    Take the banal, the irrelevant and the downright silly, add a female perspective, pour in a hefty dose of comic timing, stir well, and what do you get? Two series of Smack the Pony, the highlights of which are found here. So many of the sketches are very short that watching this in one go might induce epilepsy, but regular doses, little and often, can only prove beneficial. The team of Sally Phillips, Doon MacKichan and Fiona Allen play on women's neuroses (snogging, pubic hair and size of boobs, not necessarily in that order), their preoccupations (finding a man, finding a man and finding a man), their weaknesses (Marks & Spencer, fashion and men) and their competitiveness (more covert than that of the male of the species, and therefore far more deadly). The spoof dating agency clips take in the full range of stereotypes and unfailingly hit the spot. And the prize for the most surreal sketch goes to the one which sets that most bourgeois of institutions--the wedding list--in a sex shop, with the coup de grace: "Two butt plugs ... with love from Kathy and Edward". Not a compilation to give your grannie for her birthday but to be enjoyed in the company of like-minded people (men included). On the DVD: The one failing here is that the DVD disappointingly adds nothing to the VHS format. Shame!--Harriet Smith

    What happens when an ex-cop decides to change careers and become a midwife? You'll soon find out when Matthew Bunting (Boyd) becomes the first male midwife in Eastgate Hospital Maternity Unit. He soon makes an impact on fellow midwifes and patients alike as cultural, social and moral clashes abound, none more so than with strict obstetrician Mr Edward (MacQueen). Dogged by his flatmate and soon to be fellow ex-cop Ian, in The Delivery Man, Matthew will be facing stubborn breach babies, stubborn fathers, stubborn whale music, stubborn TV reality stars - and that's just scraping the surface of his working day. Throw in a deeply desirable love interest (Bea) and you'll soon find yourself immersed in the comedy The Guardian called seriously funny.
