penguinista answered your question: Does anyone else think Robert Webb should have played Alan Dick in Holy Flying Circus?
I thought that too! The guy even looked a bit like Robert Webb.

Thank you! It really was uncanny. A missed opportunity there, I think.

Aw, don’t say that… Jay Thorpe was brilliant. :)

I didn’t say he was bad! I just kept sitting there waiting for him to call his staff “boffins,” is all.

I think this was my favorite part

Graham: I think you should do it. You and John.
John: And why us, pray tell?
Graham: Because you're good at shouting at people and being enormously sarcastic, and Mike's the nicest man in the world. You're the perfect team. I can't do it because Christians and homosexuals can't be in the same room together, we're their natural predators. Terry G can't do it because he's American, and I think that deep down, none of us like or trust Americans. No offense, Terry.
Terry G: Screw you, ass monkey.
Graham: Terry J can't do it because he'll just prat on about the camera angles, and Eric won't do it because they won't pay him.
Eric: Exactly. So you two have to do it. All those in favor, say "Christ on a gondola"!
All but John: Christ on a gondola!

Did that character not scream “Raymond Terrific” to anyone else?

I swear I’m not crazy, he was just like that.
