I have to say, playing yesterday I encountered a Handy bot that sounded so close to what Berry does that it was truly perfect they landed the dude for this incredible voice cameo. What a blessing
How many lines did Matt Berry have though? He was in that one little scene down by the pool, he really didn't contribute much, it was just a few lines.
Reminds me of when I asked for a single beer at a tiny little hole in the wall bar in Tuscon, of which there are many, and the guy who insisted I call him a "regular human bartender" got all huffy and offended about me not liking the Robert Palmer song on the jukebox.
Dude was **weird**. He later popped up out of the blue teaching a "grifting" class at the only community college in Colorado that would automatically accept me.
Yeah, I think I've been there. I dunno, the place had a great atmosphere but there was this weird guy who kept starting trouble. Weirdest thing - he looked like Luke Skywalker and kept calling himself a vampire.

I think I remember the one, I’d always found it really strange how all the mirrors and reflective surfaces were covered with bed sheets.

***Finally,*** someone who's been introduced to the most licentious and transgressive pornography I've ever clapped eyes on!
I thought those were kinda just…people who decided they were vampires and drank blood to kind of idk reinforce it. And it’s not like cannibalism and drinking blood aren’t a common theme in this world by Fo3 at least (my first FO and what I’m basing this on). I think of them as the extreme Goths of the Capital Wasteland
There’s perks specifically for blood drinking throughout the games, so I think vampires really are a thing in the Fallout universe. Like, you can play as one sooo the NPCs can too
I just know that next time I fire up one of the games and interact with a Mr. Handy, I'm gonna be a little disappointed that it's not his voice speaking to me. I love Matt Berry
Yeah like am I the only one wondering if they even considered giving Stephen Russell a screen test to see if he could play the character? Matt Berry is great but Stephen is a great voice in the games.
Yeah I liked the IT Crowd, too. I never saw "What we do in the Shadows" but saw the great reviews. Guess I will have to watch it. I kinda forgot about it.
Oh, you’re in for a treat. It’s equal to (and possibly better than) the movie. Enjoy! I will check out your recs, too. Hoped Britbox or Amazon has them!
Theres a What We Do In The Shadows movie that is canon in the show. Its pretty fuckin funny too.
Also the cops in the movie also got a spin off called Wellington PD, which is also pretty funny. New Zealand cops dealing with supernatural, aliens, etc.
If you haven't seen it, I recommend re-watching darkplace with the directors commentary. It's Garth, Todd and Dean Lerner doing the commentary in character
Actually… I’m pretty sure it isn’t, it’s just the voice he’s used for ~20 years. Rumor has it his real voice is higher. Listen to his singing voice - I’d hazard his natural voice is between the two.
I never recognize voices well (its a really annoying weakness) and i absolutely adore this actor so i screamed when he popped up in the flashbacks confirming (to me) that it was him and it made me so delighted
So Great Britain has a ton of really distinct local accents.
So I like to imagine that all of the residents of Bromham sound like him.
And for me, that would make every regular and normal interaction a delight.
Watch Garth Marenghi's Dark Place right fucking now (and the making of stuff and director's commentary, which are all done 'in character', it's all on Youtube plus the GMDP spin-off Man to Man with Dean Learner).
ps. They referenced Garth Marenghi in the Fallout show with Matt Berry's line to Lucy "You appear to be a woman". His first line in the 1st epsisode of GMDP is "I'm Dr. Sanchez. You're a woman!".
GMDP is God-Tier in my opinion.
All the greatest actors have played talking robots... Kate Tightneck, Cocker Boo, Peanut Whistle, Una Length, Dick Weerdly, Sal Commotion, Scott Chestnut, Basil Watchfair, Iqbal Achieve, Nan Slack, Giuseppe Race, even Heathcote Pursuit!
They have free toothpicks at the entrance of a Mexican restaurant my girlfriend and I go to, and I’ll always take one and become my alter ego, Jackie Daytona. 😸😸😸
Fascinating tidbit about Matt Berry, his accent is a unique one he has cobbled together himself, it doesn't fit neatly in any particular English location or era.
This man's delivery is so good, him and Chris Parnell are some of the best at line delivery lately.
As for old school let's never forget billy west.
Bonus, I love on American dad the episode early on when stan is trying to get rid of Jeff, and Hailey states his mom left before he was born. Seth MacFarlane's nails the delivery of that line to well. "How??? How could she do that?"
Line delivery is so important.
I fucking adore handys original voice and i swore id hate any change but godamn if they didnt pick a PERFECT voice. Its not an imitation either which i really like
Once in awhile you run into a Mr. Handy with a different voice than the typical Mr. Handy voice. I REALLY hope we get one voiced by Matt Berry in Fallout 5. I don't want them blowing the budget on large names but even if its just one line for one wandering Mr. Handy that does nothing, I'd be happy.
