I found this program purely by chance, while channel hopping.
It's totally bonkers and I love it, I have a fairly well developed off beat sense of fun, and it tickles my funny bone.
I'd found yonks ago not to analyse comedy, just go with the flow.
I made a cardinal sin of actually wondering why I was laughing, approximately half way through a comedy sketch. Once I'd got the notion in my bonce I couldn't dislodge it from my mind.
So now I try and simply go with the flow, as I had always tried to do with new comedy programs hitherto.
I actually recognise some of the actors in it from previous programs, I knew the blokes face that plays Brian, though I've never seen the TV show he was in.
I recognised the bloke playing the bar keeper Herman, but couldn't remember where from. Then I looked on IMDb for reviews, and saw a picture of him in Last of the Summer Wine, as a local copper.
I'd seen the local wizard Howell before as the TV character Dennis Pennis.
I've also seen Steve Koogan who appears as the circus Ringmaster.
I'd say to any doubting Thomas's give it a go, and watch it for more than the odd episode.
Of course the entire show is totally Odd, which for me gives an excellent reason for watching it. It's original a real one off, weird and zany. With what I found to be an interesting premise, especially seeing its development in later episodes. Of the action taking place across different dimensions and realities, between London and Munty, present time and prehistoric.
