    Beautiful

    What an amazing series. Peter Davidson was phenomenal as was all the cast. Absolutely loved this. Fabulous story writing. If you haven't watched it yet, indulge yourself. It's sad, emotional yet funny in parts.

    Perfect drama- not high brow but doesn't intend to be!

    Great cast, plot and acting. A pleasure to watch. Just the sort of thing needed currently to switch off from the real drama of the world. Knockout cast and great writing.

    REAL LIFE!

    Fabulous series. I certainly did NOT want it to end. GREAT acting, interesting and absorbing story lines, exactly what I needed in this crazy world - to turn off and tune in to something lovely, heart-warming, thoughtful, and caring, even with all the twists and turns, that really are normal in REAL life!

    Thanks for this. AND, well, it would be great to look forward to a Season Two! Hint hint.....
