Johnny Vegas played the role of Moz, a drug dealer, in the BBC sitcom Ideal. This beloved cult classic is finally making its way to iPlayer, after a 13-year hiatus since its finale aired on BBC Three. The show, written and created by Graham Duff, follows the hilarious and chaotic misadventures of Moz and his unusual customers as they search for marijuana in his flat.
Ideal ran for seven seasons, from 2005 to 2011, before being cancelled by the BBC to make room for new programs. Creator Graham Duff revealed that the reason for the cancellation was the new channel controller's desire to make a fresh start. But even though fans had to resort to buying DVDs or renting episodes on Amazon and YouTube, both Graham and Johnny Vegas, who plays the lead role, never gave up on their creation.
Fortunately, Ideal is now making a comeback on the BBC, with all seven seasons set to be available on iPlayer for viewers to relive and fall in love with all over again. Graham announced the news on Facebook, expressing his happiness and gratitude for the opportunity to bring the show back. He also hinted at more exciting news to come.
The show is remembered for its eccentric and quirky characters, such as the creepy Cartoon Head and cameos from celebrities like rock icon Paul Weller. Fans were quick to celebrate the news, with many expressing their love for the show and its brilliant script writing and unique characters.
Earlier this year, Johnny Vegas also hinted at a potential return of Ideal in some form. In a photo with creator Graham Duff, he mentioned that they were working on bringing the gang back together. He also expressed his gratitude for the love and support from dedicated fans.
Could the show's return to iPlayer be a hint at a reunion for Moz, Brian, and the rest of the gang? Johnny has teased that there's more Ideal to come, whether it's through streaming platforms or a live performance. Fans can't wait to see what's in store for their beloved show.
