- Marion and Geoff was a BBC television comedy, produced by Baby Cow Productions and screened on BBC Two between 2000 and 2003. The series starred Rob Brydon as Keith Barret, a naïve taxicab driver going through a messy divorce from his wife, Marion, who, though he failed to realise it, had had a long-standing affair with her work colleague, Geoff. Each episode was presented as a monologue, filmed by a fixed camera in the confines of his cab. The series were written by Brydon and Hugo Blick, and produced and directed by Blick. The associate producer was Steve Coogan. The script is written in such a way that the viewer can pick up on clues that Keith has not himself deciphered. Numerous references are made to one of "his" children not resembling him very strongly, an obvious hint that one of the children he loves so dearly is not his own, but in fact Geoff's. Keith also gives clues in the first series about his wife's activities - the viewer knows about Marion's affair long before he works it out himself. Keith's character is affectionately portrayed as a harmless simpleton and draws a great deal of sympathy as the series progresses. He is in denial about his divorce, and somehow always manages to look on the positive side of even the most depressing situation. Although he doesn't realise it, his life revolves around Marion and her new partner Geoff, and his love for his "little smashers" (his children). Despite all of his faults, Keith is a very honest and very kind man.
