A night that was a lot of fun, with performers who work really well together. Great future potential

There's something really good within this sketch show, it just needs prising out by an external director or a critical eye.

The framing device of a zombie apocalypse is a nice idea, but meant that some of the sketches feel forced given their subject matter or location. Losing it, it finding another way to have the sketches link up would be a bonus.
The king sketch, who wants to be a millionaire and most of all the camera sketches were all excellent. Really well worked, and I have no idea how the camera sketch has never been done before. So brilliant.

Subtle yet outrageous.
Hilariously funny - hard not to laugh out loud on many many occasions……the King defecation scene was sniggering sniggersome. A must see for every fringer
