Review

Perfection

I recently rewatched this series for the first time in years and loved it all over again.

Amazing casting, hilarious storylining and gorgeous representation of growing up gay in pre-millennium Britain.

Gloriously camp and OTT, but rooted in real life experience, every episode has you laughing out loud. There's some really clever writing (and some industry in-jokes I missed the first time round) and guest characters that help flesh out a fantastic ensemble... you know that anything Olivia Colman is in will be fantastic and she brings the maternal character t9 life brilliantly.

Set primarily in 1997/1998 thee are a few anachronisms with a lot of 80s cultural references, but you can overlook that for the sheer joy that the rest of the show is.
