THE SECOND SERIES OF THE BAFTA AWARD WINNING SKETCH SHOW
Comedians David Mitchell and Robert Webb return to DVD in October with the release of THAT MITCHELL AND WEBB LOOK - SERIES 2, the second serving of their hilarious and distinctively daft BAFTA Award winning comedy sketch show.
Featuring all six episodes of the series, the DVD also includes a "wangernumbing" amount of extras, from interviews with Mitchell and Webb to a detailed look at the making of That Mitchell And Webb Look and a plentifulness (what a lovely word that is) of outtake sketches that were shot but didn't make it to the TV broadcast.
As with the first series, this one is packed with stand-alone sketches featuring a host of brand new characters as well of plenty of old favourites, including the drunken, down-and-out detective Sir Digby Chicken Caesar and his equally inebriated sidekick Ginger, and the host and contestants of the maths quiz show everybody is talking about, Numberwang! There's even a trailer for the forthcoming blockbuster movie, The Numberwang Code ("The world is full of numbers... but are they good or evil?"), which is a bit like The Da Vinci Code but even more nonsensical (if you can believe that) and thankfully lacking the presence of Tom Hanks and the doe-eyed French bird from Amelie.
Also on hand to tickle you in the places you shouldn't be touched except by a medical professional are the world's dodgiest panda, a robot who can nearly smell the difference between cheese and petrol, a very smooth scarecrow, the pink jumpsuit-clad Helivets who come from the sky to save your pets, and the rather unfortunate Boy With An Arse For A Face, who you really shouldn't laugh at. But, hey, he's got an arse for a face so why not make the most out of a bad situation?
THAT MITCHELL AND WEBB LOOK - SERIES 2 (cert. 15) will be released on DVD (£19.99) on 20th October 2008. Special Features include interviews with David Mitchell, Robert Webb and producer Gareth Edwards, a comprehensive behind the scenes look at the making of the series, outtakes and more.
