This show existed under my radar until the Christmas special, after I saw that I went back & watched some earlier episodes & was disappointed I had missed out on what I now believe to be one if not the best British comedy show currently airing.
I knew who Hugh Dennis was but had no idea he was an actor let alone capable of the performance he puts in here. He plays it with extreme calm & apparent laziness yet it fits the character & plot so well.
They delivered a special ep for this opening show of the season. Any show that films in open locations is a win & they did it well. Multiple London landmarks were used & I found this fun to watch. There also appears to be a mildly intriguing arc regarding the money.
My favourite lines of the ep.
Ben's so bright as well, & I love his attitude as well. He throws himself into everything.
Including septic tanks
Sorry
