    As an American who watches the show, I once again… have no idea who these people are.

      I’m English (living in the USA for 8 years) and I only know Pemberton. I’m sure I’ll love them all by the end. :-)

      Suffice to say, then, that Steve Pemberton has more comedy writing skill in his left arse-cheek than the entirety of Hollywood put together
