Series 1
Featuring the lunatic exploits of four students of Scumbag College: Vyv, the punk; socially aware and politically conscious Rik; Neil, the hippy; and Mike, the well-dressed smoothie. They share a dilapidated house in North London owned by their dodgy landlord Jerzy Balowski. They are the least compatible housemates it is possible to imagine and, when they are not tearing pieces out of each other, they manage to get involved in the most bizarre of comic escapades.

Series 2
Vyvyan is a medical student with spiky red hair and four metal stars across his forehead. The regular target of his rage is Rik, an arrogant little poseur who sees himself as a real anarchist, but is in fact a coward. The only common ground that Rick and Vyv share is their mutual loathing of Neil, a refugee from the hippy era whose flower power is definitely wilting. Of course, in amongst this bunch of misfits Mike sees himself as the house cool guy.
