The Young Ones/The Housemartins

I seem to recall that The Young Ones had musical guests on the show every week and I remember The Damned, Madness, Dexy's Midnight Runners and Motorhead but a friend of mine says The Housemartins were on it too. Anybody see that episode?

Brilliantly funny show BTW. Love that Rik Mayall!

I loved the Young Ones too. The episode "Bambi" is one of the most hilarious half hours I've ever sat through (and I believe Emma Thompson was in that episode). I don't remember the Housemartins ever having been on the show, though. Incidentally, the Y

Recall seeing Rip Rag and Panic and Nine Below Zero as well....but never the Housemartins, but I may have missed it.

The Housemartins have a best-of available in Canada that comes with a NTSC DVD of all their videos. The videos are kind of goofy, but I collect videos so it was a nice addition to my collection!

I own every episode on video. Used to watch them religiously and learned quite a few hyphenated insults from it. [:p] Love their hil-arious Bachelor Boys, Neil's Book of the Dead, and Vyvyan's How To Be A Complete Bastard books as well. Ne
