Sketch shows rarely justify the sum of their parts, but there is sometimes an exception. Adapted from the Radio 4 show, the cowards in question are comedians Tim Key, Tom Basden, Stefan Golaszewski and Lloyd Woolf and their act works because the sketches are a blend of the subtle, imaginative and absurd. Scenarios include an excruciatingly dark Russian-roulette dinner-party game.

Tom Basden, Stefan Golaszewski, Tim Key and Lloyd Woolf's delightful sketch show returns to Radio 4 for a second series.

Theirs is a performance that likes to keep it real - instead of larger-than-life characters, they bring out the comedy in the everyday. Not that their screations are average Joes: in one sketch Mr Sneeze comes to blows with the other Mr Men, while in another, Harrison Ford desperately kowtows to a casting director.

It's about left-field observations rather than catchphrases, and makes for a refreshing, rib-tickling change.
