The Mind of Herbert Clunkerdunk

The extraordinarily wild mind of Spencer Jones is frequently misused on television - with him frequently popping up in vehicles that don't really suit him. Ultimately this is because at his core he is a very very silly man - as evidenced by his affably surreal stand-up.

A comedy short, then followed by these brief and brilliant series finally gives you a tiny glimpse into his televisual potential. In these concentrated little chunks he is a kaleidoscope of glorious madness. Both series do a good job of replicating the original flawless short - so a mixture of daily anxieties, musical interludes, talking props and the ever-present boggle-eyed wonder that is Dominic Coleman's terrifying Jonny Wallop. Even his equally idiosyncratic children appear in tiny, bizarre cameos. No scene is wasted. Every minute is a triumph.

I liked the bit where the girl did that thing like a balloon going big like pfffffff pffff pffffffff till she was big like a house and then Prprprprprprprphft! all around the room like a squirrel, but like a squirrel that was being just like a balloon going Prprprprprprprpft!

Did nothing for me. Overly contrived, trying waaaay to hard to be something it wishes it was, and falling woefully short. True surrealism invites you into it, not drags you kicking and screaming into a babbling soup of bubbling tripe !!! Did the pilot and 3 episodes, time I'll never get back. It seems this review needs 600 characters to be submitted, said enough on this, so how's the weather where you are???? What did u have for breakfast??? How long is a piece of string?? Did somebody fart or was it the cat??? Watched anything good lately because this is a verucca of a show. Just my opinion, go make your own... 🤷‍♀️

Some of the funniest and most inventive comedy TV I have ever see with jokes crammed in to each short episode. The fact that the episodes are only 10-15 minutes long adds to the enjoyment as the energy never lets up.

I've been looking forward to this ever since I saw the pilot episode. Ten minutes of silliness, playfulness, surrealness, songs & giggles. I chuckled a lot more in ten minutes than many entire 'comedy' films. If you're happy to indulge your inner child, then definitely worth a go.
