The show follows a group of Paramedics the leader Stuart played by Rhys Thomas, he’s seen it all before working for the Ambulance service for some time. Then you have Rachid played by Kayvan Novak, a great dead pan comedy actor who didn’t disappoint during the first episode, then you move onto Ashley played by Richard Madden the other old timer in the service who plays the bounce off role with main character Stuart.
Last nights episode was called Up, Horny Down, a little strange I know but it refers to the feeling that the Ambulance technicians will get after they have attended a traumatic incident. That is of course what they do at the start of this episode when they attend a car accident and Stuart is forced to perform open heart surgery on the occupant of the vehicle.
Following that he finds himself in a bit of trouble with his boss as he is not supposed to perform that type of surgery on someone at the roadside, he along with his colleagues is sent to see the psychiatrist. All of them apart from Rachid make a mockery of the feelings they will get and go on to have a normal day, well for them anyway.
The laughs really start to come when the Horny feeling kicks in and the Knob and ass jokes are in free fall, yeah they are pretty stupid gags but you can’t help but laugh when you hear it (maybe I'm just childish). The funniest moment for me had to be when Rachid was getting his horny feeling, he manages to cover his modesty with a colander and has invited a young lady around for an afternoon of entertainment, I have scored the net to get a picture but unfortunatly was unable to find one.
The show showed some real promise during the first episode and I will be watching it every week from now in order to provide the review on Tuesdays. If you want to check out the blog the show is based on the you can go here Random Acts Of Reality.
