I reckon the next one will be even better. It's such a pleasure working with this team... we'll see you all soon. Well, not soon. But at some point, honest."

    Effing Brilliant...!
    Two thirty somethings totally out of their depth but muddling on through, although mum (Daisy Haggard) is slightly more on top of things, but aren't they always? Dialogue that made me scream in a laugh out loud way. The days start out chaotic and a constant stream of bad luck will culminate in a comedy of errors that have been beautifully crafted. All accompanied by a stream of eff's. Swearing is a lot more common these days, the puritans have been proven wrong by many studies, smart people swear, it's now a scientific fact. It's a social glue, a vent for frustration, it's even effective as a pain reliever. By the end of ep 3, dad, (Martin Freeman) is starting to question his parenting 'skills' and realise that maybe he needs to stop shouting and swearing so much. But I think that his short fuse and constant frustration will sabotage his new found resolve. Kids don't come with a manual and we've all learned from our mistakes, they survive and continue to love us, luckily. It's nice to see others going through the ringer, I almost got broody but I've done my bit, never again! Thanks for this Marmite show, people are either loving or hating it. If you hate it too? Lighten up, the scenes with the kids in were filmed without swearing and then it's dubbed over. The little darlings were perfectly fine. I hope this show runs for a few more years.
