    I like me a bit of the old Black Comedy, so this looks interesting, starting 9PM Saturday 9PM on BBC2:
    An obnoxious group of friends struggle to survive the stag weekend from hell as a deer-hunting expedition quickly turns messy. Timid teacher Ian Telford joins the stag weekend of his brother-in-law Johnners and several of his obnoxious friends, as they embark on a deer-stalking adventure in the remote Scottish Highlands, organised by best man Ledge. But it's not long before the hunters become the prey, and their friendship is tested to the limit in a ruthless battle for survival.



    From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.

    Pity they have put this opposite Trapped on BBC Four and can see this spitting the vote

    Very poor opening episode, don't think I'll bother with next one.

    Average enough after hearing glowing things..

    .. plus a shame to see both the excellent
    Reece Shearsmith
    and
    Tim Key
    to go first.

    Will probably watch another though!

    I just watched the first episode, but I'm not going to bother going further. The characters and setups are just predictable, and the timing just doesn't work for me.
