    Funnily enough I was thinking about Max Headroom today and the “blipvert” thing :?.

    Did anyone watch the other Max Headroom show, set 2 minutes in the future or something with Matt Frewer who played Max Headroom in a live action role. Used to be on through the night on Channel 4 or something.

    EDIT: 1987 – 1988 “In the near future, an intrepid investigative TV reporter does his job with the help of his colleagues and a computerized version of himself.”

    Went to see a few of his shows at Leeds Uni students bar, once waited outside to try and see if it really was Paul Mccartney (that was the daft rumour at the time). Also detoured to Timperley once.

    Who was he?

    Northern humour.

    Sh*te IMO (Frank, not Northern humour in general)

    I never really got this act at all. Just found him irritating.
    Each to their own I guess.
