When taxi business owner Max Vivaldi hires Danny Baveystock - an antique expert from an auction house in London - to come over to his home town of Mumbles, Swansea to value his bakelite telephone, his high maintenance family are less than impressed with the £200 estimated once fees have been deducted. However over dinner, Danny finds a much more interesting case when Max recounts how a will of one his ancestors entitled the Vivaldi's to a stake of land that now constitutes the whole city, and as such makes Max the rightful owner of Swansea. Interested by the possibilities, Danny enlists the aid of his fellow London colleagues to work on verifying Max's claim. Meanwhile Danny takes in the Swansea sites with Max's eldest daughter Maria, who takes him to the pub with her on the way to meet her boyfriend Gethin. But the evening is cut short when Gethin announces he has been having an affair with a woman at work and breaks up with Maria. Upset she goes to confront the woman the next day but

Eager to tell Val the news that the Vivaldi clan now own Swansea, Max is in for his own surprise when he arrives home to find Val's note announcing she has left him for another man. In panic, Max reseals the note pretending not to have read it. The next day Val discovers what has happened when she sees Max all over the news and hurries back home where Max pretends like nothing has happened. But Val eventually learns that Max does know the truth when she realises the envelope was sealed differently and promises Max that her affair is over. The rest of the Vivaldi family also struggles to come to terms with the new turn of events. While Candy revels in the new press attention, Leo is less than thrilled at his father's new found fame due to the fact that it was through his father's identity that Leo built up his secret £50,000 business.

This is of little concern to Max who is still struggling to cope with the knowledge of Val's affair, especially as she refuses to name the man she ran away with.

Meanwhile, Danny is all set to leave Swansea now that Max has abdicated his ownership of the city but first decides to make one last ditch attempt to stop Rico from marrying Big Claire.

Reviews

lisaglonghurst A tremendous view of Swansea, Wales and its kin. As an American living in Swansea for 6 years, this show proved my point of view. So VERY funny. I don't know why they did not make another series but I really hope they do. Note to BBC Wales. :)The daughter Candy is the same girl from the "porn" scenes in "Love Actually". One of the lighter moments from the show...look out for it "I'm an MPEG!" and "I'm going to change my name to Candy ZETA if I'm going to be famous!" And Griff Rhys Jones is further proof that Welshmen have a wicked sense of humor. Watch it and roar with laughter!!!!
cloisterbell-1 The John Scott Martin connection is great. As broadcast on BBC America,this series proves that Russell D. Davies was the perfect person to adapt Doctor Who for a modern (mainstream) audience. In many ways it appears to be his love letter to Wales. For the first time since Blue Scar, a WELSH drama. It depends on stereotypes to be sure, but they are lovingly realized, full of nostalgia, beauty, affection, and great sentimentality. I love it, with a big smile on my face throughout. Brilliant. Without spoilers, the story contains superlative acting, realistic drama, lines and stories much more similar to "Bob and Rose" than "Queer as Folk" but similar in approach. One thing that really appeals is the direct comedy. It's refreshing that this seems to be essentially a comedy, without the constraints of "drama". Davies seems to relish in this liberation, especially the manicness this allows.
evebay39 I completely agree with the other review. We started off recording this and watching Blackpool - by week 3 it reversed and we only watched the rest of the incredibly poor Blackpool (Potter knock-off) to get it finished.But Mine all Mine was a joy. It was funny, wonderfully written and beautifully performed (Siwan Morris is a superb discovery). The Shakespearean subplots gave the script a richness other writers can only dream of for their main ideas. The off-the-cuff humour had us in stitches (when Max takes over TV and accuses the helpers of grooming his son, the mad taxi rides, the slightly subverted fish-out-of-water storyline for Danny).Davies and Paul Abbott are clearly our best writers in TV (more so than the arrogant Poliakoff, who seems to be copy/pasting his stuff since the beautiful Shooting the Past).Nasty cliff hanger though. BAD ITV.Pleased to see it is finally getting a DVD release in March. Unlike Blackpool, we've already pre-ordered this one. Now how about Davies's kids progs finally getting a release?
rapout Brilliant comedy. But it leaves me wondering; is that all there is? I really wanted to continue to see Maria (Siwan Morris). Never mind. Not many shows keep me watching. This is (was) one of the best. As usual, Griff Rhys Jones was funny as ever. I loved him in the Smith and Jones series. This is the type of show that is so stupid but so brilliant, that you just have to see the next episode to see what happens. Just when you think you have it figured out, something different happens that makes you laugh. I never took it seriously, but only as pure entertainment. The scenes with everyone running around like chickens with their heads cut off and the hurry, hurry, hurry music reminds me of the Benny Hill series. It seems like every episode had to have one. The biggest down fall of the show is that it finished tonight. It leaves you with questions? Like, Is there going to be another series?Jo Stone-Fewings, that played Danny had me laughing at the end. After I got used to his hair, I liked the character.
