  Cleverly funny

  This series is simply brilliant from start to finish. Time Trumpet is a talking head 'I heart the 60s' style show set in the not too distant future, looking back on the events of 2000 onwards. The general themes are always superbly funny but quite sincerely some of the must utterly hilarious moments are short, almost throwaway clips from TV shows they are reflecting on. My favourite? A 10 second clip from 'The girl with the voice of Boris Johnson' - perfectly edited for maximum comic effect... as is the whole thing, with some hilarious CGI included, see 'Tesco invades Denmark'. 5 Stars, Top marks, A+, perfect!

  CLEVER RATHER THAN FUNNY

  I was disappointed with the series finding the sketches cleverly done and original but not really funny. A bit like trying to make a film of Private Eye. Also watching one episode after another doesn't help with the repetetiveness and predictability.
