Men Behaving Badly: 1997 Comic Relief sketch

Men Behaving Badly was a huge phenomenon in the 1990s and featured lots of famous faces during its six series. Viewers followed the lives of Gary Strang (Martin Clunes) and his flatmates Dermot Povey (Harry Enfield), and Tony Smart (Neil Morrissey). The show followed the trio as they navigated the ups and downs of South London life focusing on their work and relationships.

The men were often caught in sticky situations thanks to their childish ways - while falling in and out of love with Dorothy Martin (Caroline Quentin) and Deborah Burton (Leslie Ash). ITV launched the show but scrapped it after poor viewing figures.

In 1994 the BBC took it over with its popularity soaring. There were 42 episodes between 1992 and 1998 including a Christmas special - on its final episode it raked in 13.9 million viewers.

Three decades later the famous stars were thrown into stardom and landed leading roles. But where are they now?
