Horse and Louis: Top Trumpin'! - Free

115270 original

Musical duo Horse and Louis produce a soothing brand of radio-friendly comedy that you can imagine dissipating a tense teatime atmosphere at your parents' house. Their gently amusing guitar ditties play nicely on prosaic realities. With the occasional knob gag dropping rather jarringly into the mix, the pair mostly play it pre-watershed safe. A particular crowd-pleaser is a customer hotline parody that earned them Radio 2 airtime. Bouncing off one another with psychic timing, Horse and Louis create an easy intimacy. Still, the ill-judged audience participation element in a round of Top Trumps feels as awkward as forced family time.
