Peacock

Funny premise, silly main character, no jokes. No setups. No punchlines. It's like a student film made on a bigger budget. One of those films your mates gets excited to show you and you sit through bland sketches and desperate gurning. I guess this is what BBC Comedy throws money at, trying to recreate the magic of PJDN. Average.

If you like the office then you should like this... the main character is like a David Brent personnel trainer.

It's not a side splitting comedy but it will give you a few chuckles. Hope they make more episodes as it has potential.

Andy Peacock, he's a personal trainer, he's forty, he's at home, he's looking for love.

I thoroughly enjoyed this show, it gets funnier as it progresses, the laughs are varied, some cracking one liners, some great cringe humour.

Andy's family, they are hilarious, I would love to see more of them, I got Friday Night Dinner vibes from them, more of that please.

Allan Mustafa, he's never going to disappoint, the guy is very, very talented. Andy is so relatable, many people are probably in this guy's situation, at home and trying to make it through life. It's very well observed.

How disappointing that it's just three episodes long, this wonderful show deserves a much longer run, this is a cracking show. BBC get your act together, more of this, and on at a better time.

9/10.

After seeing People Just Do Nothing many years ago, I watched Peacock the day it came out - binged it all and I'm going to revisit again. The plot is hilarious the whole idea of making everything cringe and awkward for comedic effect, it's what they do best. Still bringing the charm it did from PJDN.

The only downside is that you'll be done with it under 2 hours, watching the 3 same episodes may make it harder to re-watch. However it is so much better than The Curse the other series they brought out.

I'm really looking forward to what they bring out next!

This should've been longer than a few episodes. They could've fleshed it out more. I didn't really see the point of this series, the writing needs work. This felt like pumping out a series for the sake of doing it.
