There are so many reasons why Hot Fuzz is such an excellent film, here are my top reason:
1. The Buddy Cop and big action film genre (especially in the 80s and 90s) were dominated by US films. Edgar Wright made this film so that the UK would have one too. Guns, car chases and blockbuster action, but there's also a Somerfields and a swan is on the loose
2. It is so tightly written. Almost every single line is foreshadowing, a joke, or a call back, sometime even a combination of those. No dialogue is wasted.
"Everyone and their mum's is packing round here....Farmers. Farmer's mums" - the first character Nicholas goes after when he returns is the local farmer, and even his mum.
The Andy's make jokes about going through the phone book making a call to Aaron A. Aaronson, and 'You wanna be a big cop in a small town? Fuck off up the model village!" - The film ends at the model village, and the ginger kid is called Aaron A. Aaronson.
3. The cast is absolutely STACKED. Timothy Dalton as Simon Skinner is literally James Bond. Billie Whitelaw as Joyce who runs the hotel is the nanny from The Omen. Paul Freeman as the Reverend is Belloq from Raiders of the Lost Ark. Olivia Colman as Doris played the Queen in The Crown (and a million other things), Paddy Considine as Detective Wainwright is Viserys in House of the Dragon, Jim Broadbent as Inspector Butterman is Slughorn in Harry Potter (and a million other things), David Bradley as old Arthur Webley is Walder Frey in Game of Thrones and Filch in Harry Potter. Martin Freeman (The Hobbit, Sherlock, Fargo), Steve Coogan (Night at the Museum, Alan Partridge). Bill Nighy (Love Actually, Pirates of the Carribean, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Harry Potter). Eve Draper is played by Lucy Punch not Catherine Tate, but Janine was played by Cate Blanchett (good catch!), and the Father Christmas that stabs Nicholas at the beginning is a cameo by Peter Jackson, the director of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, among other films.
Side note, church roofs often do need repairing in the UK because of how old the stonework is (often hundreds of years old). Also they're often made with lead which is much more durable, but is sometimes at risk of theft which also causes problems.
You forgot that Desk Sgt. Turner is Bill Bailey !!
And David Threlfall as Martin Blower.
The original Frank Gallagher in Shameless.
Edward Woodward, who plays Tom Weaver (the guy checking the cctv footage), not only played a private detective in the 80's tv show The Equalizer, but also played a police sergeant sent to a small remote village in the 70's movie classic The Wicker Man.
Also:
Edward Woodward (Tom Weaver - the NWA guy) was the original Equaliser from British TV
Rory McCann (Michael Armstrong "Yarp") was the Hound in Game of Thrones
Also also: all the surnames of inhabitants of Sanford trace their roots back to the description of jobs their ancestors once did... Weaver (basket maker) Thatcher (roofer) Cooper (barrel maker) Skinner (in the leather trade) Butterman (dairy farmer), etc
Yarp. Thank you for this comprehensive explanation, it was for the greater gooooood.
My favourite bit of trivia. the two desk sergeants are both played by the same person Bill Bailey (hilarious comedian). One is reading a book by Iain Banks and the other Iain M Banks. they're the same author writing under 2 different names for the two genres he writes. so it's one actor playing two people reading one author playing two people.
Hot Fuzz is one of those films where you can watch it 100 times and notice something new every time whilst still laughing ever time. First time I watched this film in the cinema I genuinely had tears rolling down my face when Angel drop kicks the farmer’s mother. This film is probably not only my favourite British comedy but my favourite comedy film full stop. So glad you guys enjoyed it, great reaction. 👍
Did you not recognise Timothy Dalton? James Bond. There are a lot of loved Brtish actors in this and the rest of the Cornetto trilogy. The dirty policewoman is Olivia Colman, who won an Academy Award
You mean galadrial thats who she is 😂
Probably a contender for the best written film ever. Basically every single line or action is a reference or call back, not even an exaggeration. Always new ones to be found as well, this is the first time I’ve noticed that as the hotel owner says “my it seems the heavens have opened” angel walks in.
Ah! Nice!
Agreed.
