Episode 1
Frankie "Flesh-Eater" Harris's favourite moments of mirth. David Jason and John Bird in post-apocalyptic sketches. From 2016.
David Jason stars alongside John Bird, Jan Ravens and Rory Bremner in David Renwick鈥檚 dark and quirky comedy sketch show that takes a not-altogether-factual look at the history of comedy鈥�.
What comedy sketches would you most want at your side to face the end of the world?
In the opening episode, interviewer JP Doom interviews Frankie 鈥淔lesh Eater鈥� Harris about a life at the top of the Most Wanted list, and discusses what sketch-based chuckles he would choose to lighten his heart if he found himself stranded in a post-apocalyptic wasteland.
And there are clips from spurious comedy greats such as Mace and Dixon鈥檚 鈥渢he Fianc茅e of Frankenstein鈥� sketch; the ultimate Mastermind parody from Jenkin Spleen and Helena Handcart; and the fast-talking lunacy of the Klutz Brothers' classic 鈥淎 Day at the Proctologists鈥�.