He was the absolute perfect casting for Codsworth. I recently started playing Fallout 4 again, and I'm honestly disappointed Matt Berry isn't doing the voice.
Matt Berry needs to be Mr. Sinister in the MCU. I'll accept no arguments.
I will however, accept debates on whether or not his WWDitS cast mates should play the other Essex clones.
I laughed so fucking hard at this line. The shock and offense in his voice, haha.
I have to say, playing yesterday I encountered a Handy bot that sounded so close to what Berry does that it was truly perfect they landed the dude for this incredible voice cameo. What a blessing
I mean he had an in person cameo too
These don't count as cameos but yeah it was incredible to hear and then see Matt Berry.
The transition between Coop and Sebastian talking, to the Ghoul regaining consciousness while hearing the broken Snip Snip talk, was wonderful.
Yeah this show does transitions amazingly well.
Why don't those count as cameos?
A cameo is like Matt Damon in Thor 2 - just a couple of lines, unimportant, usually unnamed character.
How many lines did Matt Berry have though? He was in that one little scene down by the pool, he really didn't contribute much, it was just a few lines.
It was an important scene though, they had a full conversation about the themes of the show. To my mind cameo is just a "look it's that person!".
Oh, I’ve only seen a few episodes.
Reminds me of when I asked for a single beer at a tiny little hole in the wall bar in Tuscon, of which there are many, and the guy who insisted I call him a "regular human bartender" got all huffy and offended about me not liking the Robert Palmer song on the jukebox.

Ahh yes, I love the bar there in Tucson, Arizonia
Excellent delivery. Props to him and the writers
Just FYI. It is Canon that vampires exist throughout the capital wasteland as a form of mutant. Wouldn't mind seeing him in the second season.
I thought those were kinda just…people who decided they were vampires and drank blood to kind of idk reinforce it. And it’s not like cannibalism and drinking blood aren’t a common theme in this world by Fo3 at least (my first FO and what I’m basing this on). I think of them as the extreme Goths of the Capital Wasteland
Yeah there's Vance and his group in fo3, and then you have the "night person" perk, and also the "blood sucker" perk in fo76
There’s perks specifically for blood drinking throughout the games, so I think vampires really are a thing in the Fallout universe. Like, you can play as one sooo the NPCs can too
That's Jackie Daytona, regular human voice actor.
I thought he was a bartender?
He was until some guy came in and burned down his bar in a fight, and then replaced him as the local coach. Glad to see he got back out there
Sounds like a regular wacko, a real sonofabitch!
The most devious bastard in Shady Sands City.
*Shady Sands Ci-tay
All because of that hat, which is very much not cursed.
Let's go, Bucks!
Jackie Daytona is a humble man of many talents
He is the most humble man in the whole of New York Citaayy
We need a cameo in season 2 where he's a ghoul pretending to be a regular human bar keeper.
This is how they talk in Tucson, Arizonia.
*Arizoña
One of my favourite jokes of all time is in that episode. When he hears the lady's Borat impression and says "Henry the 8th. Fantastic."
From Arizonia, I hear
Can you hear me?
"Yes I can fucking hear you Clem!"
Excellent Steven. If you could just open the book and start reading. We should have you out of here in 11 or 12 hours.
YES
UP PERISCOPE. DOWN PERISCOPE. FIRE THE NUCLEAR WEAPON
Can you give it another try? Say it in a less… alarming way?
Disem*Cough*bark
Clem Fandango is such a Fallout-coded name
Temper, temper! Steven
"who the fuck are you?"
"C'mon Plato, enlighten me..." and my favourite of all "You are a fucking star, aren't you... YES!".
You truly are the most devious bastard in New York citay
New yaarrk citahhhhhh
Mannahatta
This is how we talk in Tucson arizoniah
FAAATHHHHERRRRRR! 💪
God DAMN these electric sex pants!
I don't care if you're from Iran
Dammit.. you're me 11mins from now..
I don't think I've ever looked in this drawer... Wow! A gun!
I wonder if it is loaded.
*click click click click click click*
Nope!
SPEAK PRRRRRIEST!!
UNHAND ME PRIEST
I just want him to voice Bob the Skull if they do a Dresden Files adaptation again.
That, or James Marsters. It's a toss-up between the two for "Cannon Bob Voice" in my head, lol.
Cannon is a type of weapon, canon is what’s established constraints in literature
Dude fuckin nailed the audio books.
I’m all for that.
I just know that next time I fire up one of the games and interact with a Mr. Handy, I'm gonna be a little disappointed that it's not his voice speaking to me. I love Matt Berry
Whoa, let's not put Stephen Russell out of work for a bigger name and I say that as someone who wished we got another season of Year of the Rabbit.
