    Amazing

    Laugh out loud new comedy. I casually sat down for an episode and watched both series solidly.

    Watch it :-)

    Comedy it is not

    Cliche driven rubbish, stereotypical and just not funny. You can have all the goodwill in the world but still end up with no surprises at all.

    Hilarious

    Great show I just stumbled upon on BBC iPlayer randomly. I'm loving it. Easy watching sketch show with some uncomfortable but hilarious humour.

    Brilliant!

    Excellent show!! Best thing since the real McCoy's
    7BadBoyClub

    Very promising

    While not every sketch hit the mark, the majority did & when they were on target they were very funny.

    Not afraid to parody their own culture(s) & gloriously self deprecating this comedy is a breath of fresh air.

    Samson Kayo being the standout performer, he should have his own series of 'Midsomer M*********ing Murders'

    I hope the series is picked up
