Ideal - Series 7

Johnny Vegas returns as Moz in a brand new series of the seriously twisted comedy dope opera Ideal. With guest stars Janeane Garofalo (West Wing), Kara Tointon (EastEnders), Rula Lenska (Coronation Street) and rock legend Paul Weller.

When Moz's finances hit rock bottom, he reluctantly returns to hash dealing. However, Nicki - the ex who lives next door - is already running her own dealing business. Soon, a price war kicks off, with each desperately undercutting the other. Meanwhile, across the landing, the beautiful Carmel and big gay Brian set up a very special brothel.

Psycho Paul's gang comes under threat from a gang of deadly gingers, whilst pretentious synth-pop duo Silicone Valets finally split - with surprising consequences. Then, Tilly mistakes some kid's paintings for outsider artworks by Moz and starts organising an exhibition. Could love, fame and fortune be just around the corner? Or will the Red Mist descend and destroy everything?

Always evolving, yet instantly recognisable, Ideal mixes dark comedy with tension, thrills, counter cultural satire, hallucinogenic visuals and the coolest music on TV.

First released: Sunday 24th July 2011
