Alexander Armstrong and Ben Miller are back with their crack team of comedy writers and performers. A whole host of favourite characters return including Frank Dad, the Striding Man and the street-talking Second World War Pilots plus a raft of brand spanking new creations. Among them are The White Devil, a selfimportant ex-pat in Africa - roaming the back roads, saving lives and fixing his hair in the wing mirror of his 4x4; Jilted Jim, dumped at the altar but still on his honeymoon, turning the lives of other newly weds into a living hell; Dennis Lincoln-Park, an accident-prone culture buff, searching for the most valuable art works in the history of civilization; and Terry Devlin, a flamboyant high society hanger-on who masquerades as a BBC News Royal Correspondent.

What do vampires, television chefs, artefacts of antiquity, Morten Harket, World War Two and threesomes have in common? Absolutely nothing... But never fear, the new series of BAFTA award-winning 'The Armstrong and Miller Show' will unify this bewildering array of ancient and modern concerns by the medium of sketch comedy. In this third outing, many of the classic characters are back and served up alongside a smorgasbord of new faces that include Pharius and Horschtadt, a pair of baroque vampires who are flummoxed by the modern world; The Outdoor Chefs, whose 'live off the land' philosophy is constantly thwarted by their cosy middle class leanings; 'Simpkins of the France', a pretentious ex-pat Brit who despite having only lived in Paris for six months, has forgotten how to speak basic English; and Phil and Ken the self-made men - two brash businessmen who speak 'no nonsense' nonsense.

The line-up of characters, includes Brabbins and Fyffe, the filthy alter-egos of Flanders and Swann; the Inappropriate Dentist, who regales his captive audience with tales of swinger parties and the state of his pet dog's prostate; Tony and Dimitri, a hapless football manager and his Russian oligarch boss; and wartime fighter pilots, talking in modern-day street lingo. Wince at the near-the-knuckle instructions of a politically incorrect sat nav, and marvel at the very existence of Pru and Miranda, two fat ladies with the difference that they can neither cook nor run Dandy Lion's, their brain-meltingly inefficient vegetarian restaurant in Hampstead. And that's just a taster - there are nearly 100 other characters in the series, all with a hint of Armstrong and Miller's exquisite nose for the absurd.
