Just watched every episode back to back. Crying and laughing at the same time. Loved it.

I was just about to start a thread about this.
I've watched the first 3 episodes. Same here, I think it's really well scripted and acted, at first I thought it was going to be too much like The Office, in the scenes at the Newspaper.

Finished the season this morning. Loved it - not many programmes can make you laugh one second and cry the next.

SavageBeauty73 · 09/03/2019 14:30

I'm episode 3. It's so good.

Savoury99 · 09/03/2019 20:28

Just finished it. Not laughed and cried this much at a series since Derek.

IamFrauBlucher · 09/03/2019 20:50

Just finished. I'm absolutely in pieces. How does he do it?

Livedandlearned · 09/03/2019 20:52

Loved it too.

drinkswineoutofamug · 09/03/2019 21:15

Just started, loved feeding the dog baked beans

Yes, it's excellent and I've never been RG's biggest fan before. Loved all the characters and it was sad, touching and funny.

BitOfFun · 10/03/2019 04:13

Just binged the entire series. As a 45 year old with Stage 4 breast cancer, it was a hard but great watch. Even though I had to listen to my DP chipping in with how he'd be exactly the same HmmGrin

Is this on Netflix?

TanteRose · 10/03/2019 04:27

On Netflix yes.
I just started this last night after reading the review in the Graun.

I've on seen the first episode but the acting is tremendous by the whole cast.

Brilliant stuff

Margot33 · 10/03/2019 04:29

Thanks I'll look out for that.

EdWinchester · 10/03/2019 09:55

I watched all of it in one go. It was lovely.

RuggyPeg · 10/03/2019 10:02

I'm a big RG fan and I loved it. Tiny bit clichéd and a bit like his dentist film but really good despite all that. Loved the woman in the cemetery on the bench and is Ashley wotsit ageing backwards?

WingBingo · 10/03/2019 15:21

I loved it.

He used several bits of dialogue from his stand up. I thought this was clever but DH thinks it is lazy writing.

OneToThree · 11/03/2019 07:17

I’m planning on watching it all today. Can’t wait. Have loved everything he does.

Decormad38 · 11/03/2019 07:21

Watched all 6 in a row. Pissed dh off by laughing then crying constantly. I think I want to marry RG!

mrsdolittle · 11/03/2019 08:54

Just love it. Not a huge RG fan but this has definitely turned me.

One minute laughing, the next crying. Just wonderful

Afternooninthepark · 11/03/2019 09:21

I binge watched it on Saturday it was great, I just love everything he does.

OneToThree · 11/03/2019 12:35

Finished. In the space of 3 seconds I had sad tears rolling down my face to actually laughing out loud. How the fuck does he do that!! Brilliant.

MollysLips · 11/03/2019 12:39

Meh. It was OK. The last episode was my least favourite; every character making speeches giving out Life Advice. Like, who does that?

I think The Office was better at striking the right balance between comedy and pathos.

I much prefer Fleabag. That's emotional without stumbling into schmaltz.

TinselAndKnickers · 12/03/2019 12:34

I am just watching now - it's at the beach scene when he's gone in. Crying my bloody eyes out GrinSad

Margot33 · 12/03/2019 12:50

Watched it all! It was absolutley brilliant!

drinkswineoutofamug · 12/03/2019 13:07

What is the breed of dog?

Celebelly · 12/03/2019 13:08

Binged this yesterday (yay maternity leave) and LOVED IT.
