Synopsis:

Comedy legends Vic Reeves & Bob Mortimer proudly present their first sitcom, House of Fools. Starring alongside them in this colourful and crazy series is Matt Berry (The IT Crowd, Toast of London), Morgana Robinson (The Morgana Show), Dan Skinner (Yonderland, The Wrong Mans) and rising star Daniel Simonsen. The show is set in Bob's flat which he reluctantly shares with his Norwegian son Erik (Simonsen), Vic and his wayward brother Bosh (Skinner).

Packed with special effects and visual treats from start to finish, this series is unmissable.
