Exclusive: Tim Burgess For Mighty Boosh?
The Charlatans' Tim Burgess tells Xfm how he was nearly cast as the wife of The Mighty Boosh's Old Greg. Could this have been a match made in Boosh heaven?
Well we already knew that they were mates but now it has transpired that Charlatans' Tim Burgess could have been a character in The Mighty Boosh at one point.
Speaking exlusively to Xfm at The Mighty Boosh festival this past weekend Burgess explained:
"I love [Boosh character] Old Greg and when I first hung out with Dave [Brown], who plays Bollo I think they were going to write a part for me as Old Greg's wife which would have been amazing!"
Check out all the highlight, interviews and pictures from The Mighty Boosh Festival.
