Product Description
Off-the-wall sketches, new characters and the return of a few old favourites as Robert Webb and David Mitchell return for another series of the BAFTA-award winning comedy.
This third series includes the accident prone adventures of Hennimore; a TV quiz show from after the end of civilisation; the real purpose of the Giant Death Ray; Russ Claus, Santa's troubled brother; an inventor too far ahead of his time; and the secret space cult of Vectron. You’ll find the return of drunken super-sleuth Sir Digby Chicken Caesar; more from the Lazy Writers; and a plethora of sketches on subjects as varied as murder mystery; an argument between Queen Victoria and her prime-minister about a rather rude tree; and why firing a dog out of cannon is so much better than a doorbell.

Another great entry to the M&W oeuvre, with all the typical attributes: imaginative, self-deprecating sketches, unique editing, fast-moving ideas.
But the main, and essential, ingredient of success is their acting. M&W bring their winning, and sometimes frustrating, personalities to every scene. If you like them, or love them as I do, you will enjoy pretty much everything they do.
It is delightfully refreshing to see such clever iconoclasm, delivered with wit and verve.

That Mitchell and Webb Look Series 3 - Witty and erudite university humour
17 Nov 2011
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Mitchell and Webb have to be one of my favourite comedy partnerships of recent years. While poking fun at the seemingly mundane in life, the extraordinary things we all seem able to accept and occasionally going off on flights of hilarious fantasy, they're never afraid to give the inner geek free reign.
Also starring Olivia Coleman and James Bachman in a bewildering array of characters, this is a well written sketch show, and while there is the odd dud most of the sketches hit rather than miss, and the short quickfire nature means there are plenty of laughs in each episode.
All six episodes are collected here onto 1 DVD. Series 3 of the Mitchell and Webb sound repeats a large proportion of the sketches, but there is enough material unique to radio or TV to make it worth owning both.
5 Stars.

Good, But Nothing New
I'm a big fan of Mitchell and Webb, they''re very funny without being overly rude, and they're not really rebellious like Kevin Bishop, or any of the other sketch shows on TV, so... Read more
