- The Imaginatively Titled Punt & Dennis Show
"The Imaginatively Titled Punt & Dennis Show" (
1994 -1995 ) was a stand-up and sketch show bycomedian sSteve Punt andHugh Dennis . They were adouble act in "The Mary Whitehouse Experience ", and they also featured in "Canned Carrott ", so they had plenty of experience working together.Impressionist sAlistair McGowan andRonni Ancona were among the regular guests on the show. It only ran for two series, the second of which was more simply titled "Punt and Dennis".It never quite reached the popularity of its predecessors, likely due to the pre-watershed timing of the show.
There were several character inventions in the sketches, such as "The Gullibles", who were always falling for scams. There were also spoofs from TV programs such as "
Baywatch " and "The X-Files ".The second series also featured performances by
tribute bands , who impersonated groups likeThe Beatles andThe Rolling Stones .
