COME with us now on a journey through time and space to the world of the Mighty Boosh…

So I heard on the grape vine – well Chris Moyles on his breakfast show – that Noel Fielding and Julian Barratt are in the process of writing a feature-length version of the Mighty Boosh.


Now don’t get me wrong, during my student days the duo were all the rage among the elite who actually knew and understood the humour behind the bizarre world of the Boosh.

I remember finding out about them after a friend pointed me in the direction of a podcast of their radio show.

Now it’s a big fixture on BBC Three and I think possibly BBC 2 but I’ve lost interest of late.

Have you ever loved something so much but as its popularity grows and it becomes so mainstream you fall out of love with it? That is how I feel.

I barely watched an episode of series three, simply tuning into the first few but it does not compare to the originality or comedy genius of the first one, let alone first two.

A big turn off for me was when I was at the after-show party of Might Boosh Live in Stoke-on-Trent two or three years ago. Noel and the rest of the crew were there acting the big I AM because the show was on the up. Very unattractive.

A feature-length film of the Boosh will kill it and it should have stopped at the end of series two on a high.

Take some tips from Ricky Gervais who ended The Office and Extras after the second series (minus a Christmas special or two).

(She sighs reluctantly) They milking it for everything they can get. If they as good as I think they are, they should write new material!
