The Completely Made-Up Adventures of Dick Turpin

I could say a lot about this, but you need to watch it yourself.

It is fun, witty and just what you need, when you need to laugh and have fun. Dick and Jack Sparrow could have been brothers and I think that you could put the two together, in a new movie....would that be interesting?

The negative reviews are from people that have no basic sense of humor. I don't know how you could not find this series amusing.

The casting and acting is great and the writers do a good job as well.

Just sit back and enjoy it, I guarantee that you will walk away with a smile on your face and anticipating the next episode.

Great dialogue, this is silly humour that features a great performance by Noel Fielding with a bunch of really funny character actors adding to the comedy. Hugh Bonneville is brilliantly hamming it up as the Thieftaker General (hampered by his childcare problems).

This isn't purely slapstick comedy, it's intelligently done with present day references slotted in really well. The conversations are often hilarious.

Hugh talking about catching Turpin: "I want this Dick in my hands as soon as possible!" - cue sniggering from his young son.

I'd never seen Noel in anything until now but this really amused me! Definitely worth a watch for any fans of clever comedy writing in the Python or even Carry On mould.

Noel Fielding on Bake Off is a complete mystery to me. Un-funny and a silly add-on that adds nothing to the programme... which I really dislike in any case. However, in The Completely made-Up Adventures of Dick Turpin he's back to the character that made 50% of the Mighty Boosh very, very funny. It's Marmite... you either love it or hate it, but here are a lot of the Boosh gags and personalities, brought back to life in a great situation. Great costume opportunities, great characters, daft non-sequiturs and some truly excellent guest appearances. Hugh Bonneville is inspired casting... as is greg Davies in episode 2. I absolutely loved it. Can't wait for episode three. Even the opening credit sequence is superb... what gorgeous animation! And Bob Fossil makes an appearance too. If you like Our Flag Means Death you will probably like this. I heartily recommend it.

This was a lot of fun. If you're a fan of silly, off-the-wall comedies, The Completely Made-Up Adventures of Dick Turpin will be an enjoyable ride. The episodes are short and lively, so you can watch all six instalments in under three hours. A lot of the jokes don't really land, but enough do that you'll find yourself laughing along, even if you're not rolling on the floor in hysterics. All of the characters are enjoyable and the situations entertaining. Hopefully, Apple TV+ already has plans for another season, because I'll definitely welcome another set of adventures with Turpin and his gang. I'd like to mention one other thing I really enjoyed about this show - that Turpin is a pacifist and triumphs because of some luck, a few smarts, and a choice to avoid violence whenever possible. That's pretty refreshing in today's world.

Im not going to go into people thinking this was a remake of the old movie or a documentary any one with half a sense knows immediately its comedy reimagining . I mean a kid carries a sign that says witches get stitches You have to listen to the cadence of the speech or you miss a lot of jokes but their are plenty of slapstick and broad humor. Now some people especially in America are not going to get the humor It reminds me of The Windsors and even has Ellie White who played Princess Beatrice in it. I also think a lot of americans dont get comedy that doesnt have a laugh track. I really liked this and if you have ever liked any British comedy show you will like this.
