Losers - The Complete Series 1 & 2

Laugh-out-loud comedy about two unfulfilled 40-somethings trying to get the best out of life.

This is the complete series of Niall Ashdown and Luke Sorba's (strictly non-autobiographical) hilarious sitcom about two men in their forties who really don't know what to do with themselves.

The duo attempt (and mostly fail) to make their mark on the world and prove that they really aren't as pointless as they feel. Embarking on a series of haphazard adventures covering everything from the human condition to sex, food and some surprising things in-between, they are keen to prove to old school friends they have actually achieved in life. When Niall and Luke hatch a plan to become successful novelists they decide what's needed is a bunch of trendy half-baked ideas and a killer pitch and definitely not effort and tenacity. And what about sporting prowess? Surely they are in their prime with the stamina, dedication and physical fitness to make an impact?

Things don't quite go to plan when they find themselves trapped in a cable car on a ski trip with two about-to-be-newlyweds and decide to dole out relationship advice. The directionless twosome never quite seem to get things going in their own lives, particularly when they are forced to consider their own mortality at a funeral. And the less said about the fancy dress party, the better...
