Ladhood

Ladhood

Liam Williams again launches some very clever comedy reviewing the human condition. Despite the insertion of characters and some spoken narrative it really is a stream of thought ruminating over one simple topic each show.

Here Liam is a fly on the wall observing his formative moments that defined his future behaviours.

What I particularly like is the variety of comedy employed, from irony, through self-deprecation to farce.

My casual observation is this show is for a very sophisticated viewer and not many of those will be found watching on BBC 3

Series 2

Liam carried on examining his formative years to see if that would improve his present. It really was a brilliant script and the acting all round was great.

Series 3 was a great wrapping up of the series as the lads started to go their separate ways, I really enjoyed this whole series it had a really tight insightful script that was genuinely funny throughout

I shouldn't make comparisons but the style of humour is a little like Ricky Gervais and that is the highest of compliments, I can't wait to see was Liam will do next.

I did not grow up in the north of England, but this show captures a moment in time that I think will bring back memories for anyone in their 30s or 40s.

Looks like he has got a second season so looking forward to more craziness from the lads from Leeds !

Was recommended this by a friend and ended up binging it all in one night. It's not the perfect show by a long means but if you're around your 30s now and grew up in the north it will surely hit a lot of nostalgic notes with you.

It's the funniest show I've watched in a while, each episode has at least one laugh out loud moment. Really hope they make a second series, I am told it is based on a radio show, so the material is there.

Compelling, accurate and funny depiction of life growing up in the North of England in the late 90s/early noughties. Brought back memories of a misspent youth and made me laugh out loud.

Anyone saying this is a poor inbetweeners is completely missing the point. I couldn't recommend this more.

Great writing, directing and editing and simply stunning acting performances from the young cast. Funny, touching and brilliantly observed.
