Weakest episode in a weak series
Not one of the UK's best. What could have been a great series was let down by patchy casting and below par writing, this episode probably being the worst of the series. It tried too hard to be clever and funny, and lacked originality. It should have got no further than the cutting room floor.
Peter Davison was in good form, and most of the cast were above average trying to wade their way through, except for Daisy Aitken, who, as Lucy Chadwick was miscast and embarrassingly out of her depth.
It lacked the sparkle and wit of recent US sitcoms. Apart from Steven Moffat, David Renwick, the Irish writing team of Graham Linehan, Dylan Moran et al and the inspired output from Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, there is little quality sitcom material being written in the UK. Fear, Stress and Anger typifies the low quality and very dated material produced.
There is a lot to be said about writing as a team, US style, and including only the best lines, rather the zero quality control of a solo rather jaded writer.
