Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? - The Peter Serafinowicz Show
Комедия
With the new series of Jeremy Clarkson's Who Wants To Be A Millionaire airing this evening, take a look back at Peter Serafinowicz's wonderful parodies of the classic gameshow. One is a spin off of the original format, and asks only one question: Heads Or Tails. The other imagines what the show might have looked like during World War II.

Serafinowicz is a genius. Not necessarily the single funniest show in the world, but truly unique.

He really does have a distinctive (and amazing) style. First of all it's his impersonations, that sometimes are really mindblowingly good. My second favourite are his commercial (which are also parody impersonations I guess)

The only improvement Peter could make is to introduce each segment with "TAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY!"
When she says "Fucker" as they go for a break.
Her being ever so slightly pissed off at the 'tails in your tail' joke is gold

I really enjoyed the soothing sounds of Perry Rodgers. I’m Going To Kill Myself is a timeless classic.

Heads or Tails was turned into a real show in 2009 or 2010. Peter does a perfect Chris Tarrant, but doesn't overdo the voice. Even right down to the face he pulls and the way he leans back. He gets everything right including the joke about the unintelligent looking audience.

Of course, in the Olden Days the contestant either knew the answer or not. That's the real contrast between then and now; either a) answering the question in two seconds and being told straight away whether they were right or wrong or b) dragging everything out for ten effing minutes. "Join us after the break".

To all who ask the reason why Serafinowicz isn’t in the spotlight more, it is because he is darkly satirical in a way that most mainstream comedy isn’t. It would undermine the establishment if he were able to mock it to the public too much. See also Peter Cook.
