Here We Go

I have only just discovered this show. Binge watched the latest series because I found it so funny. Now I am working my way through the earlier series. The stand out star of the show is undoubtedly Alison Steadman. Although having said that every character is well written. Jane Horrocks put in a very amusing guest appearance as a cheat at UNO. I am surprised to see so many negative reviews I think it is a very clever comedy.

One of the best comedies produced by the BBC in a long time, Here We Go is quick-witted in Its story of a relatable family. Not all of the characters are hits, but together they create a great chemistry which is always enjoyable thanks to some great casting.

Parkinson and Howick deliver the best of the comedy, Howick perfectly delivering the beta-male character who's behaviour is a continuous laugh. The plots are simple but delivered in an unconventional fashion and overall the series provides a fresh feature of light entertaining.

One extended family's experiences of not coping very well with 2020. Gentle observational humour builds up to a couple of set pieces which deliver real belly laughs.

I havent seen the Christmas pilot that people seem to be making reference to, just the first episode going to the theme park.

It feels a bit wooden sometimes, but that's just a style thing. The Office and Peep Show felt like that at the beginning also.

It really borrows heavily from that style of comedy, some of it feels a bit forced, but it is really funny. I laughed out loud at a few points.

The BBC, being the BBC of course cant help the obligatory tick boxing. But. It was a good show.

It is a time capsule of our present life. I hope for more episodes .
