All my friends loved this when it was on but it was panned by the critics, probably because they didn't want Johnny Vaughan to be even more successful than he already was at the time. Shame on them.
i can get a gram of charlie for £30, plus my g/f is a brass.. my dole money goes way further than he's hahaha by the way that was a joke to any coppers reading lol !!
@danpaxton The ratings were not what the BBC wanted and the show got a mention on MSN's "TV Flops" feature, with Johnny himself saying he didn't like the show in a 2004 interview.
Regardless of how well this done, I liked it and would love to see a DVD release of the 8 episodes that were made :). It was promoted quite a bit by the BBC, but poor scheduling and channel placement (BBC 2) held it back from doing as well as it deserved to :(.
think this "orrible was excellent problem was it was on bbc 2 ,think this is a cracking comedy and think someone should try and bring it back on our tv screens
Can't believe i have found this on here, its good to see other people agreeing that this was underated and so wrongly slated...Bring it back! oh this scene is ace.
why o why did the critics hate it? such a good show

This series was excellent, absolutely no idea why it got slated so widely. Critics clearly have no sense of humour.

Think it's more an inside joke, if you know the type of people you get the jokes. Personally I think it's fucking funny.

It is a good series, I downloaded it. Last I checked it was seventy odd quid on amazon.
Anyway, isn't holsten cheaper??
