The Change

Great script and actors. Very funny and quirky. Would love a 2nd series.

Thought Bridgette was great on Taskmaster and gave it a watch and binged the lot.

It's not just about the menopause. It's relatable to all those in a relationship. The cluelessness of her husband (Omid Djalili), the disdain of her teenage children and society's general denial of older women makes her realise she is worth more. I loved that she takes back some of those 3.5 million minutes of domestic drudgery (she's been keeping careful record) and hope lots of women start doing the same and head off on their own adventures.

I watched this over two days. I really enjoyed watching the story develop to see what happens to the quirky village folk.

This series is funny, witty , well written and acted .

I love the portrayal of the leading lady of a menopausal mum of two and married with a husband . I laughed at the scene at the doctors It's so true . What the woman is going through wanting to find herself get a way from life .

I think any woman going through the menopause Will totally love this series .

I found it refreshing and enjoyable to watch . Just a shame that there's not any more series. As it only had 6 episodes feel they need to Make series 2.

My hubby and I loved this series. We hope there will be a series 2, crossing fingers!

We love this kind of quirky English humor, it sort of reminds us of the Detectorists which the whole family absolutely loved.

The naysayers, who give this series a poor rating, just don't understand the quirky humor and whimsy that this show brings.

I am sad for them as they are missing out.

Maybe one needs to have an English heritage to get it?

We acted, well scripted, poignant and charming.

Turn off your need for something slick and open your heart to the pleasure of honest, loving, funny people who are willing to be part of a village.

As a (slightly) pre-menopausal male, I may not be the natural constituency for this show, but I hands-down loved it.

I've heard bits and pieces of Bridget Christie's comedy over the years, mostly on the radio, generally enjoying it but accepting it mostly as comic entertainment. This is a real step up: the writing is on point, big hearted and the larger than life West Country characters shine in every episode. There are laugh out loud moments in every episode.

The rustic folk-tinged score is a great counterpoint to the full range of tender to angry moments throughout. The central character's quest was not so different to my own mother's struggle to establish an identity as she hit her forties.

I watched this over a week and found it incredibly funny, sad, thought provoking and relatable.

I'm a post menopausal woman at 50, the scene's really made me stop and think about the mental overload that women are expected to carry. The thankless task of non ending housework and feeling like you lose your identity once you become a parent. It was great to see her journey back into the woods to find herself and in its own way a rite of passage to come through that transition. Not all transitions are joyful all of the time but that's the point. We need to be pushed outside our comfort zones to truly discover our inner selves, our super powers.

I felt it explored these topics really well, it was beautifully written, from the heart and authentic lived experiences. There are a serious amount of witty one liners, put me downs, quotes which made me laugh out loud, a lot, much to the annoyance of the teens in my house. There were also some harsh truths and facts written into the dialogue to help the viewers and the villagers understand why menopausal women are filled with rage. I'd highly recommend watching this.
