Pramface

Pramface is a show i constantly go back to rewatch. The actors are brilliant and the show is well written. The characters are hilarious and work brilliantly together. One of the BBC's best shows i highly recommend you give it a watch!

I was expecting to hate this series given that it is not really aimed at me (I am 64). However I find it genuinely witty without being the usual low-level smut that passes for comedy in many programmes and movies aimed at the 15-30 age group these days. The actors deliver their lines and play it at just the right level and it is good to see that there are writers about that can bring something , while not new, to the table that is above the level of the usual dross we are fed with. Anna Chancellor and Angus Deacon work well together as the parents of the pregnant daughter. Sean Verey as Jamie and Scarlett Alice Johnson as Laura make an engaging "couple" of expectant parents ably supported by Yasmin Paige and Dylan Edwards as Jamie's friends. It is refreshing to see "unknowns" (at least to me) making such a good job of comedy which would be easy to make a hash of.

Pramface is a witty and laugh out loud social comedy coming form the Brits and is targeted primarily at teenage audiences, but quite well balanced for those long past the target audience ages. Since the show focuses on such quite serious topics as teenage pregnancy, teenage parenting and the troubles and challenges of being a teenager and a parent while at the same time having to deal with one's own parents, but at the same time never fails to exaggerate and somewhat sketch such situations, there are many and many funny moments in this show.

Going hand in hand with another great British series (My Mad Fat Diary), Pramface is a high quality TV show, which manages to tackle serious topics with a laugh out loud attitude.

Thanks to the writers of this show. I got accidentally pregnant at 21 and the father was 19. We were too young and those years were a bit of a blur emotionally... the show with its humor is helping me negotiate old feelings and really move past it all. My son is my pride and joy and I'm so glad I didn't have the abortion, even though things didn't work out with his father.

Again, I'm just grateful to feel less alone, and enjoy the comedy and serious nature of the show all mix in! The actors are adorable... the parents are classic - I just feel like I can relate so much! I even tried alcohol and threw it all up just like she did! Brilliant.

We were captivated by Pramface from the first moments and delighted with the acting and timing of its young cast.

To have a funny, modern, endearingly lifelike story told without resort to the 'f' word every other breath was a delight. A second series was a real bonus. We told all our friends and hope they had as much fun as we did.

It has been the only programme worth watching on any channel in the last 12 months and lit up our week.

I am 71 and my husband is 78. Are we your oldest fans?

Thanks to all the cast for entertaining us so well.
