Christmas is coming and the goose is getting fat... BANG BANG BANG BANG is the sound of the goose falling down the stairs. 

Thanks to everyone who said something nice about Mr Biffo's Found Footage. Work is already underway on next year's full series. If you can give the Christmas special a plug - please do. The more people we can get to watch it, the more chance there is of futher stuff like this happening in the future.

Onwards!

For the first time ever, Digitiser2000's Friday Letters Page will feature a Star Letter. The winner of the prestigious honour will receive a prize, donated by Digitiser2000 reader Bunty McSad-Pants. She calls it "Monsieur Le Fantôme". This is what it looks like.

FPS I LOVE YOU
I can't recall reading about your history with FPS games at all. If I did I probably forgot it, because on occasion I forget what I'm doing in day to day life. No big deal.

So I picked up Titanfall 2 mostly on your recommendation, and because giant robots are something that the small child in me is very much down with.

Anyway... robots are yay, and having played a bit of multiplayer last night I quite enjoyed it. One thing that I find weird about modern FPS games (T2 included) is cooldown timers on stuff like grenades. My character can magically create grenades from nowhere simply by waiting. Weird.

Playing Halo back in the day, running around desperately trying to stock up on plasma grenades from the corpses of the fallen, to try and get past a later section, is very much set in my mind as a struggle that you endured. Now I get them for free?

One worse is Overwatch, which I played last weekend because it was free. It feels like babby's first FPS for many reasons; a cooldown timer on your abilities and never ending ammo for a start. What changed in FPS games that the developers decided that having all your shit at the start of a match is the way things should be done, and the ability to never run out of ammo nor pick up weapons from the floor is better somehow?

I want to struggle, because then it feels oh so much sweeter to annihilate fools online. In Halo 2, trying to control power weapons, and pursue objectives whilst switching out weapons on the fly, is some of the best gaming of my life. Overwatch gives everything to you and also takes everything away by not giving you options.

Anyway, never-ending grenades would be a pretty great band name but what genre should we play?
That guy that spent far too much time crying with laughter whilst Yakkety Sax played through proximity talk on Halo 2 on CTF
Overwatch is good... but... I dunno. I didn't love it - and it might be for some of the reasons you state. I think I like a FPS best when it feels real, and Overwatch is like a cartoon.

It's the same reason I could never get into Timesplitters back in the day, despite everyone heralding it as totes amazeballs. But that's more about the aesthetic for me, than regenerating grenades. They just feel like a convenience. Or did. Now you've drawn my attention to them, you've ruined games for me completely. Thanks a lot, man.

EERIE ELEISON DOWN THE ROAD THAT I MUST TRAVEL
Now then. Following a lucky find in a charity shop, I've been introducing my kids to one of the best tv shows from my youth, Eerie Indiana. Having watched a few episodes with them, I'm amazed by two things...

1. How good it still is, some 20 years later.
2. That it ever got commissioned in the first place.

So, what's the weirdest kids tv show that you've ever seen, or know of being rejected for being too out there, or that failed to get commissioned following a pilot?

Enjoying the Scripts of my Years pieces muchly, by the way.
Hamptonoid 
I... don't know. We did some pretty mad stuff in Dani's Castle. Series 2 was the high point. We had Professor Brian Cox in an episode, where he showed one of the characters around a "Large dugong collier". My favourite ep was one called Use Your Noodle.

I'm generally not privvy to things that have been rejected, other than my own things - and most shows I've pitched have tended to at least not sound too weird, because commissioners like to know what they're getting, and weirdness scares them off. Also: it's rare for kids' TV to do a pilot, due to the lower budgets. They tend to commission series off the back of a script. Or scripts.
MOORE THE MERRIER
Might you ever go on a travel adventure with Tim Moore? And then write a book together? Or perhaps write a book each on the same journey.

Do you think the future of entertainment lies with crowd funding as traditional television grows ever less relevant? Personally I'd love to opt out of the license fee and give that money to creators who actually entertain me.

Thank you for Scripts of my Years, wonderfully written, nostalgic and enlightening. Can't wait for the book.
Glyn Heaviside
Cheers, Glyn. One more instalment of it left - though much was left out, to be fleshed out in the book. I can't imagine Mr Hairs and I would ever write a travel book together, because... why would he? He's doing perfectly well on his own. 

After Digitiser, we did go away together a few times. Including to a beer festival in Stockholm, and the Munich Beer Festival for two days that felt like a week.

