Rather distasteful and utterly unfunny Whoopi Goldberg drugs ‘n’ vice “comedy”, with little of interest on screen unless the sight of such luminaries as Cheech ‘The Golden Palace’ Marin and Fred ‘Joe ‘Mama’ Besser, you know, the fat, absconding drummer off of This is Spinal Tap’ Asparagus floats your cameo boat. Still, the soundtrack’s late-’80s heaven, with Harold Faltermeyer, Debbie Gibson, Miki ‘Love Under New Management’ Howard, the original ‘Didn’t I (Blow Your Mind This Time)’ by The System, and – yes! – ‘Casanova’ by Levert.

It’s the title of this programme, for a start.
