The Mighty Boosh! Come with me on a journey through time and space...

PREPARE YOURSELVES FOR
THE
MIGHTY BOOSH!!!!

The whole reason I wanted to start my Blog in the first place, was to natter excitedly about my ongoing (and not always healthy) obsession with The Mighty Boosh.

Somehow life got in the way...but now I am determined to put this wrong damn right!!!!


The Mighty Boosh is one of the finest, most mad-cap bonkers and genius comedies ever aired on BBC, and is written by Julian Barrett and Noel Fielding (see left).




Dose Boosh boys they got da style....











First aired in 2004 in the UK (now all across the continent, US and Australia- infact Oz was the first place they really took off live), I was hooked immediately by it's great daft humour and clever writing and delivery.





Julian Barrett plays Howard Moon, a mustachioed man who believes he is an unrecognised jazz maverick genius, a man full of adventure and wunderlust. Yeah. He thought his visit to his granny's was a weekly travelling adventure. An intellectually vain and deluded creature hurtling towards a middle-age crisis, Howard believes he is destined for greater things, but never will be. This character is loveable, if only because of his love-hate relationship with his young zookeeper assistant, Vince Noir.



Vince is the flip-side to this comedy duo, a stylish, popular and gifted cheeky cockney, the kind of man Howard wanted to be when he was younger. But wasn't. Vince is played brilliantly by writer Noel Fielding. Jazz? You gotta be joking...he adores Gary Numan, Mod rock and Goths. He also is able to talk to the animals- which is damn lucky as the first series is set inside the a run-down but magical zoo called the Zooniverse with a shaman called Naboo, a talking gorilla, and is run by Bob Fossil, a demented American.

AND WE WENT TO SEE THE LIVE SHOW!

Yep, they toured the UK, and Stef, Karen, Darren and I went to Manchester March this year to see them...

The live show was fantastic, and as I blog, Julian and Noel are putting the finishing touches to the Live DVD of The Mighty Boosh Live tour.

Bainbridge: "ahh Naboo, are you in a trance??"
Naboo: "nah, just listening to Fleetwood Mac"
Bainbridge: "ahhh Ruumours"
Naboo: "No, Tusk"

Bainbridge pulls repulsed face. (Stoney silence).