I get it if you're foreign but will always argue to anyone from the uk that this is the best movie this country has ever produced, if not the world. Top 3 movies ever made easy
The editing is incredible. My boomer mum was in stitches over the gags, the performances, the references, and the cuts 🥲
The film makers assumed they would have to build a supermarket 'set' to stage the final assault scene, but when they contacted the actual 'Somerfield' supermarket, they just said "Yes, no problem". The buiding is still there, but no longer a 'Somerfield'. The city of Wells still get lots of tourists visiting the filming locations.
Downside of living in the area is when you drive past or know exactly where half the stuff is. That Somerfield you mention is the outside is the Blandford Forum one, the inside of the supermarket I have no idea? Tis a Co-Op now.
It's also the one Edgar Wright used to work in as a teenager.
Which has to me the most dream scenario ever.
The CCTV operator was played by Edward Woodward the original Equalizer in the 80s and he was also the lead in the original wicker man ( not the nick cage travesty of a remake) big town cop travels to a small village to work and finds the place full of strange and weird people & things .
He repeats his last words in wicker man in this film.
I remember a guy giving me the advice not to celebrate my 18th birthday at the same pub I'd been going to for the previous two years. 😂
My dad did that!
Fun fact: Peter Jackson (yes, that one) was the Santa who stabbed Angel's hand in the intro. 👍🏼
And Janine was played by Galadriel (aka Care Blanchett, well done Daniel!)
I suspect, although I can't confirm it, that the fist guy Nicholas speaks to, the 'I'm not Janine' guy, was Joe Wilkinson.
Edgar Wright is the man in the garage that Sgt Angel stops at before returning to Sandford.
Plus the village doctor is played by the bad guy from lethal weapon 3, the vicar is played by the bad guy in raiders of the lost ark
@@2old4gamez
He’s not listed on IMDb but the CSI guy called Bob is played by Joe Cornish who is the long standing comedy partner of Adam Buxton AKA Tim Messenger.
The Cornetto Trilogy is a bit like 6th Sense: 1st time is to get the main story, so that the second and third time we watch them - we can auto-pilot the main story and spend that attention on looking for red door handles - all the various bits of foreshadowing, tiny details and innuendo. Superb cast but Olivia Colman is just bloody great in this.
I started frequenting pubs when I was 16. Looking back, it was a controlled environment, you could have a couple of pints with your mates, as long as you were behaving yourselves and not making a scene, it wasn't an issue. In a way, it was part of learning to drink responsibly... which was then completely forgotten about when I went off to uni 😅
Same went to a pub, they told me they knew I was underage but aslomg as I behaved I'd be good, drank there for a good 10 years after that
My dad was a country publican, and he knew that certain customers were under age. But everyone knew everyone else. Their parents knew where they were and they would not be allowed to over indulge. They had to get along with everyone else no matter their age or background and so learnt pub/social etiquette and respect.
Completely normal in the uk 🇬🇧
Yeah, same in Italy, but it's not good.@@suzywhitfield1708
I drank beer in my local village pub, at 16 years old, and the village Bobby ( police officer ) used to say " I hope that's shandy you're drinking" with a wink , and a smile.
Many British churches date back five, six, seven, or eight hundred years plus! Consequently, church roof or restoration appeals are fairly common
And they don't do the American Massive Church thing of telethons or fundraisers for their third jet to get a jaccuzi or whatever.
My childhood local church was (and still is) 1000 years old (Saxon).
Yeah there’s one 5 minutes walk from me that’s from the 12th century
The film is a mirror...every scene at the start is replayed in reverse at the end. It's one of the cleverest scripts ever. Every scene references other films or classic TV or their own other films.
Wow. So many layers
I grew up in the same area as Simon Pegg. This is almost a documentary of our childhood. The best-kept village competition was serious business.
My village is number 1 this year but in wales though I don’t even know how it won but now it’s just full of disappointed tourists
Same
Hello from Gloucester too 👋🏻
Wells rocks! I worked at that shop!! You can see Edgar wright pushing a trolley in one scene x
Yea I know.. And the neighbour hood watch.. So on the button!