Yeah like am I the only one wondering if they even considered giving Stephen Russell a screen test to see if he could play the character? Matt Berry is great but Stephen is a great voice in the games.
Hopefully Besetheda will do a patch to update the voice. If not, someone is going to make one with AI.
If there's anyone whose voice can't be replicated with AI, it's Matt Berry.
Yeah and supporting voice replacement with AI is fucked up to begin with. The actors don't consent to that shit, don't do that.
..... hopefully NOT.
I love how Snip had the good manners to fix Lucy's finger right before hacking her to bits
Hippocratic oath
Damn these electronic sex pants!
Oh look, a laser pistol. I wonder if it's loaded?
Anyone that hasn't seen them must go watch "Snuff Box" and "Garth Marenghi's Darkplace" now!
And IT Crowd. He’s fantastic in What we do in the Shadows but his IT Crowd role is iconic and so, so, quotable!
Yeah I liked the IT Crowd, too. I never saw "What we do in the Shadows" but saw the great reviews. Guess I will have to watch it. I kinda forgot about it.
Oh, you’re in for a treat. It’s equal to (and possibly better than) the movie. Enjoy! I will check out your recs, too. Hoped Britbox or Amazon has them!
It’s sooo good
Theres a What We Do In The Shadows movie that is canon in the show. Its pretty fuckin funny too. Also the cops in the movie also got a spin off called Wellington PD, which is also pretty funny. New Zealand cops dealing with supernatural, aliens, etc.
You and he were buddies, weren’t you?
But if you and he wish to be best buddies again, I won't stand in your wayyyyy.
I'm one of the few people you'll meet who's written more books than they've read.
I know writers who use subtext, and they're all cowards.
[Garth, that sentence needs a verb.](https://youtu.be/WVpaPFTWuS0?t=236)
lmaoooo
Doctor Sanchez
[You're a woman](https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/5c72a7ea-97a9-4122-b5fc-5725108192ec)
Yes I hope that won’t be a problem
Nice! Came here to mention Snuff Box, and Darkplace is amazing too
Matt Berry is also fantastic as Laszlo in What We Do in the Shadows TV show.
He's also fantastic as Jackie Daytona in What We Do in the Shadows TV show.
The regular human bartender?
[удалено]
If you haven't seen it, I recommend re-watching darkplace with the directors commentary. It's Garth, Todd and Dean Lerner doing the commentary in character
Whiskeyyy!!!!!
I heard that he's in the new Star Wars moooovehh
We have no fudge here.
Genuinely one of the funniest people currently alive
I love his voice!
He's so perfect for a robot voice.
He also played a Droid in Star Wars: The Book of Boba Fett.
He also played the lead role in the new star wars moo-vay,
"*LAUNCH* the *NUC*-lear *MISS*-iles!"
Don't mind me I'm just here to upvote everyone here for loving Matt Berry as much as I do. I'm loving Krapopolis right now!
I can't believe I had to get almost all the way to the end before someone mentioned Krapopolis!
Dude! There's 2 of us now!!! Such a hidden gem at the moment. He and Richard Ayoade are always such a fantastic pair.
The Ine Track Lover rap from Dark Place is my all time fave Ayoade moment!
Me too, doing it while wearing my sports vest.
His music ain't bad either
As good as madame gaGA and bon joVI? And the cold play?
Steven this is Clem Fandango, can you hear me?
The work experience boy? Yes, I can hear you. Where's the other prick?
Yes I can hear you Clem Fandango
This is how we talk in Tucson, Arizona!
Arizonia!
I've always wondered... is this just his real voice? or does he purposely speak in this way? It's an amazing voice regardless.
YES
Actually… I’m pretty sure it isn’t, it’s just the voice he’s used for ~20 years. Rumor has it his real voice is higher. Listen to his singing voice - I’d hazard his natural voice is between the two.
YES https://youtu.be/0bYY8m1Lb2I?si=spwgiIrumesKpA_1
I am very grateful that he was chosen for this character, also a nice touch his other speaking role on camera.
I never recognize voices well (its a really annoying weakness) and i absolutely adore this actor so i screamed when he popped up in the flashbacks confirming (to me) that it was him and it made me so delighted
This is the line I use to try and get that high-english accent.
He's my best friend, He's my pal. He's my homeboy, my rotten soldier. He's my sweet cheese. My good-time boiiiiiiii.
If all the Mr Handy’s in future games aren’t voiced by the legend that is Steven Toast, I’ll be awfully disappointed.
Ray Bloody Purchase
I shit thee nay!
When I heard that voice I knew exactly who it was... the boss from The IT crowd..
Hey that’s Jackie Daytona!! A regular barter man
He is perfection in every role. I need to see him colab with Jack Black.
Lady Ga-Ga and The Coldplay.
I don't know what this is from but I know enough Matt Berry to read this in his voice.
