“No other show has packed so many belly laughs into such a short space of time” ~AroVideo

Aroview: Season 1 is a brilliant absurd satire of educational programmes, particularly of the faceless kind played to British schoolchildren in the 1970's, with each episode covering a different topic, among them Calcium, Germs, Maths and Music. Very silly.

Season 2 lampoons well known pop-science series such as TOMORROWS WORLD and BEYOND 2000 with an earnest band of hip presenters including a young OLIVIA COLMAN. Nonsense inventions from around Britain go in the draw to win The Invention of the Year award presented by none other than His Royal Highness Sir Prince Charles.

Supporting cast is a stellar who's who of early 2000's Brit comedy.
