The Peter Serafinowicz Show
The fast-paced Rose d'Or winning and BAFTA Award-nominated comedy sketch series 'The Peter Serafinowicz Show,' starring Peter Serafinowicz (Spaced, Look Around You) is available to own on DVD from Monday 1st February, courtesy of 4DVD.
In Peter's world, uncanny impressions of stars such as John Lennon, Simon Cowell, Kevin Spacey, Ringo Starr, Marlon Brando and Robert De Niro are mixed with Peter's own creations including, Michael-6, the Robot Talk Show Host and Brian Butterfield, the world's most incompetent compensation lawyer.
Over six episodes, The Peter Serafinowicz Show immerses viewers in a world where Poirot and Miss Marple team up to solve murder mysteries, Al Pacino teaches a group of actors how to cry on screen with the help of his pet ant 'Limpy', Noel Edmonds unveils his scary new gameshow 'Dead or Un-Dead' and Darth Vader meets his ideal woman.
Peter is best known for his roles in 'Spaced' as Duane Benzie, a nemesis of Simon Pegg's character Tim Bisley and the critically acclaimed 'Look Around You', which Serafinowicz starred in and co-wrote.
Peter also starred alongside Simon Pegg in 'Shaun of the Dead' as his ultra-professional flatmate, Pete and with Vince Vaughan and Jon Favreau in the Hollywood blockbuster 'Couples Retreat'.
He made his broadcasting debut in 1993 on Radio 1 show 'The Knowledge', a spoof documentary about the music industry and has since appeared on a number of other shows including, 'Harry Hill's Fruit Corner', 'Weekending', and 'Grievous Bodily Radio' on Radio 4.
Peter has made a number of guest appearances on both television and radio panel shows including, 'Have I Got News for You', '8 Out of 10 Cats', 'QI', 'Would I Lie To You' and 'Never Mind the Buzzcocks' as well as being a regular guest on 'The 99p Challenge'.
This DVD features an hour of extra material including, the 2008 Christmas Special, deleted scenes, a behind-the-scenes documentary about the making of the show and commentary on episodes three and six.
Directed by Becky Martin (Peep Show), the first series of 'The Peter Serafinowicz Show' started in October 2007 as part of the newly launched 'Thursdays Are Funny' brand on BBC2.
For his performances in this series, Serafinowicz was awarded the Best Entertainer prize at the 2008 Rose d'Or ceremony. The series has also been nominated for Best Comedy Programme at the BAFTA Television Awards.
