Oh man I just did a marathon watching fest of this show and it awesome and hilarious. Simon Pegg is the star and he plays a pizza delivery man that unfairly gets locked up in an asylum with inmates that were once sane but were tricked into going utterly insane, when they volunteered to come. Stand out performances have to be Jessica Stevenon (Spaced) as Martha/Nurse McFadden and Julian Barratt (The Mighty Boosh) as the the insane, dark brooding Victor Munro who before coming to the asylum was a painter/decorator but was driven made by being locked in room only filled with Renaissance art. The style of the show is mostly in monologues which are very funny and really makes the characters insanity really come out to you and really feel bad for them but at the same time laugh at them especially with Adam Bloom's never-ending comedy act and Martha's schizophrenic insanity of getting messages on daytime tv and being abducted by aliens. Really amazing tv show.
