Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Evengyny Thanks for the memories!

RyothChatty ridiculous rating

Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

ivanjames Wow, I must say I'm amazed at the negative reaction. I loved Harry Enfield and Chums and eagerly awaited this series, and was not disappointed at all. I've watched the whole series at least 5 times in the last week since I bought the DVD.The sketches are generally based on observations of things in real life and are things I particularly find amusing, and I think Harry and Paul have dealt with them exceptionally well. Other sketches seems to be just a bit bonkers which is also quite fun I guess. Particular favourites of mine were 'I saw you coming', the builders, and the surgeons Sheridan and Sir Charles Curtis. Indeed some sketches were miss, for example the Jamie and Oliver one and the ones about Pete Doherty being arrested. Some I found to be slow burners but immensely funny when I got into them, for example the Nelson Mandela one and the 'Leccy Spongers'.So, don't let the above comments put you of watching it by any means, there are some people that really love the series! As for comments about the humour being too 'obvious'- firstly I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing, and also the previous 'Harry Enfield and Chums' has plenty of so-called 'obvious' humour and that seems to be well-loved. I would genuinely say that this is just as funny as 'Chums', and it's more of the same (ie, predominantly 'class-based' humour: 'The slobs' and 'Tim nice but dim' and others from 'Chums' and 'I saw you coming', 'The builders', 'Clive the Geordie' etc from 'Ruddy Hell').

J-Stone-2 What happened to these two former heavyweight champs of Brit comedy? I used to think in the early 90s that Paul Whitehouse couldn't be unfunny if he tried and I really liked the Fast Show, Hary Enfield and Chums, etc.Maybe time really has caught up with them and they can't do it anymore, just like boxers who go on too long.It's sad because I was really looking forward to this 'comeback'. You get the feeling that Whitehouse was at a loose end after his comedy partner ran into his legal troubles and that Enfield has lost whatever he had (which was always less than Whitehouse in his heyday)The only half decent sketch is the posh scaffolders... the rest are pathetic. I would rather these two never did anything again if this is all they've got. Quit while you are ahead guys!

nqure Echo most of the negative reviews posted here. Like them, I am a fan of Harry Enfield/Paul Whitehouse, so this new series is a real mess. There is potential, Enfield/Whitehouse are cynically aware (I Saw You Coming) but the sketches are sloppily written, poorly developed and lack punchlines. I quite like the Polski girls because it's clear the customer fancies them and they treat him politely but with obvious disinterest so that he always leaves the cafe confused. I liked the Abramovich send-up but after a while versions of the same sketch pall.But it's a show which could have done with more creative input and editing. I flicked through one of Harry Enfield's old books and he would leave out poorly received sketches after unfavourable reactions from the studio audience. One can only surmise that the sketches not included must be worse than the very hit-miss ones included. The Nelson Mandela sketches are appalling. But I kept checking my watch during the last episode, almost willing it to end and be put out of my misery.The sad fact may be after his disappointing SKY show, Harry and his comedy partner Whitehouse have simply run out of gas and ideas. Comedy dates quickly and perhaps time has caught up with this once great duo. Previous characters would gradually leave a mark on the nation's consciousness (Stavros, Loadsamoney, Mr Don't, Tim Nice But Dim, the Slobs) but none in the present show will be remembered with any great fondness.

ShadeGrenade You know how it is when you meet an old girlfriend in the street, and wonder what it was you saw in her in the first place? I felt that way after watching the first few episodes of this new series.Harry Enfield and Paul Whitehouse have been brilliant together in so many shows, yet here they could barely raise a chuckle. As one sketch after another went down like a lead balloon, I became embarrassed for them. 'Revolver' was better, and that was dreadful. Why ridicule a decent man like Nelson Mandela? Where was the humour in the Polish coffee shop sketches? And the obese schoolboys were considerably less funny than the 'Billy Bunter' comic strips I used to read as a boy. Whoever came up with the idea for the 'Laurel & Hardy' spoof on 'Brokeback Mountain' deserves to be horsewhipped.Enfield and Whitehouse should have made an effort to keep on board Ian Hislop, Nick Newman, and Charlie Higson, who wrote for them so successfully in the past. Their replacements are utterly hopeless. The absence of Kathy Burke is noticeable too.Part of the problem for Enfield is that his earlier work is repeated endlessly on Sky, which means in effect he is in competition with himself. I do not see the point of watching an off-form Harry when a click of a button on my remote can conjure up the man at his peak.The show may well improve ( I hope it does ), but the signs so far are it will shred what's left of Harry and Paul's reputations. Perhaps they should team up with Ben Elton ( another '80's comedy icon currently making a chump of himself in an effort to win a new audience ) and do a show called 'The Three Ninnies'!
