Overview

Synopsis:

Loud, anarchic, surreal and juvenile and - most of all - outrageously funny comedy featuring the lunatic exploits of four students of Scumbag College: Vyv, the punk; socially aware and politically conscious Rik; Neil, the hippy; and Mike, the well-dressed smoothie. They share a dilapidated house in North London owned by their dodgy landlord Jerzy Balowski. They are the least compatible housemates it is possible to imagine and, when they are not tearing pieces out of each other, they manage to get involved in the most bizarre of comic escapades.

WARNING: This programme contains some strong language and adult humour.

  1. A true classic

    16 October 2009
    Arriving like a migraine to conservative comedy, The Young Ones raised the bar set by such shows as Monty Python and Not The Nine O'Clock News and injected it with even more anarchy than one thought possible. Depraved, crude, nonsensical, slapstick and very, very funny, it also introduced many to not just the comedic talents of the main cast but a variety of cameos by such well-known names as Dawn French, Jennifer Saunders and Lenny Henry. There's also a load of great music performances by legends like Madness, Motorhead, The Damned and Dexy's Midnight Runners.
