Two of the biggest comedy names in Britain, Harry Enfield and Paul Whitehouse, reunite after eight years for a sketch series with a gallery of completely new characters.

There's Peskovitch the ever diving footballer, the Posh Scaffolders, the Fat Kids Jamie and Oliver, and Nelson Mandela as you have never seen him before. Or after, if his lawyers have anything to do with it.

Other characters include Laurel and Hardy in Brokeback Mountain, The Greek Mr Bean, The Computer Billionaires and Bono and The Edge.

I agree, in the two episodes I've watched I've laughed twice. I thought the sketch with the football manager speaking eleven different languages to his eleven players was well done and I also like the sketch with Harry going into the coffee shop run by two fit Polish girls who he fancies but they think he's really old at 47. Other than that it needs to get an awful lot better to match their earlier work.

I also thought the sketch about the "Hoodies" to the music of the Goodies was in really bad taste. I must be getting really old. :frown:

Agree the Polish coffee shop was very funny + and the multi lingo football manager -- The south african guy in the gym was funny too -- well its free init cant complain too much.

The originals are classics and I doubt there ever top them -- LOad's of money :D

Yep - had a high opinion of Harry - Kevin & Perry was inspired.
