Just stumbled upon this on ITV Hub
in skimming the TV schedules recently, the thought suddenly dawned on me where are the new comedies on ITV?
For all intents and purposes ITV seemed to have given up on comedy in return, for perpetual cheap tat like 'Reality TV'.
I simply love Brenda Blethin she is one of my favourite British actresses, absolutely superlative in everything she turns her hands to.
It's nice to see Barbara Flynn in anything I still fancy her rotten, and yes as far as I'm concerned she's certainly got it. I remember her mainly from the Beiderbecke series, with James Bolam. As well as Cracker with Robbie Coltrane, where she is his long suffering spouse.
I don't know Jimmy Akingbola in deed I have never heard of him, having really enjoyed watching him in this comedy he certainly deserves to be well known. His character of restrained pedantry is well observed, delivered and very funny, many so called comics could learn from him.
The script is written by Andy Hamilton and Guy Jenkins the same blokes who wrote, one of my absolute favourite TV comedies Drop the Dead Donkey.
I really like this comedy show and I hope it gets more than 1 Series, it certainly deserves to run on much longer. I have just seen online that indeed it's getting a 2nd Series which is brilliant news.
