------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083402/episodes ------------------------------------------------------------- S01E01 The Comic Strip Presents: Five Go Mad in Dorset (2Nov1982) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0544869/ In 'Five Go Mad In Doset' the 5 (including Timmy, the dog) go to stay with their auntie and uncle in Devon. When they get there, they find out that their uncle, a scientist, has been kidnapped and the gang go about trying to find him.

"Beat Generation" uses Black & White footage to convey a lovely sense of taking off the rose tinted spectacles about the 60's and really seeing the bleakness and drowning sea of competition and sense of misdirection of the youth generation. Quotes: Eleanor: What's it like to be successful, Alan? Alan: Success? Well, it's like going to an orgy in clean underpants. Eleanor: Oh, wow! Alan: It's Marlon Brando throwing up in your bathroom. Eleanor: Oh, crazy! http://rapidshare.com/files/106801209/TCSPBG.part1.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/106805465/TCSPBG.part2.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/106809656/TCSPBG.part3.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/106811518/TCSPBG.part4.rar ------------------------------------------------------------- S01E04 The Comic Strip Presents: Bad News Tour (24Jan1983 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0544862/   Rating: 8.1 Bad News is a spoof heavy metal band created in 1983 as part of the UK TV series The Comic Strip Presents. The band is often referred to as 'The Comic Strip's answer to Spinal Tap', despite the fact that This Is Spinal Tap1 was not released until 1984. The four members of Bad News are: - Vim Fuego - the egotistical vocalist and lead guitarist, played by Adrian Edmondson - Colin Grigson - the posh and unpopular bassist, played by Rik Mayall - Den Dennis - the remarkably stupid rhythm guitarist, played by Nigel Planer - Spider Webb - the hyperactive drummer, played by Peter Richardson Their first film, Bad News Tour, follows the band as they set off on the first date of an extremely low budget British tour. Overcoming a broken down van and constant arguments, they finally arrive at the Roxy theatre in Grantham, where they play to four people and a dog. Due to the popularity of the first film, the Comic Strip team took the unusual step of filming a sequel. 1987's More Bad News shows the band re-forming for a one-off concert, then signing a record contract and eventually playing the Monsters of Rock festival at Castle Donnington, where they are beaten up by the notoriously unforgiving crowd. While the rest of the 'documentary' was a spoof, the footage of the band on stage at Donnington was genuine, as the comics came dangerously close to becoming a real band in 1987. Having played live at the Donnington festival, the band went on to release a comically poor version of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody and a self-titled album, both produced by Queen's Brian May. The single reached number 44 in the UK charts, and the album number 69. The band released one further single, Cashing In On Christmas, and an album of studio out-takes, Bootleg, before calling it a day. The band have so far resisted a Spinal Tap-style comeback, although Edmondson, Planer and Richardson re-formed briefly for a Comic Relief special in 1991, and a compilation album, The Cash-In Compilation, was released in 1993. http://rapidshare.com/files/105614679/CSPBNT.part1.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/105622839/CSPBNT.part2.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/105630928/CSPBNT.part3.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/105636148/CSPBNT.part4.rar ------------------------------------------------------------- S01E05 The Comic Strip Presents: Summer School (31Jan1983) ------------------------------------------------------------- S02E01 The Comic Strip Presents: Five Go Mad on Mescalin (2Nov1983) ------------------------------------------------------------- S02E02 The Comic Strip Presents: Dirty Movie (7Jan1984) ------------------------------------------------------------- S02E03 The Comic Strip Presents: Susie (14Jan1984) ------------------------------------------------------------- S02E04 The Comic Strip Presents: A Fistful of Travellers' Cheques (21Jan1984) ------------------------------------------------------------- S02E05 The Comic Strip Presents: Gino: Full Story and Pics (28Jan1984) ------------------------------------------------------------- S02E06 The Comic Strip Presents: Eddie Monsoon, a Life (4Feb1984) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0544862/    Rating: 7.9 Relentless alcoholic, drug addict, and fame-obsessed TV personality Eddie Monsoon is the subject of a Channel 4 expose that looks back over his life and loves, while he lies bedridden in a rehab hospital. Plenty of laughs here, but mixed with a touch of pathos, brilliantly conveyed by Adrian Edmondson in the eponymous role, who manages to make such a pathetic character so endearing and poignant. http://rapidshare.com/files/106815658/TCSPEMAL.part1.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/106820181/TCSPEMAL.part2.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/106824686/TCSPEMAL.part3.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/106827893/TCSPEMAL.part4.rar ------------------------------------------------------------- S02E07 The Comic Strip Presents: Slags (11Feb1984) ------------------------------------------------------------- S02E08 The Comic Strip Presents: The Bullshitters: Roll out the Gunbarrel (3Nov1984) ------------------------------------------------------------- S03E01 The Comic Strip Presents: Consuela, or, the New Mrs. Saunders (1Jan1986) ------------------------------------------------------------- S03E02 The Comic Strip Presents: Private Enterprise (2Jan1986) ------------------------------------------------------------- S04E01 The Comic Strip Presents: The Strike (20Feb1988) ------------------------------------------------------------- S04E02 The Comic Strip Presents: More Bad News (27Feb1988) ------------------------------------------------------------- S04E03 The Comic Strip Presents: Mr. Jolly Lives Next Door (5Mar1988) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095664/   Rating: 8.8 Rik and Ade have never presented a sleazier duo than the two proprioters of Dreamytime Escorts. Stunningly outrageous scenes of alcoholic mayhem and painfully funny violence make this highly underated comedy a fore runner to the vastly inferior Bottom and something of a cult classic. There are splendid cameos by 70's quizshow king Nicholas Parsons (as himself!) ,the legendary Peter Cook (Mr. Jolly) and a soundtrack of classic Tom Jones hits. Peter Richardson is excellent as the shady gang leader- Mr Lovejuice. The best example of British comedy in existence and enough quotable lines to satisfy a student bar for years.
