And it was a wise decision to move it to London, because without the British-ness - and without Simon Pegg - it would be just another mediocre rom-com with a stereotyped story and stereotyped gags. But it’s how Simon Pegg delivers those gags which makes you laugh despite the clichés. Kudos go as well to “assistant coach” Harish Patel, Dylan Moran, and the incredibly beautiful India de Beaufort.
