Delightfully daft
This very daft sketch show - from David Mitchell and Robert Webb, who brought us Peep Show - continues to pick up critical acclaim. A fairly fast-paced half hour, to get the full joke from some of the sketches tonight it does help if you're reasonably acquainted with US drama imports such as House and Shark.

If not, there's more obvious fare such as the world's least politically-correct panto, a historian who has trouble controlling his arms and a supervillain who gets bogged down in health and safety regulations.

Worth a look.

COMEDY: That Mitchell and Webb Look, BBC 2 at 21:00 on Thursday 28th February 2008

Off-beat comedy sketch show starring David Mitchell and Robert Webb. A historian has trouble controlling his arms, a supervillain gets bogged down in health and safety, and there's the world's least politically-correct panto. And a look behind the scenes at the admirable work the comedy duo do in the local pheasant hospital.