The highlight of this latter trip was the two of us becoming "disorientated" and losing one another in the sea of drunks. We eventually reconnected after spotting each other on opposite sides of a bumper car ride - and inexplicably decided to cross over. The cars started up, and we were simultaneously knocked over, each ending up clinging to the front of two separate bumper cars. They had to stop the ride to eject us.

This sounds like something that would be made up, or written for a Mr Bean movie. Incredibly, it actually happened.


It's not exactly cycling the Iron Curtain.

EAR, NOSE & THROAT
As befits my ent-like age, I am becoming increasingly irritated at the demise of my gaming powers, especially in the FPS department. I'm looking at you, reflexes & hand-eye coordination. So I've eschewed Battlefield 1's ludicrous charms for the last week (to help me calm down) and gone retro.

Whilst it is fair to say that 80s games were the hardest ever, they mainly had a joystick and a couple of buttons to contend with. The advent of Street Fighter 2 with its dizzying six buttons was a death knell for me. Moreover, the games of my youth could be dipped into for twenty minutes a go, in between your paper round and riding your BMX. A game of Operations on BF1 is an hour long!

Given the likelihood of a return to those halcyon days, I will officially retire from current generation gaming now. Another death in 2016.... shocking. An arcade cabinet will be the only gaming investment I will be making in 2017, thank you.

Slippers on. Check. Back into the bath chair. Check.

Sorry to have troubled you.
​Craig
If it's any consolation, I was always terrible at beat 'em ups. I never really got the hang of the special moves thing. Plus, it never seemed to me that there was any real benefit to using the special moves, other than them just looking pretty. Button mashing seemed to win out as often as someone repeatedly triggering Chun-Li's "Spinning Bird Kick". Or as 1990s teenage boys knew it: "Seeing a bird's knicks".
DIVERSITY OF ANGELS
Please help. I have written a short script about Britain's Got Talent winners Diversity, in which they save a youth club from demolition through street dance. I have sent a copy to Simon Cowell but he has ignored it, although I know he has seen me because I am looking at him right now through his windows. Do you have any advice or do I have to have a decade experience in writing?

WILLY OR WON'T HE?
Do you have any hilarious stories of Christmas parties at Teletext HQ? Did anyone show you their willy? Did you show anyone your willy? Yours in Christ,
Malcom Malcomson
Never saw anyone's willy at a Teletext event. Though I remember one Christmas party on HMS Belfast, where I had a wee next to the then-editor, and telling him I'd accidentally worn odd socks (one was black, one was very dark blue). He thought this was hilarious, and said - I quote - "I am never going to forget that". I bet he has. Unless he went home and wrote it down.

The only other Teletext Christmas bashes I recall were one where they hired a sort of travelling casino and a terrible up-close magician, and another - after I had left - at Sanctuary Spa in London, which had featured in the "erotic" movie The Stud. Even then: no willies.
RUTHLESS MADOC
This December 1st, I partook of your Found Footage Chrimbo Special, and found it to be ruthlessly entertaining. Over the course of December, I look forward to viewing the remaining 23 daily installments. Great work on this surprise new "Advent Video" style feature!

PS. I can't fail to notice you have not advertised this Advent Video feature very thoroughly. Please correct this oversight.

GIGGLING-A-DING-DONG
Last night I watched the Found Footage Christmas Special, and consequently lost a lot of sleep. Not because the Lynchian weirdness gave me nightmares, but because I couldn't get 'Sexy Christmas USA' out of my head, and I kept waking up, giggling like an idiot.

It's a wonderful show, even better than I imagined it would be. I was grinning from ear to ear and crying with laughter through every minute of the first episode, and felt very proud seeing my name in the 'Datablast' credits at the end. Without doubt this will be the best Christmas present I get this year. Thanks Mr Biffo, you lunatic.
Matthew Long
On the whole, the response to the Found Footage special has been so positive that I'm now fearing the inevitable backlash. The trouble with making something that is - wilfully - not for everyone, is that those on the outside get annoyed. Not least when they're surrounded by those who "get it", which effectively tells them they're "wrong".

A few of you have mentioned that it was better than you'd expected. You gave me £18k on Kickstarter (well, closer to about £8k once Kickstarter and HM Government have taken their cut). You'd lynch me if I turned in something half-arsed.

​Besides, I needed to do the Xmas one as a kind of pilot/dry run, to try and teach myself Final Cut Pro, and assorted other techniques. 
SURREAL LIFE
Thanks for making the Xmas edition of Mr Biffo’s Found Footage that gives us a glimpse of what is to come in the six episodes funded by fans of surreal, often disturbing material.

