Good effort, Steve, but it is not quite there. You have to capitalize the title correctly, that is a must. Remember, it is not "Extreme measures", rather it is "Extreme Measures". Now, read how I have written it out correctly and you can attempt it once more. Extreme Measures with Trevor Eve, Friday at 9 on BBC One. Notice how I chose to capitalize "Measures" yet still refrained from doing it to "with", as is right. Do not get nervous and overcorrect yourself. You may now go ahead and try it again, just like we practiced. When you have cracked this stage you can go ahead and move onto the next level, in which you consider whether the show is titled: Extreme Measures with Trevor Eve. Or if it is actually called "Extreme Measures" but was then simply promoted as featuring Trevor Eve whether continually as part of the conception of the show or if only limited to a part of the series, perhaps just that once for a particular episode. In which case "with", now not part of the title, still remains un-capitalized, though for a different reason. But beyond that sort of change on the theoretical level which do not inform any changes in the practical, there are now also a few practical changes which require adjustments that you must supply. The title must now instead be presented as: 'Extreme Measures', with Trevor Eve, Friday at 9 on BBC One. Now the comma I've added for the benefit of the reader, if you like you may write it simply as: 'Extreme Measures' with Trevor Eve, Friday at 9 on BBC One. Now, THaT, is how IT'S done. hOoOrAH. Gorgeous, simply gorgeous. Best Regards. Rob.
Because it was loosely scripted with a lot of improvised dialogues, so you're always going to end up with a lot of stuff that has to be trimmed out for time, pacing and structure.
4:21 I absolutely love the way he says “Extreme Measures” three times in a row, each time with a slightly different nuance on the word “Extreme”. The first time feels like your bog-standard voiceover… the second conveys a sense of intrigue… and the third gives the impression of a darker, more aggressive programme.
For some reason, I am extremely obsessed with this hilarious duet! I wish they would also do “In a world of…” and even go back to 1970’s American TV For example: Tonight, on a very special episode of Barnaby Jones….:”
Great now every salient two-word phrase I encounter in real life sounds like a potential dramatic vehicle for Trevor Eve. I'm taking a shower, thinking "Hot shower. With Trevor Eve."
Hilarious. Sometimes it’s not a formal production that does it for actors; sometimes the whole point of being an actor is just to hang out with other actors. How I miss THAT and I was never even close to being famous at all, but I do miss the laughter that can be found in the company of actors.
that was such an accurate observation by Rob @ 3:20. my direct association when listening to Coogan's version was brutalist 80st architecture, and IRA lurching behind every worn down lot
It's a shame they had to cut the 'Extreme Measures' sequence - firstly, because it reveals a lot about voiceovers and, secondly, the 'Blind Corner' line would have indeed been "the finest moment of the series".
Just started watching the '83 Jamaica Inn, and as soon as the title credits started rolling, this was playing in my head. I can never read the name Trevor Eve ever again without bursting out laughing.
Also, you don't get enough shows about this sort of male friendship. It's competitive but there's a constant need to say any old shit to make the other guy laugh.
An extra layer of this is the fact that Brydon offers a genuinely fascinating insight into the intricacies of voiceover work.
nice
Oh, you're good..
"genuinely fascinating"?
How about quite interesting?
You simply MUST hear TVOntario station idents from the 80s.
Genuinely Fascinating. With Trevor Eve.
“You’ve got to get into ‘BBC One’ a sense of, ‘oh thank God it’s on BBC One’” is hilarious, what a good line
Try and bring a sense of homecoming to bbc 1
Steve's version is just as good as Rob's.
@@kpec3 Na Rob does way more of those gigs, you can hear the polish in his versions
So fucking on brand
I've been shut away in mental hospitals, and doing 'Extreme Measures' into the mirror has been a lifesaver.
I just love the way you can get so many different meanings from saying exactly the same thing slightly differently.
i'm home alone and i can't stop doing this
I've been imitating Michael Caine because of these 2 lunatics for the past 2 weeks!
You were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!
@@QJby1Hod Can you do the broken voice (when he gets very emotional… when he gets very emotional indeed)?
@@mattneilson1824 "NO! NO!..no.."
This was an accidental masterclass on line delivery. So good
Nothing accidental about it lol they knew what they was going for haha

Back of the net!
Kiss my face
Smell my cheese!
I've got a hundred and four friends.
Not my words Carol. The words of TOP GEAR magazine.
1:18 the contrast of the jolly ITV announcer into a stone-faced Brydon will always crack me up.
I could happily listen to these dudes ramble all day and feel like I'm learning something.

