Andrew Mickel, Such Small Portions, 25th January 2013As befits a sketch show that made its debut online, this takes aim at the internet and gaming culture, beginning with a Facebook morality tale that's as likely to make you wince as guffaw. Appropriately, the comics include YouTube stars Chris Kendall and Jenny Bede, who made a name for herself after spoofing Cheryl Cole, while Peter Serafinowicz supplies a deadpan voiceover. Highlights include a Sherlock sketch in which the investigator's ability to see clues everywhere proves more hindrance than help, and a prime minister who can't tear himself away from his laptop.
