The Hunt for the Yorkshire Grimace
59 min
Meet the two greatest straight men on the 70's Northern comedy scene; Gary 'Rubber-Johnny-Faced' Rhodes and Dougie 'Bit-Mongy-Round-the-Mouth' Rivers This light hearted comedy features racist jokes, rape jokes, cripple jokes, AIDS jokes, animal slaughter jokes, defecation jokes, wanking vicar jokes also some dead babies, back street abortions, wheel-chair stunts and reptilocide. But beneath the hilarity there is a tear in the clown's Jap's eye as Gary and Dougie begin to suspect that death dwells in the domain of dark dreams..or summat like that!
