We've had a lot of fun making the series over the past 6 years, but what do I really think of it? Find out now in Jake's Throwback Reviews!
Skit: Die Hochzeit
Original Release Date: 2nd January 2015
Throwback Review Date: 16th September 2016
Score: 4 out of 5 (very good)
Inspiration: Having established in the previous skit that Folly and Gretel's wedding was one year away from actually taking place, here we are at the reception one year later. (When translated into English, the title of this skit becomes 'The Wedding', of course.) We discover that Merlin's wish from the main series (that he and Treguard would be invited to the wedding) has come true, and that they are not the only ones who have made the effort to come over to Hamburg for the Big Day.
Comments: It's pleasingly quirky and amusing all the way through, but the undisputed highlight is the hilarious performance of Andy Marshall as a drunken, embittered Tim Child.
