Robert Florence and Iain Connell write and perform this sketch show set in a fictional Scottish location that somehow seems eerily familiar. Burnistoun has its own newspaper, furniture store, gym, pub and all-you-can-eat buffet restaurant, radio station and even an ice-cream van. Our Review: A very well written sketch show which features some excellent original ideas and characters. A couple of sketches do fall flat and drag on a bit, but overall this is a tightly written and very funny show with far more hits than misses. It certainly deserves to move onto UK-wide exposure. |
