17 - "Timeslides" with Jonno
Manage episode 413284712 series 3538175
Jonno is here and he’s geeking out! He’s never missed a Gazpacho Soup Day, and we’re talking comprehensive rankings of eps and seasons. As a TV comedy writer and member of powerhouse sketch trio Sheeps, his fandom has evolved along with his experience as a crafter of comedy. Expect insights into what the show tells us about what’s wrong with Rimmer, how the 2020 lockdown helped Jonno understand Lister’s experience as the last human, and why regret is a recurring theme of the show.
Series 3 episode 5, Timeslides, is an episode Jonno thought about a lot during lockdown. He tells us why - and it may break your heart a little. We lovingly unpack the brilliance of the ep - from the throwaway cruelty of Rimmer’s fate, to what the show tells us about luck and money. Jonno’s tales of problem solving in TV writers’ rooms will have you appreciating the genius of the tension sheet as a plot device. As a bonus, you’ll find out why Thanks For The Memory is Jonno’s favourite piece of TV, ever.
SO WHAT IS IT?
