It appears, from the reviews posted so far, that "Flowers" is a bit like Marmite. You are going to have to try it to see for yourself.
I'm firmly in the "I love it!" camp. Beautifully shot, great acting (with standout performance by Julian Barratt), very funny and heartbreaking (in a non-cheesy way).
Although all the characters seem utterly bonkers, we can all recognise their character traits as our own. We are just better at holding it in, and pretending to ourselves that it is not there. At all.
Although this works as a stand alone, it would be a travesty if it wasn't commissioned for a second series.
