2. Best of Series 1

Specially selected highlights from the sketch show set in a fictional Scottish town that's strangely familiar. Including Paul and Walter - the snippy siblings who run an ice-cream van; the Burnistoun MP who cares passionately about the Dekebone roundabout and the incredible sequence of events set about by the flinging of a two-litre bottle of ginger. Plus, if you shout loud enough, can you make a voice-activated lift go up to floor eleven.

Burnistoun's Big Night

3. Burnistoun's Big Night

One-off special revisiting Burnistoun. This episode mixed up the show's favourite characters with some new creations. Following characters from the first drink of the night to the last dip of pakora in the wee small hours, some of Burnistoun's best-loved characters are back including Jolly Boy John, Quality Polis McGregor and Toshan, best mates Scott and Peter plus the "Up the Road" guys. Meanwhile the selection of new sketches includes beardie hipsters Niko and Kiko, cocktail-sipping 'Exclusive Girls' and extended repercussions as a treatment for erectile dysfunction works a wee bit too well. There's a glimpse of Burnistoun's hoi polloi in high-class toilets and chippies, questionable boxing advice courtesy of the Bryce brothers and birthday party guests driving their mate, Barry, mad. Plus the Radio Burnistoun DJs keep things moving as "the best wee city on God's Green Earth" lets its hair down on a Saturday night.
