I adore that sketch! I think of it often. It is so tragic and beautiful and horribly relevant to my own social interactions.
Half the reason I love David Mitchell so much is the fact that he and the shows he's involved in are always pulling things out of my psyche, displaying them on the screen and saying look, Riona, you're not alone. This is exactly how it is for me too. This is why I find Peep Show strangely soothing at times (although very occasionally Mark's thoughts are so similar to my own I've been genuinely weirded out).
They both move at the same time and on the same plane, find themselves blocking each other's path. Hesitate. Tom steps right as Ellis steps left. Tom steps left as Ellis steps right. Hesitate again. ♥
