The Fast Show/Tear Jerker

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Tear Jerkers in The Fast Show include:

  • The sketch where Rowley Birkin talks about the only woman he truly loved who he lost due to his drinking and only utters his catchphrase after an long agonising pause
    • And the slow zoom-out at the end instead of the usual jumpcut to the next sketch. Usually the catchphrase results in audience laughter - this one got a round of applause. And very well deserved it was too.
