The Cockfields

I have lived every minute especially Bobby Ball. Classic British humour. I hope we see more of this it could become our new Royle Family. I have read the other review I'm not sure what they were watching must have had a sense of humour bypass!!! LOVE IT!!!

Let's face it we live in a time where humour is dead and everything upsets someone. Well not in this case, this series is the warmest, funniest least upsetting of any comedy series of the last 10 years or so. The acting and the writing is impeccable. The first series was magical and the second series is on a par and I just want more. What a coup for UK Gold. I don't want to single anybody out because they are all great, but, I have to make a special mention for Joe Wilkinson, what a talented guy. If you want to feel good about life then watch this fantastic series.

Excellent.Thoroughly enjoyed the 3 episodes.A very subtle study of people.Reminded me of the Royle family in parts. Excellent acting from all especially Bobby Ball.His facial expressions are brilliant.

I wasn't sure what 'genre' we were watching for the first ten minutes and then just started laughing. By the end of the third episode, we were truly crying with laughter. That hasn't happened in a long time. Sue Johnston and Bobby Ball are wonderful but June Watson, in the third episode is hilarious and the stand out performance. Fantastic ensemble piece. Watch it for Nigel Havers' hair alone!

Having recently discovered the Chattabix podcast with the writers David Earl and Joe Wilkinson, I found out about The Cockfields. It's a gentle meander about a family and their interactions with each other, and other people. Funny, annoying, tender and odd moments occur, just like with my family (and probably yours). Hope there's a 3rd series.
