The stars of Spaced reunited: ‘Our show doesn’t feel dated like Friends’

Two decades on from the cult comedy, Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Edgar Wright and Jessica Hynes reminisce about the making of a game-changing classic

A two bedroom flat is up for rent in the home used as the exterior of the cult series Spaced. A dream come true, for any Spaced fan who can afford the £460 pw!

Best to save your money and just respectfully have your photograph taken in front of the house. Please do not knock on the front door, Tim and Daisy will not answer. ;)
