Boy meets girl on IMDB

Rachael Stirling and Martin Freeman star in Boy Meets Girl, a pacey, stylish new comedy drama that "hilariously transcends the gender divide".

Freeman plays dreamer Danny Reed, whose life is turned upside down when he is struck by lightning and wakes to find himself trapped in a woman's body. Instead of being a scruffy DIY store worker with no prospects, he has now swapped lives with glamorous female fashion journalist Veronica Burton.

Danny suddenly must learn how to walk in stilettos and put on a bra, deal with the amorous advances of Veronica's boyfriend Jay and pass himself off as a fashion expert while also finding out what has happened to his old self.

His double life becomes further complicated when he discovers that Veronica has been having an affair with Ali, the boyfriend of close friend Siobhan. But Danny comes to see the advantages of his new life when he revisits his old DIY shop as the stylish, tall and attractive Veronica and speaks to his fellow worker Pete and the girl of his dreams Fiona about Danny's "disappearance". And, for the first time ever, Fiona seems interested in him.

The question is, will Danny find his way back to his old life and, if he does, will he still want it?

Little Nell Trent (Sophie Vavassuer, above) lives with her doting grandfather in his London shop. Known as The Old Curiosity Shop, it is a magical place, filled from wall-to-wall with dust-laden treasures.
Grandfather keeps his nocturnal gambling activities a secret, borrowing heavily from evil, profiteering loan shark Daniel Quilp.
When he gambles away what little money they possess, Quilp seizes the opportunity to take possession of their beloved shop. It seems Nell and Grandfather are left with only one option - to escape.

Meanwhile, Kit Nubbles - Grandfather’s servant and Nell’s adoring friend - is contacted by a mysterious gentleman looking for news of the missing two.

Other people (2007) as Greg Wilson
Comedy showcase: other people on IMDB

Greg Wilson is an ex-child star. At fourteen, he was a child magician. Precocious, smug, very punchable. The pinnacle of his career was the 1986 Royal Variety Performance, when he charmed the audience with his patter about his Mum sewing name-tags into the backs of all his tricks.

One week later, his career is finished. During a phone-in on the Saturday morning kids TV show, Crikey It's Saturday!, someone rings in and calls Greg 'a fucking wanker' on live TV. It's the ultimate humiliation. The caller has articulated what everyone is secretly thinking. It's a blow from which Greg will never recover.

Twenty years later, Greg works in a leather sofa shop. The early promise of his life unfulfilled. He's bored, unhappy, still hurting on the inside, forever wary of other people. In every human encounter lies potential humiliation.

Even his boss, who looks about 13, treats Greg with utter contempt. But then Greg is recognised by a customer and asked for his autograph. It's the beginning of a journey that will pass through a police station and end with Greg in court, facing a year-long prison sentence for assault.

The office (2001-3) as Tim Canterbury
The office on IMDB

The show is filmed as “a fly-on-the-wall documentary about modern office life”, but without any sort of narrator as you might expect. There is a noticeable difference in the way the characters behave when they are being caught on film as opposed to playing to the camera as they do most of the time. There are also often talking head moments where the four main characters are interviewed by the program makers, but we never hear the questions being asked, and we have no idea as to the identity of anyone behind the camera.

Black books (2000) as the doctor
Black books on IMDB

Following the likeable, low-key How Do You Want Me? (BBC, 1998-99), Irish comedian Dylan Moran's second sitcom was a very different proposition. This time, Moran doubled as co-writer (alongside Graham Linehan), and the result emerged as a twisted cross between Fawlty Towers (BBC, 1975/79) and Linehan's own Father Ted (Channel 4, 1995-98), injecting several doses of wild surrealism into an otherwise traditional format.

Moran starred as Bernard Black, terminally grouchy wine-sozzled proprietor of the bookshop that bears his name. Like Basil Fawlty before him, he is entirely unsuited to running a business, openly despises his customers (instead of special offers, the shop blackboard contains stern admonitions ranging from "No Anecdotage" to an all-encompassing "Don't") and generally manages to alienate all his friends as well, with the inexplicable exception of ditzy Fran Katzenjammer (Tamsin Greig), who runs the New Age accessories shop next door.

Bruiser on IMDB

Mixing bizarre characters with send-ups of television genres including satellite channels and BBC schools revision programmes, the quick-fire style never failed to keep viewers guessing what might crop up next.The recurring gags often worked well, including an appallingly thoughtless American TV reporter and the imagined hit interview series 'Outdoor Wee': a set of mid-urination conversations with the stars, among whom retired cricket umpire Dickie Harold gets somewhat carried away.A pre-Peep Show Mitchell and Webb led both the cast and writing team and several sketches show early hallmarks of their later TV and radio double act.
