Pure genius
marc-slater30 September 2006
When the episode started i thought i was on the wrong channel, the series within a series is pure genius. After the depressing but essential second episode this episode was surely going to be a cracker, and it was. Daniel Radcliffe(Harry Potter) was superb as the typical 17 year old boy, trying to play it cool with the ladies. Then there was the down syndrome incident which Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant are so good at, i was squirming with embarrassment and shouting at the TV begging them to stop. Andy Millman is fast becoming as iconic as David Brent, two characters who really aren't that different from each other. Both with hearts of gold and dreams of reaching the top. After three episodes of the series we are only half way through, when each episode finishes i can't wait for the next one, it just gets better and better.

Daniel Radcliffe

I find Andy Millman's fake in show sitcom When the Whistle Blows funnier than the actual ones of its type.

With a hit sitcom Andy gets a part in a Harry Potter film, despite the incompetent efforts by his agent.

Andy encounters Daniel Radcliffe acting like a horny teenager. His agent Darren insults diminutive actor Warwick Davis. Maggie upsets Warwick's fiancee.

Even then it is Andy who gets bad publicity when he inadvertently insults a young lad with Downs Syndrome in a restaurant.

Funniest scene is Dame Diana Rigg with a condom on her head and then telling off Daniel over the use of his grammar.
