Stupid in a bright sort of way.
When three young, largely unknown, comedians took their show to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, they promptly won the Perrier Best Newcomer Award.
Barely six months later, they were starring in their very own series on BBC Radio 4.
Written and performed by Neil Edmond, Justin Edwards and James Rawlings, The Consultants mixes music with comedy, silly with sublime, and inventive with irreverent. The hottest sketch team around, this multi-talented threesome look set to follow the same hit trajectory as those other Perrier Award winners, the League of Gentlemen.
So, if you've ever wondered how to cope with being cast adrift on a self-assembly raft (with missing parts) or wondered about the problems of discovering a 'new-found land', join the new masters of pun and parody for some extremely inventive answers.
