TV Pick – ‘Kevin & Perry Go Large’ Is The Tuesday Pick-Me-Up You Need

James Fenton

Aaaaaand relax.

That’s Tuesday done meaning we’re almost halfway through the week and if you look a little further over the hill you’ll see a Bank Holiday weekend on the horizon.

That’s still a bit far away but some high-brow movie entertainment should tide us for another night. Best steer clear of Comedy Central then because the station will be showing the gross-out classic that is Kevin & Perry Go Large.

The movie that stemmed for BBC’s much-loved sketch show Harry Enfield And Chums features the hapless titular pair heading to Ibiza to follow their dream of becoming famous DJs and, well, get the ride.

The movie was released in 2000 and its soundtrack is filled with nostalgic classics from the likes of Underworld, Fatboy Slim, Fragma and Mauro Picotto.

All in all, a fairly brainless romp with some great tunes and a decent amount of gags. Catch Kevin & Perry Go Large tonight on Comedy Central at 9pm.
