You are right. I was wrong. DanaC was responsible for that MASSIVE, JUST MASSIVE SPOILER, not Clodfobble.
I apologize for my mistake.

I think this line's mostly filler.

If that happened on the American version, I'd stop watching like a flash. I'm a fan of William H. Macy, but his character can't hold up the show on his own.

owt = 'aught' = anything :P
It's often paired with 'nowt' What's up?owt or nowt? = what's up? aught or naught?

I think of it as "aught," the opposite of "naught."

Neither nowt nor summat, as Barbara of Bab's Cabs says.
BTW my colleague was going through word recognition today and marked as incorrect a pupil who said "Are" for "Our". I pointed out to her afterwards that most of the children in our class do this, it's not confusion but accent. You can hear it when they say the Lord's Prayer.

Newer Roku units have subtitling, the older ones don't.

Dave channel have taken on the show Red Dwarf. A year or so ago they made a three part special, reuniting the original cast. Now they're about to air the first full series of new Red Dwarf eps since 1999.
I used to love the Dwarf when it first started. But by the third or fourth series I'd dropped off it (19/20 years old). I've seen odd ones of subsequent series, but not really followed the story. But, I really did used to love it. So, the last couple of years as they've been running old ones on Dave, I've loosely reconnected with the show. It's dated at times, and some of the jokes are very timebound, but a lot of it still works I think. Anyways. here's a classic clip. Lister (the only surviving human crew member of Red Dwarf), is attempting to teach Kryten the service android how to lie. And a Top Ten bits vid someone put together:

This current series of Inspector Gently has been really good. I haven;t watched the final one yet, but if it's anywhere near as good as the other three I'm in for a treat :P
They've had some cracking guest stars this series. Lenora Chrichlow as a geordie lass. That was fun. And of course, the ever wonderful Mark Gatiss. He has such screen presence. Really nicely understated performance. And the scenes with him and Gently were marvellous.

Watching that ep of Gently right now.
He is wonderful, it's true. Hence the Gatiss Gap (although this is more than a cameo). Caught a continuity error already, which always pleases me. Pedant that I am, yes. Shot of M Gatiss turning to face his wife, no glasses, no movement of hands to face. Shot of M Gatiss from wife's perspective - glasses on. Naughty. Am really enjoying the twists and turns of the story, but probably won't watch again, just because of the time commitment.
