Human
Remains
DVD Release: 29th September 2003
"Sick, sick, sick. And truly wonderful" - Time Out
A darkly
comic series about six very different, very offbeat and very engrossing
couples who unwittingly expose the dynamics of their dysfunctional
relationships.
Using
a spoof documentary style in each of these six self-contained stories,
Human Remains hones in on a different odd couple in each episode,
who gradually and unwittingly expose their unhinged, dysfunctional
relationships to the naked eye of the camera.
From
a bald neurotic to a male chauvinist fianc茅, the characters
conduct open, honest and shocking interviews as the series sets
new boundaries for extraordinary relationships in a seemingly ordinary
world. Human Remains takes a documentary-style look at the lighter
side of unconventional couples, as each episode develops into something
funny and touching and deeply absorbing.
Fresh
from his award-winning triumph in 'Marion And Geoff ', Rob Brydon
demonstrates his stunning versatility, this time assuming one half
of some compulsively bizarre couples in these darkly comic 'mockumentaries'.
The brilliant actress, comedienne and writer, Julia Davis ('Big
Train', 'People Like Us', 'Jam') unreservedly plays his admirably
mismatched foil.
Human
Remains has already collected many awards after just one series
- Winner of a Banff Rockie for Comedy, RTS Best Performance Award
2001 (Julia Davis) and Best Comedy Actor (Rob Brydon) at the British
Comedy Awards 2001.
