Plastic Cowboys - Mum's Gone Away

Three guys perform a well crafted series of funny sketches really getting into the characters they are portraying.

There is a good variety of topics covered, ranging from Christmas to World War 2. Sometimes the humour is in the punch line, and at other times it is in the action as the sketch develops. Oh, and also, there is a recurring full bum nudity sketch.

At the close of each sketch the simple set is plunged into darkness, and quirky, humorous, taped vignettes are played. For a finale the guys do an all singing, all dancing routine about the ‘New Boy at School’.

This is an entertaining and amusing late afternoon show.
