Apparently Bernard is based on a real bookshop owner Dylan Moran met in Dublin. Just like Basil Fawlty was based on a real proprietor of a hotel that John Clees and the Monty Python team stayed at when filming in Devon
Ahh, I think Black Books is embedded in my soul with the amount of times I watched it as a teenager! Using the phrase "whores will have their trinkets" to refer to random things we bought ourselves was an ongoing joke in our friendship group for YEARS.
Cult classic, not enough people know about this show, glad you’re getting the good word out.. Bill Bailey is a legend, the perfect sidekick for this show..
@@ct5625 Whenever I watch Father Ted I try to pretend every joke is written by Arthur Matthews and when I watch the first series of Black Books I try to pretend every joke is written by Dylan Moran.
I was lucky enough to grow up around the corner from Dylan Moran. We used to follow him home after school. He would come striding out of the local Oddbins with a bag full of wine looking miserable. Good times.
Hey bud if an episode ever gets skipped then I was not able to upload due to copyright restrictions. I will try at a later date to re-edit and try to post again. If I am working on a show I will edit it down several different times to try to upload it but unfortunately I have to skip over it at some point if it is not working for me.
Nah... His old hits are great... But that doesn't mean that I am going to give his current bigotry a free pass. The guy is a bitter old has-been. Just like his equally hateful comrade-in-arms, Rowling.
The Lugwig middle name gag is that, when Bernard looked up at Manny, he looked very reminiscent of Beethoven with an intense stare and wild hair
No one ever gets that joke lol
It's one of my favorite Black Books jokes
Lol I didn't get it and now I do it's so fucking funny cheers for elaborating on that one

That is awesome bud.
Having the thought that there is a rude book shop owner like this out there is just wonderful. 😁
I love Graham Linehan's cameo in this one. 😄

LOL that is a great line, I love it.
snap 🙂
'I woke up and I was there, and so was she and so were our friends, The Genitals.' Such a great line.

Wouldn't say it's a cult classic lol
@@ajaxlewis7664 you’re entitled to your opinion
@@dannjp75 Thank you so much. (Nah, can't leave it) It's the "cult" part... it was very popular!
@@ajaxlewis7664 it is objectively a cult classic
@@euanharrison7125 Didn't really explain the "cult" part. It's hardly some underground comedy that went under the radar...
Edited out Manny's customer:
"WILL YOU LEAVE ME ALONE!!"
With his hair wafting in the wrath of the customer's voice
@@AndrewHalliwell haha quality
I laughed extra hard when he screamed, "ONE IOTA!" lolol
The "I love books" guy is Graham Linehan
Such a shame that he turned out to be such an unhinged raving bigot.

@@ct5625 Say what?
@@SteffBrockley What about when you watch The IT Crowd?
@@ct5625 That's your opinion.
My fav episode is when they create there own story
I actually feel like this was a better introduction to the series than the first episode.
"The Pay's not great but the work is hard" - lol.
He plays the drunk so well doesn't he?
"Locked Out" is my favourite episode...enjoy🤓
For me it's hard to call between, Grapes of Wrath, Locked Out, and The Entertainer.
Dylan Moran looks like Edgar Allan Poe.
He does for sure with his hair styled that way and his outfits.
That was Graham Linehan - the book lover
Oh my lordy, Josh ... If you also do Coupling someday, my life will be complete. So happy you're doing BB! 🤗
I do have that on my list, hoping it gets voted in soon =]

Id forgotten the Mom from Friday night dinner was in this
She looks quite different in this with her hairstyle and the way she dresses.
There's a DvD feature where Bernard writes a letter. It gave me cramp from laughing.
Im in hospitality, its like me lol, why do they come here, to me
The guy with the I loves redshift is the shows weighted Graham Linahan.
You should watch some of Dylan Moran's stand up. He's incredible.
I will check it out =]
are you doing the final run of Only fools eps? also you missed the ep about Peckham Spring.

Nothing funnier than British humor...check out a Scottish comedian, Kevin Bridges...hilarious!!!
I will check him out thanks for the recommendation =]
Pardon me boy, is that the Chattanooga choo choo?
Just a classic brilliant british comedy
It is a great show =]
Book buyer is writer
Indeed. The genius who is Graham Linehan.
👍😂😂😂❤
Nobody who badmouths Linehan should be permitted to watch any of his comedy.

@@jackdubz4247 Plus this is Dylan Moran's comedy, Graham Linehan is very much secondary here
@@jackdubz4247 Very true.
Dude what's happening here? You're cutting out some of the most hilarious bits!
I guess maybe you just have a different sense of humor...
