Colin's Sandwich was a late 1980s/early 1990s BBC2 sitcom starring Mel Smith as Colin Watkins, a British Rail clerk who aspired to be a horror writer. The show was written by Paul Smith and Terry Kyan and ran for two series of six episodes (18 October-22 November 1988, 12 January-16 February 1990). In the second series, Mel's character manages to achieve some small successes as a writer.
Famous quotes containing the word sandwich:
“The result of civilization, at the Sandwich Islands and elsewhere, is found productive to the civilizers, destructive to the civilizees. It is said to be compensation—a very philosophical word; but it appears to be very much on the principle of the old game, “You lose, I win”: good philosophy for the winner.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
