Britain has a long history of distinguished comedy duos, and there was something in the air down in the Cella tonight to suggest these guys could, with the right material, be next in line.

This show had the essence of everything required for a good sketch show. It had original and funny scenarios - stand outs included Justin Timberlake presenting BBC learning programmes and Adolf Hitler being exposed by Columbo.

The pair were good comedic actors, well-equipped to transform into the numerous characters, one even sporting an Eric Morecambe style glasses twitch.

But, despite all this, it seemed to lack the indefinable factor that makes a good sketch show into a side-splittingly brilliant sketch show.

It was certainly enjoyable, though, and definitely has potential.
