Peter Curran and Patrick Marber's stream of semi-conciousness touches on Tolkien, Tom and Jerry, guilty siblings, and whether the band Napalm Death are as good as Shakespeare.
Two men in darkness, sharing a bunk bed and a stream of semi-consciousness about family, relationships, work and imagined life.
We all crave a place where our mind and body are not applied to a particular task. The nearest faraway place from daily life. Somewhere for drifting and lighting upon strange thoughts which don't have to be shooed into context, but which can be followed like balloons escaping onto the air. Late at night, in the dark and in a bunk bed, the restless mind can wander.
After an acclaimed reception by The Independent, The Sunday Telegraph, The Observer and Radio 4 listeners, Bunk Bed returns with its late night stream of semi-concsciousness.
In this episode, under cover of darkness, the bedfellows touch on Tolkien, Tom and Jerry, Jewish v Irish names, guilty siblings, and whether the band Napalm Death are as good as Shakespeare.
Elsewhere in the series, Patrick and Peter deal with therapy, Chas and Dave, children's happiness, Babycham, Aldous Huxley, and correction fluid - among a ragbag of subjects.
