Can't stand the Rory Kinnear character almost ruined the series for me. Any pretence at comedy BBC TV had died years ago. The character was so big it transcended this series but compare this to the radio shows - they were outstanding.
Shame the RADIO version didn't transfer to tv. This is awful. Kinnear did not inherit any of his Dad's comedy timing and the writer should have lived off his Father Ted residuals.
A genius of a character.
Shame it didn't go beyond 3 series I would have liked a final episode to show Micheal and sinem getting married
Found this by coincidence and I really like it. Greetings from germany. :)
He’s very funny. He also has a radio show where his charcter is slightly different but still muddled
All three series are now on Netflix.

Martin Clunes is vicious!!

Agreed: they WERE outstanding. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Agreed. Radio or stage only. And Kinnear is absolutely dire.
@@stephenguppy8886 the live shows are absolutely outstanding.
I don't agree.
Count arthur strong great on stage and radio but awful on the bbcdefg oh you know what I mean not itv so I think you'll find I'm right I really do

It's utter shite. No idea how it goes out on prime time BBC One
Are you foreign?
Finally someone else who can see this is shit. Some of the comments on here imply that he's a comedy genius.
I bet you say the same about Red Dwarf...
It's not shite, it's just not your cup of tea.
Lot's of people think it is great comedy.
You just don't get it. "I'm afraid!"
