I never saw this series when it was originally broadcast so I was quite pleased when it came out on DVD. The cast includes many now famous British comedy actors and was scripted by part of the Father Ted team. Unfortunately it isn't particularly funny and some of the usual sharp witted humour associated with Simon Pegg and Co is sadly missing and replaced with run of the mill slapstick humour normally associated with forgetful comedy series. It does have it's comedy moments but in general it didn't really hold my attention. You would have to assume the reason why this had a belated DVD release is because it wasn't originally very well received and is now trying to make money out of the fame of Simon Pegg. Disappointing.