If anyone other than your good self presented me with this woozy, demented fever dream, I would politely finish the arielator of tea they’d made me and back out of their house while I still could. 

It makes me wonder, do you walk around day-to-day with stuff like this floating about in your head? 

I’d imagine if Dali was still alive to witness this, he’d say “It’s a bit weird, innit?”, but maybe in Spanish and in quite a croaky voice, cos he’d be about 112 by now. 

Anyway, thanks again and keep up the odd work. 
Kara Van Park
I suppose I do walk around with that stuff floating in my head, as that's where it comes from. The challenge with Found Footage is trying to put it in some sort of coherent - or semi-coherent - form.

Often it'll be a name or a word, or an image, that just pops into my head... and I'll build from that. Like the Sexy Christmas USA video; I had the image of someone dressed as an 80s rocker, waving an American flag, and crawling around in the woods. Comedy gold, eh?

Found Footage is meant to feel like a stream-of-consciousness. It's like with the book I did years ago - Confessions of a Chatroom Freak - where the conversation transcripts were about as pure unfiltered thought as it's possible to get.

Found Footage isn't quite that raw, but that's what I want it to feel like, the way thoughts can jump around from one thing to the next. A collage of stuff that shouldn't necessary fit next to one another. Things which kind of look familiar... but aren't once you pay attention to them. 

That's probably over-explaining it all.

That said, believe it or not, there is an underlying theme or idea to Found Footage. If you want that. I mean, if you don't... you can just take it for what it is: oddness.  
SHOE ARE YOU...? SHOE-SHOE! SHOE-SHOE!
When I was younger I used to spend Saturday mornings at my granddad's shoe shop in Nottingham. He'd sell second-hand shoes and perform repairs. One day he had me standing outside the front of the shop trying to sell shoes to passing customers. You have to bear in mind that I was only about five years old at the time.

Some old woman came by and started looking at the wares. When she asked me the price of a pair (I can't remember what it was now, but it was in the pence) she threw the shoes right at me, splitting my lip. I ran out to the back yard of the shop to rinse the blood from my mouth (there was no working indoor plumbing) only for a moth to fly into my gaping mouth.

This has happened to me twice now with moths; the second time it happened was when I was walking back from university one cold evening enjoying a hot sausage roll. I hate those dusty buggers.

I was going to write to you about how much I've enjoyed your articles about The Scripts Of My Years, but the moth thing still troubles me to this day. Even worse, my granddad thought I'd just been pratting around all morning in the back yard, playing in the dirt and broken bricks. Ah well.

I am fit and strong and that is all.

Am I the only one who thinks Gaming Mill really needs a blog?
VR YOUR FRIENDS
After using PlayStation VR for the first time, I can say that it is an extraordinary experience. The danger of the technology really hit me as well, though. Once graphics improve, possibly combined with haptic feedback, people won't want to come back to real life.

​I think it's possible that one day the long-term unemployed will be given VR sets to numb their existence and to keep them out of trouble. Usually I am not in favour of tight regulation but people should be careful with VR technology applications.

How much, if at all, are you looking forward to The Last Guardian?

Do you have any characters in computer games that everyone else seems to love but that you dislike? For example, HK-47 in KOTOR; I think 'he' is the worst character in it, but people think he's great!
John Whyte
Hey - it's John "Three Letters In One" Whyte.

I'm looking forward to The Last Guardian quite a bit. I just hope it's not boring.

Characters that everyone loves that I dislike? I think the new Lara Croft is pretty weak and dull, despite many people holding her up as a beacon of female empowerment. She's just so dour, and I don't have any sense of who she is as a character.

​Which is fine - I've no clue who Mario is either - but if you're going to go to the effort of giving her a backstory, I would've appreciated a little more effort to make her engaging as a character. That seems to me the best way to empower her.
STAR LETTER!!!
I once watched a man who, after stopping to talk to another man, stepped in his own dog's poo. What's the funniest thing you've witnessed taking place in public?
Stuart Lindsay
Uh... I dunno.

Though you have reminded me of a game I used to play with my friends. We'd fill a plastic bag with sloppy food - like yoghurt and bakes beans and stuff - then wrap it in another bag, and then tie a bunch more bags around it as a sort of tail. Then we'd go out into the street down the side of my parents' house, whirl it around our heads, and throw it at one another.

With all the weight, and the tail, it really flew. Gradually, the bag would split, and one of us would end up covered in the sloppy food.

One time, I flung the bag a bit too hard, and it missed my mate and hit a passer-by - who had his hands in his pockets, which somehow made it all the funnier - in the head. Suffice to say, I ran away immediately, making it look as if my mate had taken it upon himself to throw a bag of food at a complete stranger. Thus ensued an altercation that - from my hidden cranny - became funnier the more angry it became.

