Product Description

Video Description
15 Storeys High is about two very different blokes who find themselves sharing a flat in a tower block on a south London council estate. The flat’s owner, Vince (Sean Lock) takes in a new lodger – Errol (Benedict Wong) and it is not long before he realizes he has made a dreadful mistake. Errol’s only crime, however, is that he’s a nice, considerate, thoroughly decent bloke. Vince, however, has spent too much time living on his own and is completely intolerant of anybody else! Errol is a real sweetheart and is very excited about his move to London and has a list of things that he wants to do there: Number 36 – drink a cappuccino, Number 37 – work with fish. Errol would do anything for anyone – but sadly, in a place like London, he is bound to be taken advantage of. 15 Storeys High also introduces us to some of the other tower block occupants – wife swappers, bible bashers, lap dancers, men who shout at the television and even a bloke who keeps a horse in his spare room. It has been described as "the antidote to Friends".

Contains all six episodes from the first series:

  • The Sofa
  • Pool Kids
  • Blue Rat
  • The Model
  • Ice Queen
  • Dead Swan


Synopsis
The first six episodes from the television comedy series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Original, unusual, inspired., 22 Jan 2005
This has been described as the 'antidote to Friends' and that's about as much as you can say to give anyone an idea of what to expect from this extraordinary comedy. To try to describe the style of humour or to summarise the characters or the plots will just give the impression that this is like anything that's ever gone before.
If you don't like it you have something wrong with you. Buy it, watch it, spread the word.
The second series is yet to be released on DVD, and I've heard that the BBC have rejected a third series. If this is the case, their choice of keeping this superb programme from the public will have denied the enlightened few something truly special.

You will not find a review of 15 storeys that doesn't sing its praises. That's because it's one of the funniest comedy shows ever written. Simple as that.

By Chosroes "sassy" (chingford,london,uk) - See all my reviews
Probably an aquired taste but for deadpan comedy it doesnt get
any better.
Played completely straight and filmed in some of the drabbest
places imaginable this is really funny.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superbly Written and Dry, 11 Sep 2006
By AJ Murray (wick, caithness Scotland) - See all my reviews
I came across this when it was first aired on BBC2, at an extremely unsocial hour. It was never advertised and this was a shame, because if it had received more coverage i'm sure more people would've watched - and demanded more. This doesn't appear to have hurt it in any appreciable way, as word of mouth has spread, and everyone i know who has watched it, has agreed that it is a superb series. Its dry humour and wit is what makes it stand out from the mainstream, and its an excellent series overall. I recommend this to everyone who appreciates well written (and extrememly funny) comedy. I can only hope that the 2nd series is released on DVD soon.
