Chris is a Senior News Writer for Collider. He can be found in an IMAX screen, with his eyes watering and his ears bleeding for his own pleasure. He joined the news team in 2022 and accidentally fell upwards into a senior position despite his best efforts.
The Big Picture The word "moist" has long been the subject of intense debate, much like the last slice of pizza at a party that nobody wants to claim but everyone secretly desires, and that is the subject of this exclusive clip that Collider is delighted to be bringing our readers, from the upcoming Peacock series Hapless. How on earth did we get to this? Well, let's unpack it.
Unlike its more straightforward cousins "wet" and "damp," which conjure up images of rain-soaked socks or a foggy morning, "moist" tiptoes through the English language, leaving a trail of cringed faces and shudders in its wake. "Wet" is the ocean on a stormy day; "damp" is your towel after a quick shower; but "moist"? "Moist" is the uncomfortable middle ground that nobody asked for, yet everyone has an opinion about.
And it's a lovely cake that features in the clip as Tim Downie's Paul Green and Jeany Spark as his sister, Naomi, as they go for a delightful cake tasting session with Sally Phillips presenting a delicious slice to them both. Paul, sadly for Naomi, proffers his take that the cake is incredibly moist, to which Naomi takes great offense, as, allegedly, it conjures other connotations of aroused women. Unfortunately, the caterer takes this the wrong way and threatens to attack Naomi.
What Is 'Hapless' About? Hapless is a British television series that revolves around the life of Paul Green, a journalist based in London, who becomes accidentally tangled up in the UK's small but disturbing anti-semitism movement. The series is a dark comedy, navigating the absurdities and twisted humour arising from Paul's sometimes disastrous misadventures.
