Ben (Gone with Noakes) Miller and partner, Alexander Armstrong, have strung together a surprisingly imaginative and fluid series of sketches which revel in a strong sense of the absurd. What the material lacks in consistency is compensated for by the pair's highly choreographed physical routines and their musical talents, notably a breathless Sixties car chase and some devilish whistling. The show's discovery is their Scandic singing duo, Norway's Wayne and Garth if you will, with their heavily accented, cod MOR lyrics: 'Oh Birgit / Listen to which I say / 'Oh my God, we're happy as rock 'n' roll.' ' MTV, are you listening?
