Of course humour is a personal thing but to rate this as a one star is suggests maybe the reviewers like comedy where you can see the gags coming from several miles away. HNTLYL is probably too off-kilter and unobvious for their tiny minds to comprehend. Fact is, it is one of the few BBC sitcoms that is laugh out loud funny. The plot lines are offbeat and the characters of Don and particularly Eddie are original. The camping trip is possibly the best episode here. Then we have Sinead Moynihan as the object of Dan's lust, and understandably so as she is drop dead gorgeous. Perhaps it's a good thing the BBC only kept it to three series. As demonstrated by other recent BBC sitcoms like Outnumbered and My Family it's usually best to quit while you're ahead.
