Gimme, Gimme,Gimme.

A Great British comedy.

One of the funniest British comedies in the last decade.

The plot is very simple; Linda shares a flat with Tom.
Linda is a great big trollop with the manners of a diuretic pig and all the subtlety of a large brick through several plate glass windows.
Once described as a slapper on Viagra, she is a real man-eater.
Believing herself to be utterly beautiful, she is often confused by people's attitude to her looks and loud clothes.
Olive from "On the buses" after a night on the beer would best describe her.
But sadly, all she wants is to be loved.

Tom is a great big Puff, (according to Linda). He is a struggling actor trying to break into television and has even had a walk on part in 'Bad girls', and doesn't he go on about it!
The biggest drama queen in the world
And bitchy to go with it.
Again sadly all he wants is to be loved.

Jez and Suze live down stairs and are sickeningly in love. Often referring to each other as pumpkin, cupcake and sweethams much to the disgust of Tom and Linda.
Linda constantly tries to bed Jez much to his horror!
They try to be perfect neighbours unaware of how much Tom and Linda hate them.
And finally, Beryl, their landlady and Ex prostitute. She is crude and not at all bothered in reminding everyone of her last profession.

Tom.
Linda.
Jez.
Suze.
Beryl.


The jokes are predictable but none the less funny. A bit like 'Bottom' but without the violent slapstick.
Tom & Linda have a love hate relationship but for all the many insults they realise that no one else could possibly put up with them.
Crudity and many vulgar insults are the main stay of the show.
The writing in the show is sublime and you can imagine the cast having lots of laughs filming it.
The weekly episodes where not difficult to follow. The show has no social or political axes to grind so just basks in its own madness.

The humour and language in the show is not for everyone and some of the jokes and humour might cause offense.

You will need to be an open minded person before you start watching it.

You will either love it or hate it.

Summary: Laugh out loud funny.
