Best series in existence

I am overjoyed at the success this show has seen. It is so funny, so clever, so exciting, and overall so fun to watch. I watch and re-watch each series regularly. Highly, highly recommended.

It's only Dave but I love it!

Literally the most I've ever laughed at a TV show

I was in a really deep depression (really, I have mental health issues) and I started to watch a random episode of this and got into it, I ended up howling with laughter like I never have before. I have now watched every episode and always really look forward to a new series. It so funny but in such a simple way and it also has the tip top gold of the UK comedy scene. Watch it now!

Comedy gold

Such a simple concept, executed flawlessly! Greg is a perfect host, Alex is a pure genius for coming up with everything, brilliant choice of contestants.

Why did it take me so long to give it a go!

I hate myself for ignoring the number of ads I watched promoting the show. 2020 has been a year to forget but I will always remember it fondly for the year I binged and I binged on this absolute genius show. The task are excellent, the calibre of contestants is extremely high and Greg and (little) Alex Horne are the couple you look at and wonder 'who is the big spoon and who is the little spoon' just watch it! If you don't enjoy this show you don't deserve it!
