Garth Marenghi, Dean Learner and Todd Rivers are interviewed about working on Garth Marenghi's Darkplace. Extra from the DVD.
Garth Marenghi's Darkplace is a British dark comedy show made for Channel 4 by Matthew Holness and Richard Ayoade. Darkplace is presented as a lost classic: a television series produced in the 1980s, though never broadcast at the time. The show parodies numerous aspects of '80s low-budget television, including fashion, special effects, production gaffs, and music.
No copyright infringement intended. All copyright remains under Channel 4. I do not own this show at all. This is the wonderful work of writers and creators Matthew Holness and Richard Ayoade.

"I have no truck with snobbery. It's all the same to me, literature, porno, dog-racing..." "Garth makes people who hate reading, read. And they won't read anything good, but they'll read Garth." "I've heard someone refer to it as a harbor. That seems too ornate." "My Mother, God rest her... I mean, she's alive, but let's make sure God helps her get some rest..." "I am personally capable of controlling a car no matter what level of intoxication I'm up to. That's a gift I have. At the moment, the law denies me from exercising that gift." Dean is so hilarious.

The genuis of GMDP is that it was a series within a series. Absolutely worked perfectly to have these interviews. If you look at 'I'm Alan Partridge' in the context of the actual characters narrative per episode, it never worked because it wasn't fly on the wall. This really is a special DVD because the interviews and the narrative over the action is totally relevant to the actors as they are now with their changed perspective looking into the past. Total one off in that respect and dare I say 'genius' again!