@@FirstnameLastname-kn5sw And you have to spell "capitalise" according to British English, not American English, when writing in British English.
netbookeater ahahahaaaa 😄😄😄😄
Try typing it a bit more intensely
Ho-ho, it'll be grrrreeeet!
"at loggerheads with the British Cardinal" Almost spit my tea out.
... and he has to choose ... between the Church and his ... ardour.
They have such top notch Banter
What I love about this is that it becomes an inside joke nearly nobody else could possibly get
Yeah I'm always quoting it with people who know it 😂😂
“can I give you a reading” with an extreme look of ernest on his face.
@Derek Gleeson My name is Ness, first name Earnest.
I've been on a The Trip scenes binge for a while now.
How do they not burst out laughing every five seconds??? Seriously, the fact that they keep straight faces throughout just makes it more hilarious.
I like the way Rob Brydon makes Coogan laugh with the blind corner comment. 4:54.
I love how Brydon's face drops so quickly after his ITV reading. As if to say 'Oh God isn't ITV just the absolute worst'
How do they make straightforward statements so hilarious, love it
why is there so much quality footage that wasn't in the show, this is gold
Because it was loosely scripted with a lot of improvised dialogues, so you're always going to end up with a lot of stuff that has to be trimmed out for time, pacing and structure.
"Blind Corner with Robson Green" still makes me laugh. Great observation.
I don’t get it.
This is an inadvertent masterclass.
I don't know why, but these make me laugh out loud on a miserable morning. Thank you!
_Miserable Mornings_ ... with Trevor Eve.
I’m still waiting for the 80s/90s band Extreme to measure Trevor Eve
4:21 I absolutely love the way he says “Extreme Measures” three times in a row, each time with a slightly different nuance on the word “Extreme”. The first time feels like your bog-standard voiceover… the second conveys a sense of intrigue… and the third gives the impression of a darker, more aggressive programme.
Extreme measures. Extre-. Extreme? Extreme measures. Extreme measures!
*whispers*
Extreme Measur- no.
Trevor Eve. BBC 1. Extreme Measures? No.
*clears throat*
Extreme- no. Extr-no.
*deep breath*
Extreme Measures. With Trevor Eve. BBC 1.
NAILED IT.
this is so hilarious
Even more hilarious is that it isn't an actual show
My brother and I used to make each other laugh by saying in that really dramatic voice-over voice, CHRISTMAS DAY, FIVE THIRTY-FIVE, BBC ONE.
For some reason, I am extremely obsessed with this hilarious duet! I wish they would also do “In a world of…” and even go back to 1970’s American TV For example: Tonight, on a very special episode of Barnaby Jones….:”
@Me Too Ha! I wish these two would do it!

oh dear obsessed with this. repeat until still funny

Friday at nine BBC One
_Warm Bath_ ... with Trevor Eve
Brydon's trying to make him feel self conscious as revenge because Coogan destroyed his Michael Caine impression.
And succeeding.
I have got to watch this show. I’ve seen tons of these shows
"Don't get angry!"
The ITV version @1:15 is perfect :)
Was blown away by that upon the first viewing: "He NAILED it!", I thought.
Thank god it's on BBC1
Who knew voice overs for Trevor Eve vehicles could be so hilarious.
"At LOGgerheads with the British cardinal. His head is turned by a kindly nurse. And he has to choose between the church and...his ARdor."
Hilarious. Sometimes it’s not a formal production that does it for actors; sometimes the whole point of being an actor is just to hang out with other actors. How I miss THAT and I was never even close to being famous at all, but I do miss the laughter that can be found in the company of actors.
Love it when coogan says "Can we talk about something else..."
Yes but then he confirms that his poor reading bothers him by practicing it in the bathroom mirror.
Extreme Measures, with Trevor Eve. Friday at 9, on BBC1.
Perfect interaction.
that was such an accurate observation by Rob @ 3:20. my direct association when listening to Coogan's version was brutalist 80st architecture, and IRA lurching behind every worn down lot
These are some of the best moments in the series, why on earth did they cut them out?
"If it was ITV... Blind Corner with Robson Green, Thursday at 9 on ITV 1"
02:36 a sense of homecoming
I cannot stop watching this
Muhahahahaahahahah This never gets old........................with Trevor Eve on BBC 1 #Brilliant

I've been doing this speak so many times, I think my girlfriend is leaving me over it.
Last time she replied with "I'll show you extreme measures!".
Sebastian Lund Nielsen Were you right?
I was, but not over the speak I hope :)
_Mad Woman_ with Trevor Eve ... Friday at midnight on ITV
I love how they can’t remember the idea and their cameraman helps them out. Wonder how long it was between then and the first time they said it.
It's a shame they had to cut the 'Extreme Measures' sequence - firstly, because it reveals a lot about voiceovers and, secondly, the 'Blind Corner' line would have indeed been "the finest moment of the series".
It's there in the full series, just not in the cut down feature-length "film" version
Cant stop laughing… I have no idea who the hell trevor eve is, but Im sure he will always be remembered thanks to this

I was just reading the wikipedia for Junkie XL and it said he's a Dutch dj and I immediately thought of him measuring Trevor Eve for a tailored suit.
Just started watching the '83 Jamaica Inn, and as soon as the title credits started rolling, this was playing in my head. I can never read the name Trevor Eve ever again without bursting out laughing.
Hello Rob, hello Steve, this is Clem Fandango. Can you hear me?
You shut the fuck up, Clem Fandango
And your made up name.
Beat me to it
I have an ad for Extreme Measures (1996) on YT now

If you've been affected by any of the issues raised in this video, there's a number you can call ...
Also, you don't get enough shows about this sort of male friendship. It's competitive but there's a constant need to say any old shit to make the other guy laugh.
What's it called again?
That is a good question, why do all the BBC announcement sound the same?
Hi, I’m DJ Extreme
Trevor Eve: that's my name. Don't wear it out!
was this a cut scene?
