I was too young to watch it at the time but my brother enjoyed this. He liked Ben Elton's stand-up routines and also Fry & Laurie's sketches which made him record and watch their own series A Bit Of Fry & Laurie when BBC2 began showing it in 1989.

Remember watching both, it doesn't seem that long ago  As there were only 4 tv channels back then it was quite an event being a live show. Ben Elton doesn't seem to be liked by many people including his fellow comedians but watching as a teenager at school he was quite a cult figure. You'd talk about this show at school & it was clear that not that many people watched it, nor 'The Young Ones' which didn't seem to take off until it was either repeated or had a second series. People watching Channel 4 as it is today would have no clue how different it was back in the 80s. |
