SLOB IDOL #2 & 3: Wayne & Waynetta Slob.

Slob Couple: Wayne & Waynetta, from some comedy show for middle-aged, middle class, middle-of-the-road bores.

Here are some more exemplary slobs from BBC comedy, this time from Harry Enfield's Television Programme. Negative stereotyping of the white British underclass is driven home with such literal force here it is almost Daily Mail-esque in its prejudice.

All the same, Wayne and Waynetta are guiding lights for any aspiring slob couple, taking domestic cohabitation to the upper echelons of squalor and skirmish.

Waynetta Slob, played by greasy-skinned actress Kathy Burke, is also a fantastic role model for young girls interested in slob life, a traditionally male-dominated activity.

Who could forget the classic line "I'm smoking a fag!" – a catchphrase so infinitely hilarious that any slow-witted tosspot in the pub can roll it out and still appear as original and perceptive as if they'd just coined it themselves.
