That Mitchell and Webb Look

''That Mitchell and Webb Look'' is a British television sketch show starring David Mitchell and Robert Webb. Shown on BBC Two since 2006, its first two series were directed by David Kerr, who also directed Mitchell and Webb's previous television sketch show ''The Mitchell and Webb Situation'', whereas the third and fourth series are directed by Ben Gosling Fuller. As well as Mitchell and Webb themselves, the writers include Jesse Armstrong, James Bachman, Sam Bain, Mark Evans, Olivia Colman, Joel Morris, John Finnemore, and others. It is produced by Gareth Edwards. Colman, Bachman, and Evans were also members of the cast, alongside Gus Brown, Sarah Hadland, and Paterson Joseph.
Many of its characters and sketches were first featured in the duo's radio show ''That Mitchell and Webb Sound''. First aired on 14 September 2006, a second series was commissioned later that same year and shown between 21 February and 27 March 2008. The third series began on 11 June 2009. Since the second series, the production has also been broadcast on BBC HD. The first series won a BAFTA award in 2007. The third series started airing on BBC America on 14 April 2010. The fourth series premiered on BBC Two and BBC HD on 13 July 2010 with a total of 6 episodes commissioned by the BBC. In a November 2011 interview, Webb stated that there are no plans for another series and added that "you'd have to ask the BBC" about further series.
==Recurring sketches==
''That Mitchell and Webb Look'' includes many recurring sketches, or sketches with recurring themes, including:
*''Numberwang'': A game show hosted by Robert Webb, where two contestants, Simon and Julie (Paterson Joseph and Olivia Colman) shout out numbers until "Numberwang" is declared by the host. Props such as trampolines are used in some rounds. The final round is titled "Wangernumb", where the contestant's podia are rotated in a full revolution, briefly revealing a non sequitur on the other side of the wall. One contestant (nearly always Simon) is declared the day's champion, while the losing contestant suffers varying consequences such as being stuffed into a cardboard box or arrested by the police.〔
:Other sketches feature media based around the ''Numberwang'' franchise, such as ''Wordwang'', an advertisement for a ''Numberwang'' board game or documentary of the show's history.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=BBC - Comedy - That Mitchell And Webb Site - Numberwang )
*Ted and Peter: a pair of alcoholic, chain-smoking snooker commentators and retired players. Ted Wilkes is played by David Mitchell and Peter DeCoursey by Robert Webb. They tell insensitive stories about the players, bringing up things such as one player's attempts at suicide, rather than focusing on the game (other than Ted's occasional comment of "That's a bad miss!"). They also drink heavily, handing each other pitchers of beer or drinking shot after shot throughout the sketch.
*''Mitchell and Webb'': a supposedly "behind-the-scenes" look at how the show is produced, starring Mitchell and Webb as themselves. Although ostensibly involved in the production of the programme, the pair are frequently drawn into furious arguments with one another.
*''The Surprising Adventures of Sir Digby Chicken Caesar'': a drunken, drug-addled psychotic tramp played by Robert Webb, who seems to be under the delusion that he is a brilliant and intrepid secret agent or adventurer. He and his companion Ginger, played by David Mitchell, commit various crimes whilst supposedly engaging in battle against the henchmen of their so-called "nemesis". SnorriCam is used in parts of the sketches. The sketches usually include Sir Digby Chicken Caesar singing along, off-key and off-rhythm, to the tune of "Devil's Galop" from the BBC radio series Dick Barton, composed by Charles Williams, often mid-escape from a potentially contentious situation.
*''Big Talk'': a debate show hosted by the confrontational Raymond Terrific (Robert Webb), who loudly bullies his panel of so-called "boffins" into giving yes or no answers to huge social and philosophical questions (e.g. "is there a god?").
*''The Quiz Broadcast'': a post-apocalyptic television quiz show hosted by Mitchell and transmitted by the British Emergency Broadcasting System. Participants on the show are the survivors "trying to enjoy themselves" whilst avoiding any traumatic memories of the Event; Peter (a blind character played by Webb), Sheila, and Unknown Male 282. The phrase "Remain indoors" is often repeated by the host or displayed on-screen at random points throughout the programme.
*Friends Of...: two housemates, played by Mitchell and Webb, discussing whom to invite to their next party — usually fictional characters or historical figures.
*''The British Broadcasting Corporation'': an old-fashioned black-and-white broadcast, set at a time when television is a very recent invention.
*Barry Crisp: Crisp (Mitchell) runs a range of unsafe attractions, such as charging £2 to jump off a cliff. His customer (Webb) is oblivious to the obvious danger of these stunts and agrees to pay to take part in them, to Crisp's surprise.
*The Honeymoon's Over: Mitchell plays a rude, mean, condescending, posh man who has replaced a staff member in various jobs (such as waiter or vicar). He angrily demeans his customers (Webb and Colman), trying to make them feel uncomfortable.
*''Get Me Hennimore!'': a parody of 1970s sitcoms, each episode featuring the nervous Hennimore (Webb) being given two important tasks by his boss (Mitchell), which are easy to confuse: for instance, they may be based around two organisations with identical initials. The sketches always end with Hennimore mixing the tasks up and the boss shouting "Hennimore!" angrily.
*''The Helivets'': a sketch parodying TV shows following the Emergency Services, the Helivets claim they can rescue any pet in peril; however, the pets are all dead by the time they arrive.
*Lazy Writers: two script writers, John Gibson (Webb) and Andrew Turner (Mitchell) give an interview for their latest programme, which they did not bother to research. Short clips from the show — for instance, a hospital drama or court scene — are shown after the interview.
*Arguing Couple: a couple who talk to their baby daughter in cutesy voices about the problems in their relationship, breaking off to snarl "Up yours!" at each other and make violent hand gestures. The couple and their daughter are played by Robert Webb and his real life wife and baby daughter.
*Small Office: Mitchell plays a boss who has conversations with his employees in his tiny office, which makes it difficult to discuss the matter in hand.
*Didldidi: a series of adverts promoting discounted but obviously disgusting or low-quality products being sold at the supermarket chain Didldidi.
*A Prayer and a Pint: a show hosted by Donny Cosy (Mitchell), set in various locations and featuring Cosy giving a short description of the place he is in, followed by him drinking a pint and singing a hymn.
*Wacky History: a wacky historian (Webb) tries to make history exciting through absurd, often unrelated props.
*Sensitive Freak-shows: adverts for various documentaries, which show people with ridiculous deformities. The narrator repeatedly comments that the documentary seems sad, but viewers only watch to laugh at the people with the absurd problems.
*Unexplained Gestures: a director struggles to film an actor who repeats odd gestures or out-of-context phrases without being aware of it.
*Top Secret Government Conspiracies: a series of sketches where three government agents discuss plans to carry out popular conspiracy theories —the Death of Princess Diana, the fake moon landings and the suppression of alien contact — while inadvertently pointing out the flaws in such plans.
