Published Friday, Sep 30 2005, 11:26 BST | By Daniel Saney
Cult sketch show The Fast Show may be heading to the silver screen in the future.
The BBC programme, featuring the likes of Paul Whitehouse, John Thomson, Arabella Weir, Charlie Higson and Simon Day, ran from 1994 to 2000 and spawned two successful national tours, the second of which was in 2002.
Now, it seems that a film might be in the pipeline according to Thomson. He told The Sun: "We're making a documentary about the show at the moment. It was so popular, and still is popular; I'd love to do another one.
"The Pythons did things like The Life Of Brian, so why don't we do a multi-character movie? I don't know what the other boys think but it would be brilliant."
