David Mitchell's Soapbox Season 1 -The Act of Giving Flowers
  • 14 years ago
Episode 2 of this comedy show sees David Mitchell give his take on the act of giving flowers, starting with a tip of the hat to the Victorian age where the act of giving flowers actually had a specific meaning. But focussing on the act of giving flowers outside of a relationship and how this undeniable gesture of romantic intent comes so easy for some and yet so difficultly to other - specifically himself who actually only gave flower on one occasion and that was due to the fact that he had been sick on a woman's floor and couldn't afford to get it cleaned up. Enjoy.
