Nightingales (1990– )
9/10
Just wonderful!
27 February 2024
I used to love this back in the 90s and, with a select group of mates, still shout the odd phrase from the show (tek his trousers down! - is there anybody there? Etc.). The set pieces and surreal comedy are brilliantly crafted and references to high art juxtaposed with popular culture works in such a marvellous way that it really cannot be beat. It is such a shame that they only did the 2 series but, given it was on quite late at night, and the humopur was so off-the-wall, also understandable. It already has a quiet, cult status among a small, but loyal group of people, I am pretty sure it will be remembered for years to come and will continue to acquire new fans long after I am dead and gone.
