Tony Smart
Men Behaving Badly is a British sitcom that was created and written by Simon Nye. It follows the lives of Gary Strang (Martin Clunes) and his flatmates Dermot Povey (Harry Enfield; series 1 only) and Tony Smart (Neil Morrissey; series 2 onwards). It was first broadcast on ITV in 1992, before moving to BBC One in 1994. From 1992 to 1998 there were six series, a Christmas special and a trilogy of episodes that make up the feature-length finale "Last Orders".
The series was filmed in and around Ealing in West London. The setting, however, is implied to be South London, and many references are made to Surrey. It was produced by Hartswood Films in association with Thames for the first two series on ITV. They also assisted with production of the third series onwards that aired on the BBC, after Thames had lost their regional ITV franchise for London at the end of 1992 to Carlton Television.
Men Behaving Badly became highly successful after being moved to a post-watershed slot on BBC One. It won the Comedy Awards' best ITV comedy and the first National Television Award for Situation Comedy.
