Vic Reeves' Big Night Out was popular enough in the early 90's to get 2 seasons out of Channel 4. It was The Tonight Show DNA mixed with Pee wee's Playhouse DNA all with a frustrated rock star undercurrent.
Reeves and Mortimer, the team who did the Randall and Hopkirk(deceased)remake series presented on BBC America last year, originally did Big Night Out as a stage show.
Vic, whose real name is Jim Moir, was actually friends with Morrissey at the time and sang on his cover of the Jam's That's Entertainment.
