With his series "Marion And Geoff", Rob Brydon suddenly found himself, at the age of 38, being hailed as one of TV brightest "new" talents, though as the listing here on TV Tome indicates, he had made many small appearances in TV and film for nearly a decade beforehand.

A bit like ‘The Larry Sanders Show’, it’s a panel show hosted by Brydon, intercut at a dizzying speed with footage of him planning the show behind the scenes.
While the format of the first ‘Annually Retentive’ suggests its comic possibilities are limited (Brydon’s snide remarks are funny, but can they sustain a series?), Duddridge promises that further episodes will build on his character.
