After many, many years apart, it’s genuinely great to see comedy heroes Paul Whitehouse and Harry Enfield reunited for a brand new sketch show. And while Ruddy Hell! It’s Harry and Paul! doesn’t really come close to touching the brilliance of their work in the 1990s, there’s still quite a lot to enjoy.

All six episodes of the first series of Ruddy Hell! It’s Harry and Paul! are collected in this set, and you’ll meet plenty of new characters along the way. Take Jose Arrogantio, a football manager who clearly has no real-life equivalent, American tourists Pam and Ronald, ‘I Saw You Coming’ and overweight teenagers Jamie and Oliver.

Setting up so many characters does mean that Ruddy Hell! It’s Harry and Paul! does take some time to get up to speed, but it soon starts delivering a fair few laughs. Sure, it’s crying out in places for Kathy Burke, who starred with Whitehouse and Enfield in the outstanding Harry Enfield and Chums, but the pair nonetheless layer enough good work in here to make a second series a worthwhile venture.

For now, this first outing is a mixed bag, with a lot that doesn’t work, but a fair amount that does. Fortunately, there’s enough within Ruddy Hell! It’s Harry and Paul! to nonetheless make it worth your time. --Jon Foster
