Though each of the characters is deluded in their own way -- either about their talent, intelligence or the success of their romantic relationships -- we can't help but root for them.

MC Grindah from BBC Three's pirate radio gang reveals the secrets of a banging Xmas rave.
Allan Mustafa, The Guardian, 18th December 2015The first episode in the second series for the hit, west London-based mockumentary following pirate radio proprietors and all-round incompetents MC Grindah and DJ Beats (Allan Mustafa and Hugo Chegwin). Idiocy ensues as Grindah prepares for daughter Angel's "christianing", enlisting the help of jack-of-all-trades Chabuddy G and the drug-addled Steves. Meanwhile, Beats is on a mission to prove that he would make the ideal godfather. Fresh, farcical comedy with a soft spot for suburban loserdom.
