Yes! Very good TV show, as black as black comedy gets. I bought the live show, and still haven't watched it!

There was some funny bits in it. Like the guy from the circus, Papa Lazarou. I laughed for ages at that bit when he asks the woman "Wanna buy some pegs, Dave?". I dunno why I found it so funny. I'm not the biggest fan of it but it's pretty good.

A comedy that took itself seriously while being completely off the wall. It could only ever work.

Though i havent seen an episode for ages, for some reason the repeats have dried up recently.

The best dark comedy ever. Papa Lazarou cracks me up. I'm really looking forward to the film.
