lead balloon is a great show, you have to read between the lines to find the humour(which I would say is every minute), its the kind of comedy you have to think about to get whats funny, because its not in your face stupid comedy which makes simple people laugh, its put together very cleverly, everyone involved have done a great job. I can't wait for series two to come out on dvd, which is every bit as good as the first.If you have got a good sense of humour then you will like this.

I completely agree with Quinton, if your simple in the mind don't watch this dvd... its not in your face but instead its very well written and 'cleverly' put together so to speak. You have to read between the lines to understand the humour but without thinking to hard. I personally; being a very, very highly intelligent girl would recommend this to people of similar personality/intelligence.

  REVIEW OF LEAD BALLOON DVD
Review created: 10/01/09

We bought this as a present for our son in law who lives in Spain. He loves British comedy as he can't get British TV over there. Lead Balloon is a wonderful sitcom about a writer and presenter Rik Spleen (played by Jack Dee) who is one of life's losers but in a very pleasant way. Jack Dee's portrayal in his normal deadpan style is a brilliant example of someone who has to do the minimum of what is right because he is forced into it, rather than because he wants to do it. On the other hand he likes to take the maximum amount of praise whether it was his own idea or act for anything good. His daughter and her boyfriend somehow manage to exploit him to the utmost, despite his meanness. This will have you in stitches. I particularly liked his East European au pair who takes every sentence literally and has a fondness but practical view of her home country.

Great biting comedy. If you like to cringe in The Office or Extras this is for you. A bit similar to Love Soup, but with a different twist.