Sodding mime artists!
10:22 "18 is crazy"??? 😂 18 is a rather high legal drinking age by European standards. In my country (Austria) for instance it is 16.
And when you are in the company of a legal guardian it is only 14.
P.S.: By the way, you are right. Janine is played by Cate Blanchett. Skinner's henchman is the "Game of Thrones" guy (Rory McCann)🙂
P.P.S.: The "Save the Church Roof" donation campaign absolutely makes sense. As you can see that's a gothic church; probably 800 years old. Well-made shingle replicas aren't that cheap.
18 is the age to be able to buy the drinks yourself but you can have a drink with a meal when younger in public but you can drink what you like at home so it’s fine to give a three year old alcohol
@@proudyorkshireman7708 That's quite an interesting concept! So theoretically (or if I get this right, most likely also in practice) when you are under the age of 18 you can order a couple of drinks with meals and share them with a mate, meaning one will be sufficiently fed and the other one will happily have several pints until you alternate?
18 to own a gun. 21 to drink. Go figure.
@@timtreefrog9646 😁👍
@@tubekulose No, under 18 you can't buy alcohol. However in a pub / restaurant someone over 18 can buy you alcohol to go with your food. No food, no booze.
You guys REALLY need to watch Spaced. Even some familiar faces from other British comedy (including The Inbetweeners) put in appearances there... Reckon you'll have a lot of fun with it.
A cool detail I like about the "777" on his uniform is that it's an angel number (referencing his surname) and that number is linked to self-discovery and personal growth. Which is what he learns more about throughout the movie
also, side note...I grew up in the same village as Simon Pegg and I still live there. He came to my school in 2010 to see some of his old teachers and I got his autograph
I celebrated my 18th birthday at a pub I'd been going to for the previous 2 years. The bartender made a point of asking for my ID on that day and wished me a happy birthday 😂
I only just noticed, when Simon Skinner first shows up the background music bass sounds like “Flash Gordon” Never twigged the reference there.
Skinners background music is always very fitting. After the beheaded actors he listens to „Romeo and Juliet“ by Dire Straits in his car, after the blown up house it’s „Fire“ by Arthur Brown, I believe.
This is definitely the best of the trilogy , in my opinion, and maybe one of my all time favorite movies .
I'm confused as know Shaun of the dead and hot Fuzz and like third? (Only watched hot Fuzz)
@@mlee6050World's End is the third 😊
Ex security officer here. Our rights go like this:- "I'm arresting you on suspicion of ??????, you do not have to say anything but it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned something that you may later rely on in court, anything you do say may be given in evidence".
Ps, it's not a town it's a village which is usually much smaller.
✌️❤️🇬🇧
That I'm a slasher of prizes guy is 2 time James Bond Timothy Dalton.
Old grey guy is bad guy Belloq from Raiders of the lost ark (20:30).
The throwing of a can to catch the thief is a throwback to the first Crocodile Dundee movie. It was also used in an episode of Stargate when Teal'c done the exact same thing!
Church roofing fundraising is a tradition in English villages. I have seen this movie a number of times. A student told me Sean of the Dead was his favorite film and I was curious about the trilogy so watched it, then Hot Fuzz. HF is AMAZING. Such a great script (sooooo many smart/funny lines!), such fine acting, such smart directing, such a good story. Your reactions were good, too.
Probably worth noting that some of European churches are over a thousand years old, as well.
There are some houses that are on church land that are subject to Chancel Repair Liability, meaning that if the local church needs repairs the homeowner is liable for the costs.
Save the Church Roof - most of the old churches here in the UK are hundreds, or even over a thousand, years old. There isn't the same money available via congregations here as there seems to be in the US, plus the actual buildings themselves require expert workmen and renovations. It's not a building from the turn of the 19th Century mostly. It is something either Shakespeare visited, or was there before William the Conqueror came a calling.
It costs a packet to repair, is basically the problem. Even non-Christians help out repairing the oldest churches as they are historical landmarks and parts of a shared history. So you get to see many of these forms of "raise money" situations happening where the community all chips in (with many neighbouring communities helping, most times).
