Customer Reviews

Poppadum Frenzy
This has to be one of the funniest programs I have ever seen. If your a Ritchie Rich and Eddie(Catflap)Hittler aka Rik and Ade Fan this is a must absolutely hilarious. My friends and I still quote this program chapter and verse to one another over 20 years on just shows you how memorable it is. Only complaint is that the BBC have really gone to town on the editing. I still have a video tape yes! a video tape of this I recorded off the TV back in the 80's and they have cut out a lot one of the best moments gone is the pick pocket scene were Ritchie sings lyrics from 'Oliver', superb. Look out for some of the facial expressions Eddie pulls classic comedy and not a word spoken. Buy now or regret it when it's packed of to the shelves of history absolute must if your into Rik and Ade. Love It

Truly awful. Worse even than I remembered.
This series has been mostly overlooked by TV since its first run. And rightly so. It is awful. It was shown again recently on one of the comedy channels and it is just cringeworthy. Imagine all the excesses of the young ones characters but without any of the comedy, and you have got it in one.

This show flopped, not because it rattled anybody's cage, but because it sucked big time.

Fortunately it didn't kill the careers of any of the cast, however, I bet they wish that this sleeping dog would be allowed to lie.

Great
I prefer this to Bottom and The Young Ones.
Im not sure why but i just found it funnier and pleasanter. Why it didnt go on beyond one series is beyond me.
