Just binge-watched this. (6 episodes). Refreshingly watchable being about a middle aged woman solicitor set in Melbourne.

5 Bedrooms is great, loved it.

Kitty Flanagan is brilliant
I don't know if you can get it in the UK but look out for Utopia, an office satire on working for government. She plays a glamorous and incredibly annoying very senior comms guru.

Roz is so unlikeable ! Lol
Is Gruber in love with her ? I thought they were man and wife at first, but I don't think they are ?
It is funny , I like Fisk a lot

SequinsandStiIettos · 25/08/2023 16:19

Ray loves her...as his sister! They are siblings so no, no incest here!

they're siblings.

I quite liked the first couple of episodes of Fisk but I can't seem to find any shows I feel compelled to watch all the way through.

the80sweregreat · 25/08/2023 16:33

Oh I must have missed that bit about him being her sister !
Series two is funny , I like ' Blendology '
Although they did change her room in series two which annoyed me a bit ( irrational I know )

the80sweregreat · 25/08/2023 16:43

I just knew that she would try a prank on 'Fun Peggy 'at the wrong time !
George is funny. Ds2 rarely ' gets the joke ' so he reminds me a bit of him. Also a ' gamer ' so maybe it is a generational thing there ?
Still Helen on her cup made me lol

ginislife · 25/08/2023 17:08

Ooooh have I read it right that series 2 is on ITVX ??? I loved this series. Binged watched it the other week. Very funny.

SequinsandStiIettos · 25/08/2023 17:12

Yes series 2 is on ITVX - a lovely pp let us know and I binged it in an afternoon! Brew Cake

the80sweregreat · 25/08/2023 17:13

I've yet to finish series two, but im still loving it and nice to see a few extra characters in it as well.

AntiHop · 25/08/2023 17:18

I loved it.

I especially liked the fact that she has no kids but this wasn't mentioned. Normalising a woman who isn't a mother, without this being a focal point.

the80sweregreat · 25/08/2023 17:44

It reminded me a bit of Colin from accounts as similar humor and some annoying characters
I am liking Aussie humour a lot lately

Undervaluedandsad · 25/08/2023 17:48

Found it by accident - loved it.

Umanresources · 25/08/2023 20:28

I'm watching it for the second time with my DP and still finding it funny. I think I'm seeing even more things to laugh at. Dark web for beginners has me creased up. I love George. My son lives in Portugal and he was telling me about Fisk. I could brag I'd seen both series. We'll probably watch series 2 again at Christmas when they are over! 😂

KellyMarieTunstall2 · 27/08/2023 21:04

I've just finished this and I loved it! I laughed so much that I cried. So we'll written. Loved the popovitchs, finders keepers!

IcedPurple · 28/08/2023 11:24

I love Australian humour so thanks for the tip!

YukoandHiro · 28/08/2023 11:25

Ooh thanks for the tip off! Will get started tonight

AgnestaVipers · 29/08/2023 18:32

We are only on episode 3 but I have CRIED laughing at this show! The knob painter pretty much killed me. And in general, I adore the experience of seeing a peri-menopausal (I would guess)woman just giving zero fucks about the world.

Have you seen Kath and Kim? Knob painter is in it and ever funnier.

winelove · 29/08/2023 18:40

Thanks for the ITVX season 2 hint.
Loved, loved it.
Loved Colin from Accounts
Loved Rake as well, though didn't like the ending too much on that.
Need to go and find 5 Bedrooms!

Umanresources · 29/08/2023 19:35

I've just read that 'webmaster' George was one of the contestants on Taskmaster Australia. I'm going to have to see if I can get hold of that somewhere!

AgnestaVipers · 29/08/2023 19:47

@MrsPelligrinoPetrichor , not seen that but will keep an eye out.

It's good to hear there's a second series!

Seddon · 29/08/2023 23:28

If you love Kitty's humour I'd also recommend her books, particularly on Audible where she reads them herself.

Mooserp · 30/08/2023 13:42

Just finished the first series after reading about it here. Enjoyed it, I love how people are quite blunt and rude but don't really take offence.

SequinsandStiIettos · 30/08/2023 15:54

Series 2 is on ITVX if you have access to it Smile
