Thanks Be To You

Whether it was Sarah, Sarah's friend, Sarah's friend's flatmate, Amy, Fraggle, Keiran, Lucy, the folk at The Space or the audiences we owe you a very big Thank You to everyone that made Peel This possible.

Here it is in foreign:

A Gi Lewisham

The fourth and final member of our flawsome foursome is A Gi Lewisham.


In Peel This he: was danced at in Intro, wrote Sat Nav, appeared in Actors Gone Rogue, Glasses, Outro and wrote and appeared in Cooker and Mime. He also drew the artwork that adorned the flyer.


A Gi is not a GI. Joe is a GI.

Andy Cartwright

Carruthers crew number three (3) is Andy Cartwright.


In Peel This, he: choreographed and danced in Intro and Drugs, appeared in Actors Gone Rogue, Mime Contest, Headhunter, Sex Therapist, Sat Nav, Outro and wrote and appeared in Mayo, Glasses and Trainspotting.

Andy rhymes with Bandy, Brandy, Candy, Dandy, Gandhi, Handy, Kandy, Mandy, Pandy, Randy, Sandy, Shandy, Tandy and Zandy.

Cartwright doesn't.

David Blackilliams

Second on our list of Carruthering folk is David Blackilliams.


In Peel This he: danced like a loon for Intro, appeared in Actors Gone Rogue, Mime Contest, Glasses, Trainspotting, Sat Nav, held a phone in Headhunter, wrote and appeared in Estate Agent and Sex Therapist, threw sweets at Drugs and took ages to get his head through in Outro.

Michael Everhardy

Let's have a run down of Carruthers Personnel according to the Peel This flyer. Our run down of Carruthers Personnel according to the Peel This flyer begins with Michael Everhardy.

Okra is a plant described by at least one gardener on the internet as "ever-hardy". The internet is a series of computers linked together to send information back and forth and forther.

In Peel This he: danced to Intro, appeared in Mime Contest, Headhunter, Estate Agent, Sex Therapist, Glasses, Trainspotting and Sat Nav, wrote and appeared in Actors Gone Rogue and Drugs , and co-wrote and co-sang Mayo.

Maybe Michael Everhardy is code for Michael Everhard Why?


Why Mike? Why?

Flyer Back

Peel This required a flyer, but the flyer did not require two sides. That was a bonus.

Flyer Front

Peel This required a flyer and a flyer it got. Here is the flyer it got.

Peelhauling

The Peel This tag has come out of retirement.

Briefly.

Peeler No More

Come on in. Have a seat. We need to talk. We've had a good run, but it's time to move on. It's hard to say it. Well the important things always are, aren't they? Time to just bite the bullet and say it. What does that mean? Why would you want to bite a bullet? But anyway the Peel This tag has now been retired. It was good while it lasted but it's been over a year since the show and maybe it's time to stop harping on about it.

Maybe.

God bless you and all who sailed in you.

Rest In Peace Peel This.

The sketches contained within however are obviously still game. If we didn't have those this blog might as well just be pictures of Peter Cushing.

Not much to it, is there?

Not In Service

We regret to inform you that the buses are not running.

Pushing Buttons

Now what's with all that heavy breathing?

Say It With Flowers

Take Your Pick

Mine's the one with the epilepsy inducing pattern and the dubious stains.

Fumble

My guess is a drunken trip on a night bus, but more importantly: if you have to ask...