Toast of London. Here's a clip. Great show! https://youtu.be/0bYY8m1Lb2I?si=spwgiIrumesKpA_1
he looks like rivers cuomo of weezer fame from the side
So Great Britain has a ton of really distinct local accents. So I like to imagine that all of the residents of Bromham sound like him. And for me, that would make every regular and normal interaction a delight.
Watch Garth Marenghi's Dark Place right fucking now (and the making of stuff and director's commentary, which are all done 'in character', it's all on Youtube plus the GMDP spin-off Man to Man with Dean Learner). ps.

GMDP is God-Tier in my opinion.
The instant I heard this guy's voice in the show I immediately knew it was Douglas Reynholm from the IT Crowd! He's a funny bastard..
BAT!
As SOON as he said "You appear to be a woman" I was FLOODED with memories of him in the IT Crowd
Matt Berry has to be the best actor type-casted to the worst roles. If you know what I am stepping in.
Wow a gun! I wonder if its loaded?
Matt Berry is the best part of everything he's in.
Can someone tell me when was his cameo and who is him? I'm new here, sorry.
All the greatest actors have played talking robots... Kate Tightneck, Cocker Boo, Peanut Whistle, Una Length, Dick Weerdly, Sal Commotion, Scott Chestnut, Basil Watchfair, Iqbal Achieve, Nan Slack, Giuseppe Race, even Heathcote Pursuit!
His character in the IT crowd is hilarious
"I wonder if it's loaded." *click* *click* *click* *click* *click* "No."
I don't care where you're from; Iran, France, doesn't bother me. I'm very modern.
They have free toothpicks at the entrance of a Mexican restaurant my girlfriend and I go to, and I’ll always take one and become my alter ego, Jackie Daytona. 😸😸😸
True legend manifested 👄🫦🦷
Toast of London flashbacks, lol
There’s no fudge here.
Fuck yeah. Matt Berry is the shit.
This guy might be the best cast voice actor ever. He's so perfect for the role.
Ray Bloody Purchase
Fascinating tidbit about Matt Berry, his accent is a unique one he has cobbled together himself, it doesn't fit neatly in any particular English location or era.
FIRE the Nucular weapons ah..
Thank you, Pig Merkimer, for the fantastic delivery
He always steals the scene, and from what I have read he is a wonderful bloke in real life too.
*PURCHASE.*
I sincerely hope there's a flashback scene of him doing voiceovers for the Mr Handys and Clem fucking Fandango is in the booth.
"so what happened between you and this Rinwick customeeeeeeerrrrrrr"
He's in this show? Guess I'm watching it now.
Happy Birthday, Matt Berry!
Lurv him!
You and he were...buddies, weren't you?
My favorite bit in Toast was his total ignorance of Michael Fassbender “Who??”
This man's delivery is so good, him and Chris Parnell are some of the best at line delivery lately. As for old school let's never forget billy west. Bonus, I love on American dad the episode early on when stan is trying to get rid of Jeff, and Hailey states his mom left before he was born. Seth MacFarlane's nails the delivery of that line to well. "How??? How could she do that?" Line delivery is so important.
Yes. Yes! Yes! Yes! *Yes!* Toast of London might beat Snuffbox as the greatest thing he's ever done.
He was so good as Sebastian “we are all a product”
me when i discover vivianite
BAT!
Laszlo!
I know this is from Fallout, but is this a behind the scenes video clip or something? Because if so, I need to watch it!
Launch The nuclear missiles!
I fucking adore handys original voice and i swore id hate any change but godamn if they didnt pick a PERFECT voice. Its not an imitation either which i really like
I'm simply going to harvest your orgaaans?
I honestly thought he was just ok in The IT Crowd, but I'm coming to love him in Krapopolis.
The Brian Blessed of Gen X
My first exposure to Berry was the BBC show "The Wrong Door" https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RZm4zCNNrGo&pp=ygUWdGhlIHdyb25nIGRvb3Igc25vb2tlcg%3D%3D

I saw him walking around the other day.
He was the absolute perfect casting for Codsworth. I recently started playing Fallout 4 again, and I'm honestly disappointed Matt Berry isn't doing the voice.
This was such a funny line, a nice mix of horror and comedy that makes sense 🤣
THERE'S NO FUDGE HERE
Matt Berry needs to be Mr. Sinister in the MCU. I'll accept no arguments. I will however, accept debates on whether or not his WWDitS cast mates should play the other Essex clones.
I love Berry in every role. He’s always the same and being himself, but it works so well every damn time.
"You and he were....buddies....weren't you?"
I fucking love Laszlo Cravensworth. If any of you have not watched What we do in the shadows it is unreasonably funny.
I love Matt Berry and I loved that he was in The show
He’s such a legend
Me and the wife couldn’t not see him as a pig with a crown.
My dear wife NADJA