I recommend, Lock, stock and two smoking barrels.
Fun fact: The guy who plays the one of the 2 detectives is Paddy Considine. He's actually a relative of mine, and also he's a film director. If you have seen House Of The Dragon (Game Of Thrones) you will know him as King Viserys. He's a brilliant actor/film maker.
Dead mans shoes, brilliant performance!
@@DjNicksy85 Yes, absolutely!
Billie Whitelaw (who played Joyce Cooper here) was excellent as the nanny (Mrs. Baylock) in the original 1976 film 'The Omen'. While 'Hot Fuzz' was the last film she made, she died seven years later in 2014.
And the krays mum in the 90s krays film.
I like all 3 movies (and like that they use many of the same actors like a theatre company). I must admit that Hot Fuzz is my favourite of the 3.
Oh MY. I never comment. This is the most incredible film. So nuanced and clever. 😊
I have seen 10+ Reactions to this and STILL,I realize new things or references like "Aaron A. Aaronson".
The British Cast is incredible with Top Comedians Steve Coogan and Bill Bailey. Oscar Winners: Olivia Colman and, briefly,Kate Blanchett,.Jim Broadbent, Bill Nighy,Martin Freeman,Edward Woodward,Paul Freeman and all the rest including imon and Nick and "James Bond" Timothy Dalton:)
The Cornetto colours even match the theme.
Shaun of the dead, ♥️, you got red on you.
Hot Fuzz, 💙, boys in blue
World's end, 💚, little green men.
Chaps, our churches tend to be a bit older than yours... the one in the film was built in the 1300s.. it needs a new roof every 200 years or so
Once you guys have seen all of the Cornetto trilogy, I would suggest you also take at the next film with Simon Pegg & Nick Frost - "Paul" - it's about two brits who go on a US road trip - equallay as strong a movie as Hot Fuzz
btw - quick language lesson ... in Britain 'The Fuzz' is a nickname for the police, like "the rozzers", or "the old Bill". Being 'grabbed by the fuzz' could mean someone has caught you by the pubic hair, or it can mean the cops have nicked you
The man dressed as Santa was Peter Jackson of Lord of the Rings fame.
The thing that links all the Cornetto Trilogy movies is that there is always a scene where Simon Pegg’s and Nick Frost’s characters always buy Cornetto Ice Creams.
Yup the company that makes cornettos liked the inclusion of their product in Shaun of the dead, and offered free cornettos at the premiere in thanks, so Edgar and co wrote them into the next two films and it became the cornetto trilogy. Although in World's End we only see a wrapper blow against a fence as Nick Frost looks at it longingly.
@@KevPage-Witkicker Also, the colours of the Cornetto wrappers correspond to the genre of film: Shaun of the Dead's wrapper is red (horror), Hot Fuzz's is blue (police) and World's End's is green (sci-fi).
This has probably been said before but...after World's End, Pegg and Frost do Paul. The pair play a couple of Brits in an RV going to Area 51/Roswell. They meet Paul. It's wonderful :o)
I love Paul, it’s so much fun with a great American comedy actors like Jason Bateman, Bill Hader and it’s really fun.
its PROBIN' TIMe! :P
lololol at the "drinking at 18 is crazy",
most british kids are bored of drinking by 18 :p
Also don't forget about S&N's film "Paul" together, boys (comedy Sci-Fi) - (with some big US names happy to star in that one with them) - after you watch the last of the trilogy "World's End" of course . . .
Spence. SPENCE! At 0:30 you reduced the volume. Mate! Why? Many of us watch you guys whilst doing chores and stuff but laptops have a shit maximum volume so when you reduce output volume from your end, we're screwed! Buddy we can always turn it down our end let us do that rather than not be able to hear it even at full volume. Thanks in advance.
I'm in Ireland and I have never been to a church that wasn't trying to raise money for the roof.
I think 18 is the perfect age for drinking. In those cases people tend to have a better relationship with alcohol later in life. In the US, like you said its a "forbidden fruit" so when people reach 21 they go hard and end up alcoholics, look into further if you're interested, plenty of studies
There is a perfect bit of foreshadowing that you missed. At the funfair with the air rifle range Angel was told “if you take out all the little people you get to waltz off with the cuddly monkey.”
