The main concept of this show, for all that have not seen it is a ginger haired man called avid Merrion, played by Leigh Francis. He is a so called celebrity stalker and stalks celebrity in a funny and sometimes weird way.
None of the celebrities that appear in the show however are actually real, instead they are all avid Merrion in a mask, that usually doesn’t even look remotely like the celebrity its meant to be. It this second series there are a few new faces to be seen as the likes of Ricky Gervais and Christina Aguilera. don’t worry though there are still the old favourites from series one including Mel B, the Osbournes, Michael Jackson and of course everyone’s favourite Craig David.
There is also a bear that lives in a tree house, this is also avid and is just his head poking put of a chair of sofa and his body is hidden behind this to make him look like a tiny teddy bear. The main concept of the bear is that its meant to be a cute innocent bear who interviews celebrities, and mostly real celebrities this time. However the bear is not as innocent as is seems as you will see if you watch the show.
The main reason why this shows taken off is simply because its so crazy, the main concept of a man who puts rubber masks on and says crazy catch phrases just sounds ridiculous but when watching it sometimes you cant help but laugh. There are some scenes in there that just fail to amuse you and the scenes that are unfunny really bring the whole show down, apart from them however most of the scenes are really funny and I would give this a try if you’ve never seen it before.
This second series has 2 disks to it, the first containing all 8, 30 minute long episodes of series 2. The second disk contains deleted scenes, some of which are really funny, extended scenes, bo sexier, avid’s gallery, boop Selecta trailers and a special behind the scenes featurette.
This series seems to be packed full of lots and lots of great clips to watch and is fantastic value for money, the run time of disk one is 191 minutes and the run time of disk 2 is 111 minutes so you really do get a lot of viewing for your money.
There will be a lot of people that will really hate this, but they’ll be a lot of people that will love it too, really you wont know unless you give it a watch and give it a fair chance.

Interesting to see Craig David complain about how he was reduced to a laughing stock. Well, if he wasn't sh*te in the first place he wouldn't have to worry!
