Pretty Good

A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

I've only started wacthing this over the last few months and fell in love with it as soon as i saw it although i think it was slow starting this show was it really gets better each episode....you also can relate to the characters ie Antony is just like me and the whole family in away is like mine,and it because of Ralf little (Antony) that i wacthed this show cause I'm a big fan of his and I'm glad i did OK so there isn't a laugh every line like most comedies but then thats not real life and this is just like real life i love it and would recommend it to anyone and it is now my 2nd favourite sitcom made to date!!!!!!!9 out of 10 is about right

An hour long treat just aired on BBC One and what a wonderful episode it was -an other one. Shameless as always, the full cast are at their best -now with Nana as the center of attention as she and her bed moved into the living room.A beautiful, stunning scene between Sue Johnston (Barbara Royle) and Liz Smith (her Mum) with a good long shot at the end of that scene, just watching the two together whilst music from the radio is playing. The clever writing (including Caroline Aherne) and brilliant performances of the cast made this an extraordinary episode where -in spite of the 'lack' of manners or good behaviour, this is a strong, loving family. And that's where it's all about -in my opinion. The serious scenes are seamlessly followed by the hilarious ones as indeed life itself can be -at least if you're open to that kind of absurdity.I don't wish to write any spoilers, although I did write it on top of my comment but to be on the safe side I just leave it there to be.Just Beautiful.Pieter

Totally unique.Tremendous observational comedy.We all know folk like these characters. The writing and acting are top notch especially Ricky T who really is one of the best character actors that the UK has produced. The episodes can be watched time and time again and are still funny after repeated viewings.Very few UK sitcoms are totally shot on film but in this case it lends a documentary feel to the whole proceedings.Thoroughly enjoyable and well reccomended.

Just what i hate, more northern rubbish who wants to see a family with the intelligance of 5 year olds. It seems to be one of those comedy's where we should laugh when nothing paticular is going on and this is tv at it's worst SHAME ON YOU BBC
