'Orrible

2001 British TV series or programme From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

'Orrible is a British television sitcom produced by the BBC. Broadcast in 2001, it was written by and starred Johnny Vaughan.[2] Vaughan stars as a cheeky chappy taxi-cab driver and wannabe small-time criminal in Acton (west London).[3] Despite the BBC being confident and heavily promoting the series, it was panned by critics for the script and Vaughan's acting ability.[4][5] It achieved very low viewing figures and ran for one series, and has never been repeated by the BBC.[6] "Ultimately, it was shit" said Vaughan in a 2004 interview in The Stage.[7] James Buckley made his acting debut playing Sean's son (and Paul's godson) in the sixth episode, Two Men and a Bastard[8]
