As Aventuras Inventadas de Dick Turpin

I could say a lot about this, but you need to watch it yourself.

It is fun, witty and just what you need, when you need to laugh and have fun. Dick and Jack Sparrow could have been brothers and I think that you could put the two together, in a new movie....would that be interesting?

The negative reviews are from people that have no basic sense of humor. I don't know how you could not find this series amusing.

The casting and acting is great and the writers do a good job as well.

Just sit back and enjoy it, I guarantee that you will walk away with a smile on your face and anticipating the next episode.

My mind is confused by some people thinking this is a reboot of the old Richard O'Sullivan series 40 odd years ago.

This is simply a daft-as-a-brush comedy based on the same historical figure, though very, very loosely.

Dick (fnaar) Turpin is simply the framework to hang this silly show on, and thus far its holding the weight very well.

Our Turpin is a foppish goth who likes knitting. He lucks his way into being the leader of a Motley highwayman gang and they proceed to get into daft scrapes.

It's a very funny and silly show, with no pretence of realism or historical accuracy. That's fine by me. I'm not a huge fan of Noel Fielding, especially when he goes surreal and weird, but here he simply uses his natural charm and mild eccentricity to great effect.

A real unexpected treat for lovers of daft comedy.

Im not going to go into people thinking this was a remake of the old movie or a documentary any one with half a sense knows immediately its comedy reimagining . I mean a kid carries a sign that says witches get stitches You have to listen to the cadence of the speech or you miss a lot of jokes but their are plenty of slapstick and broad humor. Now some people especially in America are not going to get the humor It reminds me of The Windsors and even has Ellie White who played Princess Beatrice in it. I also think a lot of americans dont get comedy that doesnt have a laugh track. I really liked this and if you have ever liked any British comedy show you will like this.

Quirky, light hearted fun. An excellent show for the whole family. If you don't "get it", you're not trying hard enough. Rather than fall into the trap of the same old comedic tropes, I found the humour quite irreverent, you never know what Noel will come up with next or in what direction each character is going to go. Great supporting cast and it's nice to see a show which clearly doesn't take itself too seriously whilst still providing the touchstones of today's society as a guide to the storyline. The scenery and costumes are lavish, the dialogue witty and not a moment is wasted in this romp. The jokes on you if you don't see the funny side.

Noel Fielding on Bake Off is a complete mystery to me. Un-funny and a silly add-on that adds nothing to the programme... which I really dislike in any case. However, in The Completely made-Up Adventures of Dick Turpin he's back to the character that made 50% of the Mighty Boosh very, very funny. It's Marmite... you either love it or hate it, but here are a lot of the Boosh gags and personalities, brought back to life in a great situation. Great costume opportunities, great characters, daft non-sequiturs and some truly excellent guest appearances. Hugh Bonneville is inspired casting... as is greg Davies in episode 2. I absolutely loved it. Can't wait for episode three. Even the opening credit sequence is superb... what gorgeous animation! And Bob Fossil makes an appearance too. If you like Our Flag Means Death you will probably like this. I heartily recommend it.
