A has-been actor best known for playing the title character in the 1980s detective series "Mindhorn" must work with the police when a serial killer says that he will only speak with Detective Mindhorn, whom he believes to be a real person.
A washed-up '80s sci-fi TV show detective is summoned back to his home to solve a crime and confront the co-stars he abandoned 25 years ago. This is a hilarious British deadpan comedy in the same style as Alpha Papa – and also stars Steve Coogan – with many tropes poked fun at.
Highlights were the Hollywood sign chase sequence, the “getting into character” phone scene and the carnival float sketch. The movie loses a little of its steam towards the end, with the unnecessary twist. But overall it is full of wit, great oneliners and some wonderful physical comedy too.

The 6 and 3-digit hex color formats (#XXXXXX and #XXX) combined account for 74% of all color declarations. That’s not surprising, or even really bad, but it’s a little unfortunate as these color formats are the most boring and least capable of all.

A full lap of Follow the Dog, interspersed with Perry's Trail and an off-piste section. Then over to Chad’s Ditch on Badgers Hill with the temperature dropping.
