Mammoth

I love the Unexplainers on BBC radio and the podcast so was chuffed to see Mike Bubbins in this and he's a PE teacher again :) Hopefully it will a get a series and we can see more of his story and more of his Capri!

Mammoth stubbornly sticks to the values of the 70s and for that he must be applauded. Great comedy and fantastic references - Marathon bar anyone? Let's have some more.

Life on Mars? - pah!

Toby Mammoth is caught in an avalanche in 1979, he's perfectly frozen and preserved, untill he's brought back to life in present day, Toby has to readjust to a whole new life.

Think of a spoof version of Life on Mars, I think this really work, very funny. I'm so glad to see that a full series followed, it deserved it, it certainly built on it. It certainly has a relevance in today's climate, it's Inoffensive, but definitely pokes fun at 1970's attitudes.

I can't wait to see further episodes, great seeing what Tony gets away with, such as hitting on mums at parents evening and running over a pupil.

This had me chuckling from start to finish, it was well made, and very well acted, Mike Bubbins did a cracking job here, as did Sian Gibson and Joseph Marcell.

Welsh humour at its finest. At a time where it seems that sitcoms have died, this cut through.

8/10.

Came across this excellent comedy for the first time tonight & what a gem! In this world of political correctness & never offending anyone, it's an absolute breath of fresh air & the perfect antidote to the aforementioned PC. Super Strong cast, great script & tons of material to work with, I'm surprised their weren't more episodes. Reminiscent of Life on Mars & now, The Power of Parker, this had me laughing all the way through. Its refreshing to be able to laugh at this type of content-giving you permission to have a good giggle at stuff we can no longer dare mention or even think-we've become so boring & controlled in 2025 and its a very troubled world. Well Done all involved..it's a shame it didn't continue as with such good writers & actors, I could have seen a lot of potential with all the characters developing various storylines moving ahead. I give this a 9 as 10 is reserved for Fawlty Towers-another politically incorrect comedy that would never be commissioned now!

Only reviewing this to comment on a review below from Shade Grenade. What the f is wrong with you? Did you have a bad childhood or are you simply still a child? Such a damning review with hypercritical tendencies I feel sure you are damaged and need help!

My review is simply, this is a cracking shoe with good comedic references. I mean it's not side splitting stuff but just good clean harmless fun, I will never understand these weird reviews that must somehow make people feel like they are some over paid Hollywood critic.

Just calm down, sit in a darkened room, cry a little and then go out and make some real friends, this life is going to be tough with an attitude like that!
