  • Summary

  • Matt and Luke head back to 1999, more specifically May 1999 to review 4 shows debuting that month. They look at the first couple of episodes of Season two of South Park which began on Channel 4 in May as well as examining the phenomenon around the animated hit at that time. They also watch Channel 4 drama Physcos which looked at life in a psychiatric unit. Then, also on Channel 4, they watch Geri - a documentary which followed Geri Halliwell in the immediate aftermath of her departure from The Spice Girls. The documentary charts her struggle to find a purpose after leaving the group and was a properly fascinating look at a different kind of stardom. Finally, they watch Sir Bernard's Stately Homes, a 10-minute mockumentary fronted by a very young Matt Lucas and David Walliams and directed by a young up-and-comer named Edgar Wright. Luke is tested on his music knowledge with a chart from May of 1999.
