This is the point in the Mighty Boosh where it's creators perfected their formula. This episode is, perhaps, the definitive episode of The Mighty Boosh. It combines all of the elements that make the show what it is in the most precise way. It's zany, it's very creative riding that line between randomness , and upon each viewing it makes more and more sense of what this is all about.
It's an adventure storyline, only every convention is tweaked to define what the Mighty Boosh it is. It doesn't have to make "complete" sense because the Mighty Boosh never has. It's about fun and fantasy and being a kid as an adult again. Details Edit. Release date August 23, United Kingdom. Technical specs Edit. Runtime 27 minutes.

The Funk is a "funky ball of tits from outer space": a small, medicine ball-sized, purple alien who lives in a box in Old Gregg's underwater home. The Funk is made up entirely of teats which can be milked to produce a "funk-shake", and drinking this apparently grants a person extreme funkiness. When the Funk first came to Earth it fell into the possession of Bootsy Collins, who used it to become a funk star but mistreated the Funk terribly.
Eventually the Funk ended up under the sea, where it was found by Old Gregg and taken to Gregg's lair. Interestingly, when Howard opens the Funk's box, the sad-looking creature seems to recognize him, calling his name in a high, whispy voice. It is unknown if Old Gregg spoke of Howard to the creature, if it was able to overhear their conversations outside the box, or if it somehow recognized Howard due to his obsessive love of jazz-funk fusion music.
Howard steals the box at the end of the episode, and while it is implied that Old Gregg catches him later, we are never shown what becomes of the Funk. In some early stage shows a character called Jono The Jono would come on from underneath the stage and drink The Funk's funky milk, but this was not adopted as a regular theme mostly because of a lack of trapdoors at every theatre or gig. Like Fire in Jungle and Extreme Sports Calender in Journey to the Centre of a Punk , Naan Bread starts off as an ordinary naan bread, but when some characters are beckoned to gather round, the naan bread, now played by Dave Brown , does too.
He is then reprimanded, "Not you, Naan Bread. The Mighty Boosh Wiki Explore. Wiki Content. Tundra television episode Killeroo Mutants Bollo television episode Jungle television episode Charlie television episode Electro.
