Who can forget Vyvyan getting a pickaxe through his head,
or the farting on the couch, or Neil's green-stuff-exploding
cold that can only be cured by having a plastic garbage bag
attached to his skull with six-inch nails?
Laugh, I nearly
Well, we won't go into that.
Anyway, the first series of The Young Ones is available on
DVD and it features six just-over-half-hour episodes of the
boys in action. Not only do you get the following mini-adventures
- Demolition, Oil, Boring, Bomb, Interesting and Flood - but
you have a wonderful array of 1980s bands pop-in to do their
stuff.
There's Nine Below Zero, Radical Posture, Madness, Neneh
Cherry's Rip Rig and Panic, plus the pick of the bunch - Dexy's
Midnight Runners with Jackie Wilson Said.
If you want a bit of anarchic humour and some truly pants-wetting
stuff, then this series is for you.
Conclusion: Movie 80%, Extras 0%
