwise am I?).
Favourite character has got to be Bob Fossil, Rich Fulcher is absolutely hillarious.
Favourite episode is probably the Hitcher or Jungle.
I can't remember what they call it but the song off of The Call of the Yeti is awesome, and Old Greg's Do You Love Me :hihi:

Old Greg or the Hitcher would be my favourite. Or even Howard Moon when he was a goth. "Did a **** on a swan yesterday. Right on it."

The guy who plays Bob is as wierd in real life... saw a documentary about the Boosh on BBC 3 a bit ago.

I love the Hitcher lol. Not sure what my favourite episode of all time is...I really loved the Tundra one, mainly because of the song, and I loved the one with the 4-way crimp in series 3.

Everyone loves Old Gregg and Hitcher.... is it because we all have a Noel-in-green-facepaint fetish? :hihi:

I watched the goth episode again the other day lololol. I loved Howard's mustache, even with his new goth look lol.

The song in series three... the punk one... where Vince is singing about sh?*tting on people and their mum etc reminds me of the goth episode somewhat lol.

You know what, scrub all of those. My favourite is Tony Harrison but I forgot about him. I'm sorry Tony. You are the best.

Tony Harrisson was pretty cool....

The Crack Fox in Series 3 was the scariest...

I'm afraid I don't find the "Mighty Boosh" funny in the slightest - but I do think Noel Fielding is utterly GORGEOUS! :D

Yeah I like the Mighty Boosh but I'm not a big enough fan to say what my favourite episode is. It does make me laugh though. :)

Well yeah, he's got great hair, but he's not that good looking when he's wearing a short wig

Some random afternoon quotes....

Howard Moon: Just imagine the headlines 'Howard Moon, Colon, Explorer'. Got a ring to that don't it?
Vince Noir: Colon Explorer?
Howard Moon: You know what I was saying.
Vince Noir: I think that's got the wrong ring to it

~

Vince Noir: Seriously though, you should check out my icey wardrobe.
Howard Moon: What, the human Coke can?
Vince Noir: This is the glam rock ski suit!
Howard Moon: The arctic has no respect for fashion, Vince. You know, never take the tundra lightly. It can drive a man insane. You know what it is about this place, that gets people mad?
Vince Noir: Not really.
Howard Moon: Have a look through there, what do you see?
Vince Noir: [looks through binoculars] Nothing.
Howard Moon: Exactly. It's the nothingness... the whiteness... the endless... ness. Stretching on beyond the human imagination. Desolation of the soul. Oh my Gooooooooooood!
[raps]
Howard Moon: Ice flow, nowhere to go / Ice flow, nowhere to go / Lost in the blinding whiteness of the tundraaaaaa / Check him out.
[Vince dances]
Howard Moon: They call him the shrew! Arms in short, then with the claw!
Vince Noir: I'm little Johnny Frostbite, moving around / Freezing you up, freezing you down / Like an icicle / Coming in your tent in the pink light, scissorbite/
Vince Noir, Howard Moon: Arctic death!
Vince Noir: Infinite night!
Howard Moon: Call me Tundra Boy / Cause I move like an arctic
Vince Noir, Howard Moon: Lizard!
Howard Moon: When the blizzard strikes / I disappear like a pipe dream
Vince Noir, Howard Moon: All that's left is the gleam!
Howard Moon: On a tent peg
Vince Noir, Howard Moon: Boosh, Boosh / Stronger than a moose / Don't lock your door or we'll come through your rooftop / Stop, look around, take your mind off the flow / Cause the Boosh is loose / And we're a little bit raaaaw! /Ice flow, nowhere to go / Ice flow, nowhere to go / Lost in the blinding whiteness of the tundraaaa!
Howard Moon: ...yeah?
Vince Noir: All right! Proved your point, in song format!
Howard Moon: Yeah, well maybe you'll take this place a bit more seriously now.

~

Vince Noir: C'mon, Howard, let's get out of here.
Howard Moon: Stop tugging at my mink!
Vince Noir: Mink? That's a bit off, isn't it? You're supposed to be a zookeeper.
Howard Moon: Yeah, well, it's a different law in the tundra, Vince. It's kill or be killed.
Vince Noir: What, by a mink?
Howard Moon: They get very big out here.
[gesturing at floor-length mink coat]
Howard Moon: This whole thing is just one mink.
Vince Noir: That's not right. I know, I read a pamphlet.
Howard Moon: So? I once glanced at a hedge. What's your point?
Vince Noir: No, it was a mink pamphlet. "Minky Monthly". There were millions of them on the front, dancing around. It said that it takes about ninety mink just to make a small ladies glove.
Howard Moon: That's 'cause they're really crap at sewing.

I spent a couple of hours talking to Rich Fulcher at the Groucho Club, God that sounds really pretentious but my mate used to manage it, she had a party there and Rich is a friend of hers. He's exactly the same in real life, shooting off at tangents, a totally original comedian. I left my missus talking to him for 10 mins and when I rejoined them, they were half way through a bizzare wedding ceremony using a modified Monster Munch as a ring. Although not credited as a writer with the Boosh, his influence is all over it.

saw the show in Buxton Opera House last night - it was GREAT.

As I'm much more of a radio/series one fan, I was a little apprehensive that it would be pants, but I'm pleased to say I was wrong. Charlie even made a late appearance!!
