Synopsis
Four students - sanctimonious Rick (Rik Mayall), boisterous punk Vyvyan (Ade Edmondson), hippie Neil (Nigel Planer) and mysterious mature student Mike (Christopher Ryan) - all live together in a squalid apartment. Incompetent, lazy and disdainful of one another, their lives are regularly impeded by entertainingly bizarre mishaps.