Which is exactly what he did. It’s perfect little bits of dialogue like that, which make this film incredible.
Originally there was going to be a subplot with Simon Pegg's character having a romantic interest, but they cut that and gave a lot of her lines to Nick Frost's character without changing them.
And it was a perfect choice
The 'monkey reference' from Shaun of the dead is actually from a 70s/80s Clint Eastwood film series called Every Which Way But Loose. Worth a watch.
Right turn Clyde:)
No-one has mentioned that the policewoman officer, Doris, is played by Olivia Colman. Oscar winner, Olivia Colman!
I know. Probably the best British actor of the last decade and even played the Queen yet here she is talking about her appetite for a midnight gobble 🤣
@@leonbrooks2107BAFTAs coming out of her arse, too.
4 BAFTAs, three Golden Globes, two Emmys, one Oscar win ... and a partridge in a pear tree.
Ok, that 'partridge' thing was made up.
Didn't Jim Broadbent win an Oscar as well?
Also worth mentioning that Janine is played by Cate Blanchett. They thought it’d be funny to have an A lister play a small role with a face covering. Class act all round😅
@@colinwilson4609Yes, he did. Simon Pegg and Nick Frost must be great blokes to have persuaded this cast to work for next to nothing.
Simon skinner actor Timothy Dalton played James Bond
Completely off topic, I think the two of you would enjoy Paul Whitehouse and Bob Mortimer’s Gone Fishing. It’s not comedy as such, but more a reality type series of films featuring them fishing in various regions of the UK. It has a lot of humour, but is heart-warming at the same time.
Magical tv
the drinking age is 18 in public in uk but u can have drink in private residents a lot sooner
Inbetweeners is the only reason I know the drinking age guidelines in pubs in the UK.
i had a Irish granmother that used give me a couple fluid ounces of Guinness every nite (so i slept though the nite)so started at a young age, funny thing is could not stand the stuff till i was 30ish
5 years old in private residence or party
@@jpw6893 wasn't too sure on age but knew it was young
The posh one in the fancy car is the original frank from the TV program shameless.
Make poverty history...
@@abbu.robinson A good sentiment, but?
@@gavingiant6900 Cheaper drugs now!
Someone ain't seen Shameless (UK) recently :)
@neilrhodes8065 Yea it has been awhile, but the opening scene to all of them. I remember it now. And for some reason I have to use incognito to see your post, youtube is abit messed up still.
Cheaper dr**s now
The fact that they say " its our boy, Bilbo " at Martin Freemans introduction tells me these dudes need to do a ' UK Office ' react. Cuz, that's our boy, Tim, yo. 👊✌
Daniel - If you and your wife introduce yourselves as the Mehoffs... If you're Jack, would that make her Paula? X)
A true masterpiece of comedy genius in every way literally!!!!😅🤣😂😉😊😎👏🙌🙏👍🎉
Felt like it was just yesterday when both Hot fuzz and Shaun of the dead was released...time seriously needs to slow down, and watching these movies just take me back to the days when things were real.
I think you would enjoy "Spaced". It feels like the Cornetto Trilogy but its a TV show, only 3 seasons and you can probably skip #3. Its got Pegg, its got Frost, its got about a million cult film and TV references. What's not to like?
Janine 100% IS Cate Blanchette. Well spotted
Steven merchant wrote and stars in a great series called Outlaws - hilarious based in Bristol so all have a West Country accent.
This is possibly the finest and most tightly plotted film ever made. Pretty much every single line of dialogue in the first half sets up everything that happens in the second. You really need to watch it at least three times to catch all the subtle nuances.
If you want to see some more Stephen Merchant watch the excellent series ‘The Outlaws’. It’s set in Bristol but has Christopher Walken in it!
Since you're watching the IT Crowd, did you recognise haunted Bill Crouse getting his head crushed?
Super reaction, the actor playing Eve Draper (Juliet) is Lucy Punch, of Ella Enchanted, Doc Marten, Into the Woods.
