Here is a show every bit as breathless as its title, stoked by bursts of high-energy 90s chart hits and delivered just as slickly by Xhloe and Natasha. Their physical precision is such that it’s almost as if these camo clowns with their rosy cheeks and tearstained eyes are executing a mission.

The duo have previously portrayed confused cowboys (And Then the Rodeo Burned Down), spiralling housewives (What If They Ate the Baby?) and spit-promise scouts (A Letter to Lyndon B Johnson or God: Whoever Reads This First). Here the terrain is recognisable from those shows yet so much more expansive as they play numerous locals, from the corner shop to the highest office, in an Appalachian town. It gives more chance to showcase their vocal, as well as physical, agilities.
