Hilarious and no messin’.
BBC Asian Network Comedy
A pacy, energetic performance of engaging material liberally flecked with wry, savvy lines… It makes for a triumphant package.

Charlie George and Jennie Falconer make you want to put them in your pocket and take them away with you. They are as warm and gooey as a treacle tart, but they will make you laugh like a hyena!
