Television review: Mike Bubbins’s creation is a giggle-fest that pokes fun at the decade that political correctness forgot

If television has taught us anything, it is the 1970s were the funniest decade of all time. It was the era of mandatory creaking leather jackets, fluffy dice the size of your clenched fist, and workplace sexism – all soundtracked by disco, funk, and David Bowie. Who could resist?

Revived in the present day, Mammoth heads straight to his local boozer. He is shocked to learn his old drinking buddies are now in their 80s and no longer up for all-day benders .The rationale for moving from Dublin to commuter counties has never been stronger The twist is that she turns out to have been the daughter he never knew who had – the result of one final canoodle in a ski chalet before that avalanche that swallowed him whole all those decades previously.
