Review Bottom - Series 3 / 2 Entertain Video:Rik Mayall and Adrian Edmondson give the flat-share sitcom a much needed kick up the Bottom in the show which, alongside Men Behaving Badly (1992-8) injected new life into a legendarily dire genre. With glorious comic gusto they play Richie Rich and Eddie Hitler, a pair of misfits barely surviving unemployment in a Hammersmith hovel. They spend their life in frustration, minus female company or money, in facile schemes to entertain or better themselves, their best intentions always proving the catalyst for hilariously OTT cartoon-style violence. The humour benefits from being rude, crude and surreal, and though happily bereft of subtlety or sense the situations and set-pieces are always superbly constructed, delivered and directed. But that's only to be expected from a show that essentially presents two of The Young Ones a decade down the line. -Gary S Dalkin.

Review The Catherine Tate Show - Series 1 & 2 Box Set [2004] / 2 Entertain Video:Even though her career pinnacle may now be getting the British Prime Minister to utter her catchphrases on television, there's much gold to be found in this Catherine Tate, which brings together the first two series of her popular sketch show. The format of the programme is fairly traditional, as Tate lends her writing and performance magic to a broad spectrum of characters. The headliners, of course, are the foul-mouthed Nan (and new viewers be warned, she's a very foul mouthed Nan!) and Lauren the schoolgirl, replete with her impenetrable chav-talk and infamous "Bovvered" catchphrase. But plenty of other delights lie beneath the surface, and while some elements of The Catherine Tate Show drag on a little past their welcome, there are umpteen laughs to be had in this set. To some extent, The Catherine Tate Show has lived in the shadow of the other sketch show of the moment, the wildly popular Little Britain. But that's unfair. Tate has plenty up her sleeve to give Messrs Lucas and Walliams a run for their money, and frequently does. A little bit more work on the script editing could really make the difference. But for now, The Catherine Tate Show has far more going for it than it has problems, and the delights across the two series packaged together here more than justify the asking price. Even Tony Blair is likely to agree…-Jon Foster.

Review Hancock: The Best Of Hancock / 2 Entertain Video:The Very Best of Hancock isn't just a miscellaneous compilation of his television work, rather it is five of the six episodes from Hancock's last season with the BBC in 1961. Writers Ray Galton and Alan Simpson followed Hancock to television after making him a star on radio, and it is to them as much as to Hancock's lugubrious persona that these few shows owe their classic status. In a conscious effort to throw the spotlight more firmly on himself, Hancock had parted company with his radio cohorts in the transition to TV, and here for the first time he also dispensed with stalwart comedy partner Sid James. Thanks to Galton and Simpson, however, the gamble paid off handsomely and these shows remain some of the best sitcoms ever created for British television. No longer a resident of Railway Cuttings, East Cheam, here we find Hancock in Earl's Court in the first episode, "The Bedsitter". Whether trying vainly to live the life of a carefree bachelor, playing an old country character in a thinly disguised version of "The Archers" ("The Bowmans"), wrestling with the complexities of valve radio ("The Radio Ham"), annoying everyone in an awkward situation ("The Lift") or giving that famous pint of blood ("The Blood Donor"), Galton and Simpson provide Hancock with every opportunity to exercise his wonderful pomposity and pretentiousness with scripts full of comic invention and eminently quotable lines. Hugh Lloyd and June Whitfield are among the supporting cast. On the DVD: The disc includes a good recent interview with Galton and Simpson, who talk about their sometimes difficult relationship with the star. After Hancock used cue cards while recording "The Blood Donor", they reveal, he decided never to bother learning any lines again, even though this had a detrimental effect on his ability to use comic facial expressions ever afterwards. The picture and sound quality are what might be expected from TV of this vintage. [+]-Mark Walker.
