- Synopsis:
Before Peep Show and That Mitchell and Webb Look, David Mitchell and Robert Webb were the stars of Bruiser - a fast moving sketch show that featured the cream of emerging young British comedy talent. The show also starred MArtin Freeman, soon to be in The Office and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and Matt Holness, future writer and star of Garth Marenghi's Darkplace with The Office's Ricky Gervais among the show's contributing writers. Upfront, eclectic and original, the sketches took a scattergun aim at modern life from the Alan Titchmarsh-obsessed TV producer with his psychotic fixation on "Love Golf" and "Hate Golf" to the Motorhead T-shirt-wearing, foul-mouthed lynchpin of the IT department. Elsewhere we find a secret agent being presented with some crap weapons, a Shy Pimp, Rubbish Goths, the Outdoor Wee Man, the "Pussy-on-a-Stuck" Aussie, Sarcastic Plumber, an intense murder-weapon shopper and many more. - Actors:
