Fantastic. The BBC finally produce some comedy worth watching!

I recently caught the entire series on BBC3 back to back in one evening and must confess, I was laughing out loud more than any BBC comedy for a very long time.

James Corden and Ruth Jones should be commended for writing a show and not making themselves the central characters a-la Ricky Gervais, Steve Coogan and Co.

Great music throughout the series and some genuinely touching moments as well as some slightly 'blue' ones but all in all it is a very refreshing step in the right direction for the Beeb.

Really looking forward to the second series and finding out what Uncle Bryn and Stacey's gay brother did on that boat trip!
