Perrier Best Newcomers 2000 winners Kim Noble and Stuart Silver present their short-lived comedy series, shown on one of the 4's back in 2001.

Kim and Stu may have proved too much for Channel/E4, but I think it's straight up genius. Episode 5 is entirely in Polish (or some other east european language), for goodness sakes.

Video quality is not great, but it's watchable. Comedy quality is outstanding, if you like things a little more off the rails. The word 'surreal' is bandied around all too easily these days, but these guys are the genuine article. They clearly have a deep understanding and appreciation of the medium of television - and they're very, very funny.

Extra details on episode two:

Noble And Silver - One Take
===========================

An unusual 23 minute programme recorded in one take around Rathbone Place,
Soho Square and Tottenham Court Road in London. Confusing, hard to
describe, and (I'd imagine) a logistical nightmare to shoot.
