Discovered this a couple of weeks back and binged the first series. Very enjoyable. That snobby woman is great.

[V8covin]

Seems to be more swearing this series

[DoctorX]

I noticed that too. Great acting and dialogue.

[Steamer]

It’s great... but, the annoying girlfriend and son are just a bit too annoying if I’m in the wrong frame of mind.

[Too Drunk to Funk]

It is great, only discovered the series recently.

[strummerville]

Another excellent episode yesterday. Very well written and acted.

Yes but it wasn't particularly funny....poor Michael

Peter Mullan is such a good actor...

doesn’t even have to say anything, his expressions say it all.

The son is irritating, they could do without him.

Agreed, I also like the grandparents. I guess I can relate with the granddad's outlook...

Good final episode tonight but I'm not really sure where else they can go with it now.

I haven't seen the last episode yet but a 3rd series has been commissioned

the "girls just wanna have fun" scene was so sad despite having no dialogue. So well done.

But I agree with the comments about the son+girlfriend. A bit too dappy sometimes.

I'm enjoying this programme. Very cringeworthy with the poor mum being taken advantage of. I still see scope for the programme to continue into the next series.

Despite being nearly 20 years younger than the mum, I'm finding I have some weird crush on her!

Maybe it will be based at Michael's apartment in Spain with the family visiting

Friend of mine worked on it, I love the awkwardness. Any scene with Cathy and Michael is wonderful to watch.

Son & girlfriend can irritate on occasion though
