Reece Shearsmith on The League of Gentlemen, Inside No. 9 & The Mighty Boosh | TalkBox Ep.70

Reece Shearsmith joins Rich Fulcher on TalkBox for a proper trip down memory lane! The pair first met at the Edinburgh Fringe in 1997, and three decades later they're back together talking about the shows, people and strange turns their careers have taken since. Reece talks about The League of Gentlemen, including what he thinks was the secret ingredient that made the show work so well, and the incredible journey of Inside No. 9, which eventually ran for nine series. They also get into The Mighty Boosh, with Rich remembering how the original radio series helped get the show onto television, plus Reece's upcoming book tour, collecting things, old Fringe memories and plenty of other bits from their shared comedy history. And, naturally, there is time for some TalkBox nonsense along the way. 📚 Reece's book tour: https://www.fane.co.uk/reece-shearsmith 👻 Follow Reece:   / reeceshearsmith_   Support TalkBox To Keep It Independent 🟠 Patreon Supporters Gain Early access episodes, sneak peeks, live updates & more:   / richfulcherstalkbox   ☕️ Buy Us A Coffee To Support Too: https://buymeacoffee.com/talkbox 👕 MERCH IS HERE!
