The first, Star Stories, won a British Comedy Award in 2006 and was twice BAFTA nominated; this was followed by cult hit Pete Versus Life starring Rafe Spall; finally by The Windsors starring Harry Enfield, the third series of which aired earlier in 2020 and which was also BAFTA nominated. The pair also contributed to countless well-known sketch and entertainment shows over two decades, from Armstrong & Miller to Smack The Pony, Big Train to The Kumars at No. 42, from Ruddy Hell!
