A History of Corners was part of the episode where he talked about the then-new end credit guidelines. Loved that whole bit, especially taking the piss out of people who say words like 'content' and 'solutions' ('like this p****!!').

Someone's posted that whole (excellent) section to YouTube and it's well worth reliving.




And remember, enablement really really does mean vision, and vision, conversely, also means enablement.

Loved that whole bit, especially taking the piss out of people who say words like 'content' and 'solutions' ('like this p****!!'). That was also the episode with the guide on how to work in TV, and because he'd run the credits at the start, at the end he just said something like 'I'll dump you back onto BBC Four' with the BBC Four logo crashing into the screen (if I've remembered that correctly).


Seem to remember it got a later BBC Two showing too, and he'd recorded a "I'll dump you back onto BBC Two" ending as well.
