Pure unadulterated genius
One of my favourite programs of all time. It's consistently unhinged and bizarre without ever seeming gratuitous. Every character is cast and played flawlessly, every episode is so unique yet after watching several in a row you just feel a little drunk and struggle to pick out where one ended and the next began.The whole atmosphere of the comedy is oddly... Cosy, for lack of a better word. The random bursts of song and the otherworldly narrative from scene to scene makes it feel like a dream. At the same time it's also incredibly quotable. Harry Peacock and Geoffrey McGivern have to be some of the most underrated comedy actors in the country, and Doon Mackichan is utterly brilliant.
