Whether talking about cakes with flustered bakers, or fending off the awe-inspiring powers of the malevolent Crack Fox, British comedian Noel Fielding has always operated on a level of professional whimsy that might be described as “over-powering, bordering on Amelie-esque.” Which is why it feels thoroughly fitting to report tonight that Fielding has just sold a show about a magical record player to Netflix—indeed, the idea that such a project could exist without the Mighty Boosh and Great British Bake-Off star being involved somehow now sounds utterly ludicrous to our ears.