Oh - apropos nothing, you win this week's Star Letter prize. Do you actually want it? It's a burger box with some eyes stuck on, or something.

Good god! Is that really how much money you were left with?? I'm glad so many of us were able to contribute, I wouldn't like to think how you would have had to cope on the 5p that would have been left if you'd only made the 3500.

I thought the Christmas Found Footage was awesome - the Protect and Serve segment and your George Michael impression were quite disturbing - thankfully Sexy Christmas USA has nullified the earworm my damaged brain created out of the name Flancy C Bong to the tune of Bossa Nova.

No...wait.. ah.. Now I have two earworms. Sigh.

Well, it's all percentages - KS's share and the government's - so it's not like I'd have had to give over as much if I'd only have made £3,500. But yeah... alas... the £18k is somewhat misleading.

Incidentally, Mr Hairs did the bulk of Protect and Survive, so as you can imagine I hate that it seems to be everyone's favourite bit. I just changed the music and some of the sound effects. And added the ending with the "stay there" bit grinding down, and when Thug Life Santa appears.

I'm watching the Found Footage Christmas Special thing now and it's quite good. It's reminding me a little bit of Wonder Showzen, which is obviously a good thing. I'm glad you're wired up all wrong, Biffo, because I like weird things and I don't know how to make TV. Thanks!

2/12/2016 11:43:19 am

I love Wonder Showzen, though oddly... I didn't even think about it when I was doing FF. Thought about it a lot during the making of Biffovision, though - and the influence must surely still be there. It's hard to reach that level of almost-unwatchable madness in the UK. Especially in comedy, British TV plays it so safe. There's no real acknowledgement of the hunger for really, really out-there comedy. When was the last show which broke the rules like that? Probably Jam.

Wonder Showzen, especially in the later episodes, was incredibly brave - almost as if they were trying to drive away the audience. An absolutely incredible TV show. If I can get Found Footage to within even a mile of what they achieved, I'll be happy.

It's specifically the Goujon John bit, I think, where it starts pleasantly (ish) and then gets darker, and deliberately goes on for longer than is comfortable. That's my jam, Holmes.

There was that Noel Fielding thing on E4, I watched one episode of and didn't like.

I enjoyed the Found Footage Xmas Special, although I did alternate between laughing and exclaiming, "wtf?!". Marvellous.

Mr Biffo
2/12/2016 12:32:23 pm

Hmm. I liked early Boosh... Does it break the rules of comedy though? I'm not sure it does. I mean, it's weird and surreal, and unique, but I don't know how challenging it actually is.

Alternating between laughter and "WTF?" was exactly the response I'd hoped for. Yay!

Chris
2/12/2016 12:46:29 pm

Ah, no, I didn't mean Boosh (I liked that too). Some years later Noel did something else which was more of an incoherent surreal comedy, rather than a sitcom. It was called "Luxury Comedy", I've just looked it up.

I'm not sure I'd call it groundbreaking, but as I said I only watched one episode and didn't get on with it, but I do recall it being largely a steam of utter nonsense.

Mr Biffo
2/12/2016 12:50:34 pm

Ah, yeah - I knew what you meant. I watched some of Luxury Comedy, but didn't like it as much as Boosh.

Stuff I see as really genre-breaking (in the UK at least) was Python, Milligan, The Young Ones, then - really - I can't think of another one until Chris Morris came along. It's probably telling that he doesn't do much these days. That's not to say we've not produced great comedy - I'm specifically talking about stuff which rips up the rulebook. Most of it seems to come from the US, or the Internet these days.

Goujon Cook
2/12/2016 07:36:48 pm

The way I think about Luxury Comedy is to imagine a comedy partnership wherein one member was much cleverer and funnier than the other, but when the more talented one took some paternity leave, the less funny one tried to do material in a similar vein and failed miserably. I think the reason it makes me think of that is because that's exactly what happened.

The Boosh was funny when the banter just flowed. The surrealism was forced and a bit cringy, especially in later series when they hadn't had chance to refine the ideas through radio/live shows. Luxury comedy was exactly what goujon cook said. And shit.
Jam was great! I remember watching it in shocked silence and then gradually laughing about it for days, until the next episode.

And you're being too hard on yourself, Mr Biffo. I'm sure even if the full series was only half as good as the brilliant Christmas special we'd still be in for a treat. But I've got every confidence that it'll be terrific. I can't wait!
