Andy Hamilton and Jay Tarses script for Revolting People, about the American War of Independence, winningly mixes the boom boom school of jokes, literary silliness (jeopardy means like a jeopard) and anachronisms which make deft political points. Hamilton and Tarses, who has written for the Muppets and the Bob Newhart Show, appear alongside Jan Ravens (Deadringers) and James Fleet in an unmissable series with appearences from Hugh Dennis and Michael Fenton Stevens (TWOS).
