It’s Adam’s Birthday choice, and he’s picked feel-good family favourite “Kill List”. (This is a joke! Seriously, don’t watch this with gran and the kids). A disturbing film from the brilliant Ben W…

10 moments across 6 episodes where Adam, Lee or Chris talk about Michael Smiley.
But he at like at one point they think he's the rat. They've got him locked in but Michael Smiley turns up as a local hitman and they've got him locked in the toilet.
I mean, it's it's mainly just the stuff where Michael Smiley's winding him up and going, well, you know, you're hoping that Jeremy Beadle's going to come out, but he's he's not going to help you, he's dead.
Speaking of Michael Smiley as well with Ben Wheatley.
We also get a more substantial appearance by Michael Smiley as the Reverend Green, who was the Tyre Zombie in Shaun of the Dead.
But there's I mean, the good thing is is that as the repeating of the cast means that we can talk about them as we're going to go through the Cornetto trilogy and stuff like that. But I mean, there's a there's a few notables in there, but I the weirdest thing was going through cuz the zombies, the majority of the zombies were people that they recruited through the website Spaced out, which was like a a fan site for Spaced that was on, I don't think it's being updated anymore, I think it's still there, but but it was like a fan site and loads of they basically got loads of people through to sort of come along and be zombie extras for I think a pound a day. but you know, it was like basically you get the call on you're on the Spaced out website and there's a thing on there saying, right, if you're in London next week and you're not doing anything, do you want to come and be a zombie in our film, fuck yeah. So they got quite a big crowd, but amongst that as I've described them, the celebri dead. you've got Joe Cornish who directed Attack the Block and he's from Adam and Joe. Lucy Akers who is Sophie in Spaced, the one who works for the comics guy in the second series of Spaced. Lauren Laverne from Knicky, Russell Howard, Michael Smiley's in there and is Tyres, he's like dressed as.
Michael Smiley's in it, which is always the guarantee of satisfaction, all right.
It's not as brutal and I think also the difference is in Kill List, there's not really, I mean, Michael Smiley's character is probably the nearest you get to a like a likable character in it.
There's a fucking show with Michael Smiley.
So, Michael Smiley is, so it's all set in Ireland, sort of just for the turn of the century, I believe, and he's a photographer of the dead, so back when people didn't have photographs taken a lot, when somebody died, you would get a photographer in to come and take a photograph of that person often posed with the family so that you have something.
So obviously the head of the local constabulary goes to Michael Smiley as the expert.
