End Of The Road
A documentary made by my old friend Rich Nicholls for his company Swift Films in 2006, featuring yours truly and Mr Sy Thomas. Can two idiots make a 4,000 mile journey to Africa in a car that cost them £100? Probably. You can see the full movie here for free if you're a LoveFilm member. Also due to be shown on the Discovery Channel in 2012.

Excellent (in my opinion) stuff
Armando Iannucci's Facts And Fancies
About as perfect a balance of the childish and the intelligent as you're likely to find. Episode 2 on opera is one of the most perfect comedy monologues I think I've ever heard.
A few of these musings ended up in Channel 4's equally brilliant Armando Iannucci Shows
Facts And Fancies on YouTube
Chris Morris' Blue Jam monologues
On a similar note, these dreamlike radio monologues, written by Chris Morris and Robert Katz, are wonderfully bizarre. It's amazing to think now that Blue Jam was ever on Radio 1. Jam was great when it made it to telly, but not a patch on the freaky imagery that Blue Jam conjured up.
