After three multi award-winning series on BBC Radio 4, 'the next Mitchell and Webb' (Times) are back at the Fringe with a brand-new show that's 'hysterical' (Independent), 'masterful' (Sunday Times), and 'gorgeously skewed' (Guardian). Expect a 'very classy, very funny' (Telegraph) hour from the creators of BBC Three's Oi, Leonardo! and writers for Famalam (BBC Three) and Tracey Ullman's Show (BBC One). As seen on W1A (BBC Two) and Wannabe (BBC Three). 'The most exciting new comedy duo working today' (David Walliams). **** (Times). **** (Guardian). **** (Telegraph). **** (Sunday Times). **** (Chortle.co.uk). ***** (Skinny). ***** (List).
