My brother sent me the complete series 1 of the BBC series Saxondale to me for my birthday. And it's hilarious!



Steve Coogan (24H Party People) is Tommy Saxondale. An ex-roadie who worked for all the famous bands back in the seventies. He's a pest controller now, but still kicking the system. Sad but brilliant. The episodes are full of 'quotes' and adventures off and with all the famous people he worked with. The opening and end tune are Dutch! House of the King and Hocus Pocus, both from Focus. The series are as painful as Ricky Gervais' 'Extras', the scenes and dialogues are hilarious, casting's perfect and you just have to see it. of course you'll find some nice scenes at YouTube.
