Yeah, that's what I meant - I figured he was probably actually smart (haven't seen him in anything else) but playing dumb for laughs, and that's just something that grates on my nerves. Maybe I'll have to check out some of the other stuff he's been in.
I'd been fascinated with the idea of Welsh ever since reading the Dark is Rising books when I was probably 9 or 10, but never even heard anybody with a Welsh accent until Brydon. I frankly have no idea why that is.
I've seen bits and pieces of NMTB. Mainly I've watched episodes that people I'd heard of were in, lol. Haven't just watched it all the way through or anything. From having seen it, I don't think I'm a big fan of Noel Fielding (I dunno, something about him creeps me out a llittle?), but I'm not sure how much of that is because he replaced Bill Bailey as a team captain (because I quite enjoyed Phill and Bill on the show). But I've never seen anything else he was actually in, so maybe I'd like him better in other stuff.
