In 1988 a group of unknown comedians burst onto the TV scene with a show that revolutionised Australian television - The Comedy Company. Overnight it became the highest rating series of the year. The characters - Kylie Mole, Con the Fruiterer and Colin Carpenter became household names. The show became compulsory Sunday night viewing. Now, for the first time this DVD presents a collection of their greatest sketches in their original form: uncut and uncensored. There's Kylie, Con, Colin, The Language of Football, Uncle Arthur, Jophasine and many more. Also included are some scenes that have never been broadcast.

The Very Best of The Comedy Company Volume 1

Melbourne, 1886. Two gentlemen climb into a hansom cab late one murky night. One man climbs out, the other travels on to St Kilda. On arrival, the driver finds the second man dead; murdered. The ‘high-society’ killing sends shockwaves through the young city, still flush from its gold-rush boom.
