Sweet! I just saw this at the Mori Art Museum in Tokyo last week. The way it's displayed, you can walk up into the center of it and also view it from above. It's also very well lit, casting cityscape shadows on the walls of the room that it's in. Very cool...

I had also heard that there were going to be eight episodes for season two, but now I can't remember where I heard it. The Channel 4 IT Crowd site makes it seem like there are only six episodes in season two.

I really like some of the British comedies already referenced but no conversation about contemporary British comedy would be complete without mentioning Mitchell & Webb. Peep Show is possibly the funniest sitcom I've ever seen. Their sketch comedy is hilarious. Even their movie Magicians was good.
