Desmond's - Series 2
Channel 4's classic hit comedy returns for a second series on DVD. Desmond's barber shop, in Peckham, south-east London is the hub of the community's social scene, where you can eat, drink, watch videos, and if you're lucky, even get your hair cut.
Desmond Ambrose is its owner, a self-taught barber who knows only one style - short-back-and-sides. Born in Guyana, he still dreams of going back there to retire, unlike his enterprising wife Shirley, who has successfully crossed the cultural divide with the aid of their three children, Michael, Gloria and Sean.
