"Has anyone else noticed the strange person who appears to share the flat with the guys. If you look carefully in the first five episodes you can see a mysterious person with long black hair who appears sitting against walls in the background of
quite a few scenes. He has his hair over his face but it looks like another hippy. Once you have noticed him he is very obvious! Places I remember seeing him are sitting to the left of the screen in Interesting when Vyv tries the new vacuum cleaner, behind Mike in Demolition when he's reading the TV Times and in Boring, he's next to the cupboard when the old guy comes out from under the stairs." -- (Simon Jansen)

"The best places to see him are (in Demolition) when Rik sits down to watch Nozin' Aroun'... and (in Bomb) when Vyv hits Neil over the head with the kettle that has killed itself rather than be used by Neil. It's no teddy bear - it's another hippie! It's not a corpse either - it's in a sitting position and holding its hands. I have no explanation, but as he appears in Bomb and Demolition (the only eps I have so far examined for evidence), and these eps were made over six months apart, it's not a one-off thing - there must be a reason!" -- (Ryan Mooney)
