Advantages: None

Disadvantages: Not funny or original

This so called comedy featured two main characters Ritchie and Eddie who were played by Rick Mayall and Ade Edmondson. Both of them had starred in the comedy The Young Ones which I really enjoyed and found very funny so I was really disappointed to find that this follow up show featuring the two was quite so awful.

The two characters share a rundown London flat and the humour is very purile as it involves lots of bodily functions and almost cartoon violence.

Neither of the characters are that original, just grown up versions of the roles they played in The Young Ones and as such I found that the show had nothing new to really offer the viewer.

Ritchie was the slimy pervert while Eddie was just a headcase and totally out of control. At times it was like watching an adult version of Tom and Jerry with swearing and sexual references.

Overall this is not a show I would recommend as it contained few if any laughs.

Summary: Awful programme
