In this 6-part comedy series, very successful Sara gets an ultimatum from her best friends. She either comes out to her parents or they will do it for her.
Heading Out is as charming as you'd expect from a comedy starring Sue Perkins. The supporting cast is really hilarious and so likable. I actually love all the characters on this show! They are played perfectly; subtly over-the-top...which may be just a standard British comedy thing that generally appeals to me but I have to note that the actors' take on the womens' characters are especially fresh to me. Not to mention the guest-stars alone make this show worth watching. You can tell that the cast are having so much fun and it sucks you in. It's pitch perfect for a light comedy yet still irreverent enough to keep it interesting. So many great shows on TV these days are unyieldingly dark and shocking in it's humour. It's nice to have a bit of respite from all the over-sexed or psychotic characters on TV delivering one-liners from a pool of blood which has sort of become the expectation from good TV these days. Aside from all of that Heading Out also happens to be really, really funny. I hope to see another season...even if it's just free on Youtube....(sorry!)
