How The Young Ones Changed Comedy
This documentary explores the legacy of one of the most notorious British sitcoms of all time.

Never before had a flagship comedy show contained so much violence, depravity and anarchy - it was a shot across the bow to mainstream comedians that things would never be the same again.
