About this show

Five penniless young adults have come up against some unanswerable questions. What happens when being a bloke actually takes effort? When the only porn mag you've got is 'Fat Chicks' from 1986? Or when you're jealous of your friend because she had a boyfriend once? Janet, Jonny, Gaz, Donna and Louise play the game of life in this brilliantly observed, highly engaging comedy for the Playstation generation.
