    A funny, short lived comedy.

    A seven part comedy series, with Les playing Les, an actor down on his luck, and low in mood.

    Why on Earth did this only last for one series, I've looked into it, and it seemed to perform well when it was released, Les was definitely incredibly popular.

    The quality of episode does vary a little, I found the episode with the pools coupons a little hard to follow, the one on the train, the one in the hospital were both great.

    Les is wonderful throughout, I may say that with a little bias, as for me he was a true legend, a comedy genius, he's joined by some great guests, Sharon Duce was great, but it's Roy Barraclough as always that shines through, him and Dawson were comedy gold.

    I am definitely reminded of Hancock's half hour, it's the same format, one or two episodes share a lot in common.

    I enjoyed it very much, 8/10.
