Bill Bailey/YMMV

• And the Fandom Rejoiced: When it was announced that he was to guest star in 2011's Doctor Who Christmas Special.
  • When it was announced he was to headline at the UK Sonisphere festival in 2011, a Metal festival no less. Topped off by playing this version of Enter Sandman.
• Crazy Awesome: Very frequently.
• Crowning Music of Awesome: "Human slaves... in an insect nation! AAAAH-AHHHHHH!"
  • If he's got any manner of instrument in hand, this probably will ensue.
• Hilarious in Hindsight: Lunge Wildly at the Pope
• Memetic Mutation: "ROFLYSST," which stands for "rolling on the floor laughing yet somehow still typing," a chatspeak expression he thinks the internet needs.
• Nightmare Fuel: According to him, The Magic Roundabout's theme music contains a section of this.
  • He also comments on the scariness of the Mastermind theme. Truth in Television, as the creator of the show based the concept on his experiences of being interrogated by the Gestapo.
• This Is Your Premise on Drugs:

"TV writers, they often use "acid" as a kind of a shorthand for "wacky" ? they'll say something like "This sitcom, it'll be like Terry And June ON ACID! Imagine what that'll be like!" Yeah, I can imagine what that'll be like ? that'll be Terry examining the floral pattern on a plate for four days..."

• • He also once made the observation that the original theme music to The Bill was great because it was "subversive"... in that it was a reefer tune disguised as the theme music to a cop show.
