I have just watched the whole series. I'm blown away, and in bits. Anyone else seen this yet? The whole series has just been released on Channel 4 OD. I'm not sure I can ever watch this again, just so beautifully done but such a painful subject.

I haven’t watched it yet, but I really enjoyed the first two series and agree it’s very beautifully done.

Yes I binged it today!
Very emotional but great.
Really really enjoyed it.

Started watching series 1 yesterday, not heard of it before but loving it so far.

Glorybox2025 · 10/02/2025 07:38

The final series was really stunning. I wasn't expecting it.

I've watched 3 series over two days - I often feel the best comedy has a sadness within it (& vice versa) Katy Wix was the stand out for me.

Had a little cry.

Cried all the way through the last episode.Very emotional and true to life.
It was good how they did the ending .

SpanishJackie · 10/02/2025 21:16

Binged it, loved it, laughed, cried. This is an absolute must watch.

I've watched series one and two but I was worried throughout that Danny (is that the right name) might take his own life. Found it quite a hard watch eventhough bits of it were so funny. I'm not sure about watching series three if it's a sad one because I cried enough at the first two!

MrsLargeEmbodied · 11/02/2025 04:40

i enjoyed this so much
the final episode is so emotional

It's not that sad. It's really emotional but it is worth watching. It's still a comedy after all.

I laughed and cried. Absolutely brilliant.

MayIDestroyYou · 11/02/2025 16:13

I don’t know how - having determinedly not enjoyed any of it over past years - I’ve somehow binged S3 over two days - and wept fairly solidly through the final episode.

Far, far too schmaltzy and fairground tinted - but it was very affecting. And that end song will be ear-worming me for weeks now …

I noticed this new series today and watched it all. Loved all three series. The last ep was heart wrenching. Clever though.

Loved the whole thing.

BeMoreAmandaland · 13/02/2025 23:56

Can someone please message me & tell me what happens in the last episode because I can bear to watch it without knowing 🙏

BigDahliaFan · 14/02/2025 09:56

I just wept all through series one and two - not having really heard of it before. Just starting 3. And I was in floods through that too.

NoEffingWay · 14/02/2025 10:13

@BeMoreAmandaland I can't work out how to message you, and don't want to spoil it for others but I will say that it is a fitting ending for the series.

@NoEffingWay thank you :) another poster kindly messaged me

thepariscrimefiles · 14/02/2025 12:59

Just cried my way through season 3. Jon Pointing was amazing as Danny.

IamSallyBowles · 14/02/2025 23:41

fabulous - what an amazing fitting ending... I am still crying and smiling.

BigDahliaFan · 15/02/2025 07:48

Finished it last night. It was amazing.

PinkFrogss · 15/02/2025 10:18

Cried the entire way through the last episode, I hope the series gets the recognition it deserves and I can’t wait to see what Jack brings out next.

Yourownpersonaljesus · 20/02/2025 20:16

I've just watched the last episode. Very moving - especially Jules' part in it. Loved all three series so much. Such a great cast too.

LunaNorth · 20/02/2025 22:21

Jesus Christ I’m on the last one and it’s killing me 😢

MayIDestroyYou · 20/02/2025 22:35

Yup …

LunaNorth · 20/02/2025 23:01

That was one of the best finales I’ve ever watched. It deserves all the awards going, for the lad who plays Danny in particular.