Oh also, we still have money with the queen on, there had only been a release of new £5/10/20/50 notes a few years ago so i don't think they are in a rush to replace them anytime soon. 😂
I love Hot Fuzz, I hope you have fun watching all the famous faces that pop up. Did you spot The Hound?
UK legal age for a drink is 5+ course not actually pissed, it is usually a sip out of others glasses (Xmas etc..)
I think that Simon looks younger because as you deduced he is clean shaven and also between the 2 movies he stared in his first Mission Impossible film where he has said in interviews that he had to get into shape. This allowed him to do the higher physical role of Nicolas compared to that of Shaun in the first Cornetto Flavour Trilogy film. Apparently the first film has red Cornetto (blood/zombies), this one has black (Police) and the final one has green (I won’t spoil what that references).
Blue cornetto = police = original flavour.
Red cornetto = blood = strawberry flavour
Green cornetto = ? = mint flavour
(I won't spoil the green)
"If you want to be a big cop in a small town, fuck off to the model village!" - is the best line, and you didn't react to it! lol
One of my most favourite films. Best of the 3 imo
"The Latin phrase "bonum commune communitatis" chanted by the N.W.A. at the castle, means "for the common good of the community"." - This film is great!
Sue kitt is a personal fav, i think you both are gonna love the last movie of the cornetto trilogy, it sometimes gets some flack compared to the first two but it's still a great movie in itself
Daniel was so pleased with himself when he recognised Rory McCann from Game of Thrones but then called him "The Dog" instead of "The Hound"! lol
Then he didn't recognise David Bradley (Walder Frey) the farmer with all the weaponry and Jim Broadbent (Archmaester Ebrose) the police chief were also in Game of Thrones!
The farmer is Filch and Police Chief is Professor Slughorn from harry Potter as well :D.
@@charleshanney8291 I've only ever watched about 20mins of "Prisoner of Azkaban" so I can't comment on any Harry Potter stuff.
kenneth graham too,,,
This is great, Hot Fuzz and Shaun are two of my British favourites. If you want to venture more into the dark side of British 'Gritty movies' I'd really recommend 'Dead man's shoes' and 'The Kill List' but be warned because they do stick with you and are hard to digest, both excellent though. Also the big 'Yarb Guy' is the same actor who played The Hound in GOT
Thanks for the content guys!
Hott Fuzz and Shaun are two of the best, also Snatch and Lock Stock where two I enjoyed if you've not seen them.
+1 to Dead Men's Shoes!
Gotta go this is england too if you're gonna introduce them to Shane meadows
Dead Man's Shoes was the film that introduced me to Shane Meadows and Paddy Considine. Paddy delivered a stunning performance.
Couldn't agree more, he's a fantastic actor
No luck catching them killers then? 👍
It's Lucy Punch not Catherine Tate. She was in Bad Teacher with Cameron Diaz, along with other films and various TV series.
1:16:10 "i sympathise... I empathise..."
"Trying to eliminate our less, ah..."
[obvious cut]
"late wife"
hahaha nice save
Minor point, Spencer. UK bank notes and coins still have Queen Elizabeth's image. They are not withdrawn from circulation on the death of a monarch. In due course new coins and bank notes will be produced with the image of Charles III, but the old coins will still be legal tender.
There are some in circulation already. I've had two 50 pence pieces, and each time I saw Charles' image it seemed so strange. We'll get used to it.
Jesus H Christ, someone tell Spencer that he's wearing a microphone FFS ................
We still have Elizabeth II currency - Charles III currency hasn’t been issued yet.
it's funny you mentioned the bilbo actor martin, but Santa was played by Peter Jackson. No joke.
So, in the USA, at 18, you can get married, own guns, be in the army, get executed..... but you can't BUY A FKNG BEER IN A BAR.
Actually, bank notes with Elizabeth II don't at all 'date' the film as of late 2023. Bank notes with Charles III are not expected to be in circulation until mid 2024. Even then the notes with Elizabeth II will still be legal tender, likely for quite some years. There is no date set for their withdrawal from circulation.
