Part funded by the British taxpayer, sadly, whilst it has moments of amusement, there are no laughs to be found.
Created by Lucy Beaumont, of Meet the Richardsons fame, and whilst I can applaud the creation of a new comedy centered around what most Brits would consider a downtrodden area of the country, it seems that more thought went into the local characterisations rather than the actual writing.
The cast are very talented but they can only do so much with a story and script lacking in thought.
I had high hopes but the balloon deflated rather too quickly.
