Only 19 episodes...

Sometimes, it was inspired - sometimes, it was drivel.

If Mr Harvey had an editor who was able to reel in the script - this could have been a contemporary classic.

Still, it remains a guilty pleasure.

The(ir) Blurb...

A sitcom about two dreamy roommates in London. Gay unemployed actor Tom Farrell has a vague ambition to become the British Tom Cruise, but his career is going nowhere, and his love life isn't too hot either. Linda La Hughes is about as attractive as a centenary nun, yet has delusions of romantic love and actually aims at Tom, by far the most attractive man in her life, even if he is only into men. Yet as life keeps knocking them down, they are sort of condemned often to depend on each-other for want of better.
