I do love this show. It's very cute and funny. My fave episode has to be the Gay Musical.

One of the characters on 'The IT Crowd' was based on me.

When the first series was being written, I worked for the production company, FremantleMedia, and a researcher came around to the IT department and spent quite a long time chatting to various people, including me.

That's my little claim to fame.

Goth friends went to see the second series being filmed, and were asked if they'd like to meet Noel Fielding, the actor who plays Richmond. One of them replied "Nah, it's alright - we know the guy his character was based on". PUT DOWN OR WHAT!

So, a big Cradle of Filth fan are we???


When I saw the Mighty Boosh live, someone in the audience shouted out "Richmond"- Noel Fielding rounded on him saying "Is that your thing? Going to comedy gigs and shouting out random towns in Surrey?"

About 5 minutes later (and midway thru a sketch) he stopped and went "Oh, now I get it. Richmond was a guy I played in a thing".
