j-murdoch862 A totally different slant on the 80's with a very good dynamic between the characters. It offers a comedic take on the trials and tribulations of a West African family bringing up their family in London.
monicabrown So funny and very 80's. Iris Elba has nailed it! I hope there's another series. The script is sharp and funny.
gb901 Created and starring idris elba - the new ofah this most certainly isn't. Reminds me of the ill conceived - and poorly received - early 2000s bbc alleged sitcom "the crouches" - and we all know what happened to that!
herbieonthemove I love this show. Sure, it's likely to mean more to people who were teenagers or older in the early-mid 1980's - for the brilliant music, the look, the jokes and vibe. People will probably love it or be rather underwhelmed, which is understandable. For people like my wide and I...50-something's we absolutely love it and are hoovering up the episodes double quick. Gentle, well crafted, joyful.
