文艺片常发生闷死人事故，因而拍摄文艺片被视为非法活动。一日，警方接到线报称某小区内有非法文艺片剧组正在筹备新片，一场惊心动魄的抓捕行动即将展开......

1969年10月5日，当这五个英国佬和一个美国佬第一次胡言乱语恬不知耻地出现在BBC电视台上时，整个英伦三岛都傻了眼。从这天开始，在之后短短的四年间，“巨蟒剧团”及其六位成员的名字通过《飞翔的马戏团》这套空前成功的电视喜剧节目，很快成为了英国现代文化的一个标志。也正是从《飞向的马戏团》开始，“巨蟒”逐渐为世界所熟知，并以自己独特的幽默方式开创了一种至今仍被全世界(尤其是好莱坞)广泛效仿和套用的喜剧类型。
《飞翔的马戏团》从形式上看类似于今天的电视小品，但它绝不受任何一种规范或模式的约束，我们从头至尾也看不到一个惯用的伎俩或模式化的重复。6个高智商活宝的创作灵感永远天马行空随兴所至，每一集的内容或破碎或连贯，可能是几个独立的故事，可能是几条相互交叉的线索，也可能是一堆毫无瓜葛的碎片。只要是他们灵机一动想到的东西，全都大胆地用摄影机拍摄了下来。除了极个别偶尔客串的朋友(在迫不得已的情况下他们必须需要的“性感美女”角色，都是由“真正的”女演员卡萝尔-克力夫兰扮演的)，整套剧中几乎所有有台词的角色都是活宝们亲自上阵，你所能像想到的各式奇装异服的打扮几乎全被他们尝试过了。
《飞翔的马戏团》嘲弄取笑，有时甚至是恶意羞辱的对象包括历史人物、哲学理论、政治立场、宗教教义、社会现象、公众意识等等。从维多利亚女王到普通的英国家庭妇女，从电视媒体制造的泡沫到日常生活中实实在在的细枝末节都是他们信手拈来的素材。而“巨蟒”对暴力或性等争议话题的处理也非常巧妙，既不会显得遮遮掩掩，也让审查机构无可奈何，这其中当然少不了泰里-基廉巧思妙想穿插剧中的卡通制作的功劳。
事实上，初看《飞翔的马戏团》或任何一部“巨蟒制造”的观众很可能会感到难以适应。乡土气极重的杜撰英国口音和有时显得十分白痴的行为和聒噪的对白会让人不知所云，而且节目中很大一部分内容也的确是纯属白痴的胡闹和小丑式的插科打诨。而这节目妙就妙在，这些貌似毫无价值的胡话连篇中经常会迸发出让人惊叹的绝妙创意，从极粗俗的角度彻底揭露人类文明中所有道貌岸然的嘴脸。大概所谓“大智若愚”的最高境界就在于此了。

The British ambassador to Tazbekistan is tasked with securing a £2 billion helicopter contract for the UK. Things begin badly when Davis accidentally shoots an Ibex, the national animal, while on a hunting trip with the president - and are further jeopardized when an arrogant young British human rights activist is arrested by the regime on trumped-up charges. This throws Davis into direct conflict with Neil, who believes Britain should be prioritising human rights over winning arms contracts. Neil, though, has ethical troubles of his own when the Tazbek secret police blackmail him into spying on the British for them.
The embassy is hosting a 'Best of British Festival' which offers an opportunity for Davis to impress the Tazbeks and persuade them to go with the British helicopters. However, the best the festival can offer is a medieval folk group from Gloucestershire, a demonstration of how to make a pork pie and a one-man production of Frankenstein. Nobody, least of all Davis, is feeling too confident...Then news reaches them that the human rights activist is facing the death penalty and the ambassador and his team are forced to make a tough decision.

When Peep Show arrived on our screens back in 2003, we were treated to a unique and original comedy by its partakers David Mitchell and Robert Webb. Now, two series later, Peep Show has become somewhat of a cult hit. Well, here’s an opportunity to see where it all began back with series one--possibly the best of the lot.
Mitchell and Webb have been performing together for some time and it really shows; their comedic timing and on-screen relationship allowing you to feel for Mark (Mitchell) and Jeremy (Webb) as they plunders through their lives, trying to find love, and sex.
But the real joy of the first series is in watching how their idea--to follow the story through the eyes of the two main protagonists, Mark and Jeremy--comes to fruition on screen. It’s a marvellous concept that works so well, being both unique and riotously funny at the same time.
It’s helped by a strong supporting cast--notably Olivia Colman (starring as Mark’s lusted after colleague Sophie) who has since gone on to star in series such as the equally successful Green Wing.
Peep Show is unique, different and, most importantly of all, a hoot. And with a bunch of decent extras on the disc, this is well worth picking up.--Mark Oakley
