    Better than 8

    I only awarded this episode 8 stars, but in many ways it was worth more than that and the incredible heavy metal song, about the monkey's great hair, was really worth 10 stars.

    Much of the episode was really a build up to the monkey song. But the Grim Reaper taxi drivers were great and the recurring gag about the fox, who had allegedly been interfered with, was good too.

    I missed The Mighty Boosh back in the day, the previews made it look a bit too weird for me. But I have become a big fan of Noel Fielding over the years and now that they are re-running the series, from the beginning, in my neck of the woods, I decided to give it a go. Up until this episode, I wasn't sure about it, but this one I really enjoyed and would watch again and again.

      Several times, you can see the flesh wrists of some of the Grim Reapers. Once when Phil is driving Vince to Monkey Hell and during the musical bit when the shot changes to the Reaper behind the desk

      Howard Moon: What about me and Jack? Me and Jack aquaintances. We got close, too close some people said.

      Vince Noir: Yeah

      Howard Moon: I don't know what the rumours were.
