Critical Diary Entry - The Mighty Boosh, Episode 6, Charlie Animation

I’m a big fan of BBC’s comedy series ‘The Mighty Boosh’. It’s got quite a unique style with an off-the-wall script which is delivered brilliantly by the main men, Noel Fielding and Julian Barratt. The episode that sticks out to me is the one where Vince (Noel Fielding) manages to publish his story about a fictional character made out of bubblegum named Charlie. We see a short animation come from nowhere with Vince’s voice over narrating. I love the fact there is no point to it, it is completely random yet the idea of using the animation is very clever because as you watch it along with the voice over, you can imagine that this is what goes on inside the head of the strange character that is Vince Noir!
