And now you can play the "Withnail and I" drinking game. Like all drinking games, it works better with more players. The rules are simple. Just take a sip of your drink according to the table below as you see events unfold onscreen. Alcoholic beverages are compulsory for this game. No tea, coffee, fruit juice or Smart Water shall be permitted.
Each player must drink:
When anyone drinks, eats, or lights a cigarette onscreen Twice when someone drinks coffee out of something other than a proper cup Twice when someone lights a joint Three times when someone lights a Camberwell Carrot Whenever Withnail is visibly intoxicated Whenever money changes hands When anyone can be seen in their underwear When anyone goes into or comes out of the rain, soaking wet Twice when Withnail handles a shotgun Twice when anyone is seen wearing plastic bags for boots A whole glass when Monty is seen wearing eye shadow Three times when urine is visible onscreen
The object of the game is moot. There is no object. Just be glad you don't have an unemployed dipsomaniac actor for a roommate.
So, there you have it. Make sure to have ample fluids ready, be they wine, beer or something more flammable. Afterwards, Advil, vitamin B12 and plenty of water are highly recommended, as well as a couch of repose within stumbling distance. You'll be consuming more than you think. "I demand to have some booze!"
