Review of War

The Comic Strip Presents: War (1983)
Season 1, Episode 2
8/10
A bit dated, but every Young Ones fan should see it.
26 September 2010
This is one of the most important episodes for any self-respecting Young Ones fan to see. It hasn't exactly aged like a fine wine, but it still has much to recommend it.

Danny Peacock and Dawn French portray the central couple whilst Rik, Ade, Nigel, Peter, Jen & Robbie play a few characters each. Rik Mayall's General Irwin is a classically random character. There's a hilarious Russian Roulette scene with Edmondson, Planer, Saunders and Coltrane. Robbie also portrays a Japanese businessman, which is a sight to behold. When Rik spits in his face, I laughed so hard a bit of wee came out... of my nose.

Warning! Blind people should not be allowed to handle machine guns and grenades!
