Sheeps present a sketch show that attempts to be a political satire while being all round silliness.
They have great ideas and good performances, most notably the shy tory (Al meekly hiding behind a curtain purporting to be a tory voter) and a sketch of David Cameron persuading Ed Sheeran to become a member of the Conservative Party being especially funny. There are moments that seem to lag and the energy dies down, including a protracted bit towards the end where Sepp Blatter attempts to become prime minister, though Sheeps knowingly them mock the sketch itself by highlighting the issues with it.
Slightly oddly Sheeps attempt to end the show with a vinegar eating competition that just feels a bit off-kilter from the rest of the show.
Overall, though, a very decent hour.
