Chivalry

First thing I have ever seen Steve Coogan in I didn't appreciate. Cast is ok, (except for Aisling Bea hamming it up as usual), but the script is confusing and the "plot'/purpose of this programme unclear. Overall this is just a turn off. Steve Coogan so often totally nails whatever he is involved in. Not here, not sure why! But maybe just the co-writing collaboration doesn't work. Really disappointed because I wanted and expected to like it because of Steve, but just couldn't.

Normally Coogan in post partridge is execrable, everything he has been in is worse than imaginable. In this however he tries not to be funny but actually is a lot better for it. Actually rather watchable in fact. Solemani seems to be in a totally unsuitable woke marriage that seems totally unbelievable. She does seem to enjoy prancing about in knickers which showcase her enviable figure. The premise of post metoo is rather clumsily done and written for effect, the scenes in LA are beautifully shot and give it a slick feel. Having said that I felt compelled to watch it to the rather unsatisfactory ending.

I'm a big Partridge fan (who isn't) and was half expecting this to be a full on Partridge style comedy but was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't.

It's not a laugh out loud comedy, more of a stylish easy watching life drama that reminds me of 'Episodes' with Matt Le Blanc.

Like both leads and supporting cast and hope there will be a series 2 to conclude what happens to the main characters.

This was a really clever show.

The message was very strong and it was very brave of the writers to approach those issues.

The relationship with Bobby and Cameron is incredible to watch.

I really hope they have a second series.

Well done to all involved.

Some of the reviews for this are really harsh. Yes ok it is a bit of a 'will they, won't they' underneath all the social commentary, but it's intelligent, fast and pretty funny too. Although I agree the ending was unsatisfactory. Really hope there will be a second series.
