One of their very best.

Great episode from the first series in 1982 channel 4. I loved the second series. Dirty Movie, A Fistfull of Travellers Cheques, Gino-Full Story and Pics, Eddie Monsoon-A Life. The Young One's and The Comic Strip Presents both burst onto our screens around the same time. What a great time to be a teenager and watching these 2 programme's, plus Rik Mayall as Kevin Turvey. Great memories.

this may trigger your anxiety disorder. love the short scene as the camera looks at the road, desmond leaning in to see if they're coming and exiting the shot. meanwhile the foreboding chaos that ensues.
