    I watched this series first time round on the tv. I can remember it being very funny. Sadly when i watched them now I didn't find anything funny or if i did laugh it was very rare. They just don't seem to have stood up to time.

  • Brilliant stuff

    Rated - 4.5 stars

    Bonoestente! Catch phrases abound in this fast paced excellent comedy treat. Good start to what was become a classic ongoing series, many new charachters to come and they're kind of missed in this first outing.

    Only 'Big Train' meets the same standard of the fast concept, many others came and were forgotten.

  • As funny as it ever was...

    Fast show still relevant today as it was then, I'd say 'a Classic' ... you can't say that with some others e.g. Vic Reeves Big night out or Bottom.. both utter rubbish on reflection.

  • Fast Show

    Rated - 5.0 stars  
    By Thegooddoctor (5 reviews) from Derby , 15 Dec 2007
    This was the show that spawned a thousand other sketch shows. Nothing will ever quite equal the brilliance of Whitehouse, Higson, Day et al who ushered in a new era in television comedy here.

  • Its entertaining

    Rated - 3.0 stars  
    By a customer from Bristol , 18 Jul 2007
    The Fast Show series one improved, episode by episode and commanded a range of responses to the characters, from nauseatingly cringeworthy to excellent.
