| Dick and Dom's Funny Business | comment |
One series, 2011. Sitcom-cum-variety show, set backstage at a theatre; Dick & Dom play Dick and Dom, who run a comedy gig called Dick and Dom's Funny Business; all the scenes are set either in the green room, the theatre office, or on the stage (the Studio Audience play the theatre audience.) Other recurring characters are Kelly-Anne, the theatre owner's daughter, who has a crush on Dom; the usherettes; and two terrible would-be wrestlers who carry out a long-distance feud with Dick & Dom via video messages.The acts who appear in the show-within-the-show are actual up-and-coming sketch troupes like Pappy's and the Penny Dreadfuls.Every episode features a foolish scheme on the part of either Dick or Dom, and a special guest who must absolutely not hear of the shenanigans... Hilarity Ensues. Many, many homages and ShoutOuts to famous comedy routines and tropes- some of them contained in a “History of funny business” segment, which follows the Monty Python stage show “lecture on the history of custard pies” format, with “Subject A” (Dick) and “Subject B” (Dom) demonstrating slapstick routines while a voiceover explains the gag. | |

Candid Camera Prank | |
| Dick and Dom's Funny Business / int_1787e703 | comment |
Candid Camera Prank (Phone Scam version): One of their guests is an impressionist, and phones them up in character as Davina Mc Call to catch them out in one of their schemes. | |

Chekhov's Gun | |
| Dick and Dom's Funny Business / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: It's fairly obvious when a bunch of mousetraps are introduced that someone will end up snapped... | |

Attractive Bent-Gender | |
| Dick and Dom's Funny Business / int_4435aa66 | comment |
Attractive Bent-Gender: Dick dresses as his twin sister, Dixie, in one episode; the special guest promptly falls in love with her. (Dick rather misses his sister at the end of the episode, so Dom dresses up as another sister to console him.) | |

Mistaken for Gay | |

Mistaken for Gay: Kelly-Anne, passing garbled messages between the boys when they're not speaking, manages to conclude that they are in love. | |

Amusing Injuries | |
| Dick and Dom's Funny Business / int_78c895c8 | comment |
Amusing Injuries: Mostly but not all in the History of Funny Business segment, caused by a Plank Gag, Banana Peel, Rake Take or The Pratfall. Kelly-Anne delivers the odd slap, too. | |
