Putting the "com" into sitcom, Terry McIlroy and Colin King (Ian Kirkby and Simon Greenall) are back with more expert analysis of a Premier League prat. Sex expert Tracey Cox is also on hand this week, to explain the benefits of a certain bedroom technique that Pete and his friends can't stop talking about.

The trouble with this show is that Pete (Rafe Spall) is so thoroughly unlikeable that instead of being the star of the show his tedious adventures are little more than an unwelcome distraction from Terry and Colin's running commentary to the action.

Although it is very funny, if there was a way of just watching these two on the red button - and removing Pete (and his mates' endless stream of annoying girlfriends) from the equation altogether - the show would be much improved.

Come Dine With Me has Dave Lamb. Big Brother has Marcus Bentley. Match Of The Day had John Motson and this brilliant new show has Colin King and Terry McIlroy - the world's very first sitcommentators.

Played by Simon Greenall and Ian Kirkby these two are the gimmick that turns what would have been a reasonably amusing but fairly predictable sitcom into a work of utter genius.

With meaningless statistics, on-screen pie-charts and action replays they provide a hilarious blow-by-blow commentary on sports reporter Pete (played by Rafe Spall), whose love life amounts to a series of own goals and sendings-off.

In tonight's pilot episode Pete's latest potential conquest is a girl named Chloe, who is under the impression that he cares passionately about the environment (he doesn't). And we meet all his friends - best mate Rob who's engaged to an excruciating blonde named Anna and housemate Kurt, a Zimbabwean played by Waterloo Road's Chris Geere, who's obsessed with spreading the word about safe sex.

Most promising of all is Pete's nemesis Jake (Daniel Ings) - a dashingly handsome bearded eco-warrior who has just come back from watching the North Pole melt.

And here's another statistic for you: did you know Simon Greenall is also the voice of Aleksandr Orlov in the Compare The Meerkat commercials? Make this one a regular Friday night fixture.
