TV review: Walliams and Friend

9:30 pm. Friday BBC!

David Wallims will always be know for his partnership with Matt Lucas, their most famous creation being Little Britain. For his new programme Walliams has decided to have a different partner each week for his new programme, hence the friend in the title. The first to take on this title was Jack Whitehall. Like Little Britain it takes a look at the many strands of British society plus there is also a rather risque take on Sherlock. the show is bit of a hit and miss affair. The 2 best sketches bookend the show The first being a mickey take on dating shows like Take Me Out with Walliams as the host and Whitehall as the constant who after giving a series of very tame answers goes for full blown smut. The another will be of particular delight to those who abhor Jeremy Kyle, Waillims plays the contesrvial host while Whitehall plays an upper middle class son who complains to his parents after they go on a skiing holiday, this leads to an number of revelations.  Overall it could have been worse yet it could have better, plus you are left wondering what it would be like with Lucas appearing.
