Oh man, I so loved that show. I used to watch it after Monty Python. My absolute favorite bit is the one where Vyv stomps the hamster flat and crams it into the toaster. Oh, the memories.

Vyv-  
“This is a friend of mine called Mike, this is a friend of mine called neil, and this is a complete bastard named Rick.”

I knew _something_ happened to that hampster, but I just couldn’t remember what.

Now I remember the one where the rats are hanging out in front of their hole in the wall chit-chatting, then quick cut to one of the guys taking a guitar (?) and smashing them. Then they cut back to the rats and the survivor is eating the dead one and he says, “It’s what he would have wanted.” Audience groans.😃
