WHAT'S IT ABOUT? A depraved 17th century poet drinking and banging his way to a pleasurable (?) death. Git.

ANY GOOD? Dark, sleazy and witty with a brilliant cast. That'll do us, ladies and gents.

QUOTE FOR THE POSTER: 'It's Leaving Las Vegas meets The Doors for Restoration England!'

REASON TO WATCH: 'Cos it's got character names like 'Allcock' and 'Dr Bendo'. Almost as good as Seamen Stains and Master Bates!
