Originally made for the BBC's short-lived UK Play channel, its cult success catapulted the stars into their acting roles in Channel 4's hugely successful, and Bafta-nominated, Peep Show.

I rather liked this, unlike the other reviewers. I couldn't watch Peep Show (the camera work made me feel queasy), but I enjoyed That Mitchell And Webb Sound on the radio, and this was basically the TV version of that.
Some of the sketches definitely went on longer than they needed to, and some just weren't funny, but on the whole I'm not unhappy to have spent three hours watching it!
So why compare?
One has to admit that the jokes are a little patchy, but when they hit the nail on the head, its laugh out loud funny.
I can only assume other reviewers are big fans of ,'Only fools and horses' et al snore!
