When I first saw this, for a split second I thought it was real. They were so convincing. Growing up in London, I knew plenty of guys like these. So, that's why I thought it was real. Once the penny dropped, I couldn't stop laughing. Absolutely brilliant program 👌

[@NBAbrokeboii]

Same here. They do seem so genuine with their characters that you'd think that this couldn't be made up. But it is inspired and built from real life people like that Tower Block Dreams documentary.

[@illumindonnaughty]

They got the idea from a real documentary called Tower Block Dreams and copied it.

[@NBAbrokeboii]

@@illumindonnaughty It's more of a parody than a copy. Plus Tower Block Dreams was real and wasn't a written show and the People Just Do Nothing cast didn't know how big it would become since they just started off by messing around with it on KZbin.