I believe some coins with Charles' portrait have already entered circulation, I can see a BBC article about 50p coins already released., as well as a full commemorative set which would be legal tender... But highly unlikely to be used! Who buys a full commemorative set for multiple times the price complete with a decorative case and spends it on a packet of chewing gum?🤣Actually... I think I would if I were a millionaire/prankster, just for the lols!🤷
And again, there is no date for withdrawal of the previous coins yet.
I use cash only sporadically, though I do try to with independent retailers (they have to pay surplus bank charges for card payments, so I help them out), and I've not noticed any Charlie coins yet.
"You can't just make people disappear."
"Yes I can. I'm the Chief Inspector."
Lol, movie spoiled in the first scene.
10:30 It's crazy to order a beer at 18, but you can vote for the President, or have a gun? Or an assault rifle? Lmao, man, what are you talking about? By the way, in italy you can legally drink one (and I underline ONE) glass or wine, or beer (no superalcholic) at 16, in a bar.
“Everyone an’ their mums is packing arown ere”.
“Like who”??
“Farmers….. farmers mums”.
As a lapsed catholic, I remember the priests at going on about the CofE always begging for money to fix their empty churches.....2nd biggest landowner in the UK but always got it's hand out for handouts
Whoever helppped them write it had an excellent knowledge of Police Procedure etc. I can remember when I was studying for my Sergeants exam you got a pack where all the scenarios were set in an imagery village/town. You got a whole package of data with the scenarios including a full sized map etc. The name of this town was, Sandford..... The same town as in the film.
42:40

1:01:00
She was spilling all that tea, and Sgt didnt have his notebook to write it down.
He was returning to his car for the notebook when she was stabbed
1:20:00
Farmers, farmer's mums.
You caught some of them, I won't try to point out all of them.
But many of the one liners from the first half are repeated or replayed in the second.
Much like Sean of the dead
I'm from the UK. I just think alcohol isn't really demonised here that much. By the time I got to 18 I'd already woke up pissed in a field with my mates si I didn't really care anymore. Is that good? No but when you demonise stuff it's mire attractive plus if you can go to war at 18, you can make the decision to have half a Guinness. . . . . . . . . . . Or a bottle of cheap wine.
Filmed in and around Wells Somerset a very beautiful small City not far from Glastonbury Johnny Vegas used to live locally i think he moved saw him in a Tea Shop once years ago Not far from Cheddar famous for its Gorge and proper cheese not the runny stuff,.Lovely part of the country i can get there over the Mendip Hills in less than an hour
I visited the US in 1994 to watch the Indy 500, I was 20 at the time, it was weird feeling uneasy drinking in bars as I wasn't old enough to drink, yet I'd been drinking legally in the UK for 2 years!
Great reaction guys 👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Can't wait for you to do "The World's End"!!!!!!
10:54 The only problem with the drinking age being 18 is that you have to be 17 to drive.
So basically they've only just been given a car and now they can legally drink. The gap is too short.
I highly recommend you guys watch Tucker and Dale vs Evil its a hilariously brilliant horror comedy!
In the country we were drinking in the pubs from 13+ it is actually true i was bored of drinking by my 18th birthday 🎉lol
Being overrun by crusty jugglers is not to be taken lightly.
Glastonbury and Wells are lost, pray we can save Bath and Cheddar before its too late.
About the prank call bit...

Did you recognise The Slasher ? Timothy Dalton , 007, Licence to Kill

meet up
Why are you not recognising James Bond? It's James Bond FFS!
You said the money ages the film. I've still yet to have any currency with Charles on it as yet. The Queen is still on most currency in the UK and it will take a few years until the money with the Queen is fully out of circulation.
Steven Merchant is also in Hall Pass, which is quite funny at times. Also, Mr Skinner, the guy who plays the supermarket manager in this film is Timothy Dalton who played James Bond in two movies in the 80's.
HOA is Homeowners Association. As President of mine, I can tell you, we do not go around killing people for the greater good. 😂😂😂
Queen Elizabeth the 2nd is still on the money in 2023 so that doesn't date the film .
