I caught 3 out of the 5 episodes of this online. I can't find the other 2. It was enjoyable. Apparently some of it was improvised by the actors which is why I wanted to watch. You can't really tell except perhaps there are moments where the conversations seen a bit trite and cliche and this is probably because the actors were coming up with lines on the spot. So instead of feeling more raw and real which was probably the intention it instead just feels like they didn't bother with a script. The stories however are interesting and I was engaged while watching. There were little conclusions drawn however so they perhaps felt a bit lacking. I think this was an experiment that didn't turn out as well as it should. But better than a lot of television. Whether I would recommend it I'm not sure. I would probably say there are better things readily available to spend your time watching.

That was a very thoughtful review of the series by BlunderGuts. It should help people to decide whether to watch it.

I totally agree with the opinion that Jane Horrocks' episode was excellent; you could really feel for her situation. Likewise episode 5 with David Morissey caught in an awkward situation with an obsessive girl.

I didn't find the shortness of the episodes a problem. What I did feel was that the acting was excellent including Lacy Turner from Eastenders. There wasn't a great deal of story but I like that as you can concentrate on the characters, and to me it looked so real and not melodramatic at all.

So when you can feel for the characters and picture the position they are in, it's impressive. If I hadn't been told I would not have been able to tell that it was improvised.

If you like Mike Leigh, watch these episodes. I was not impressed by several critics who were so rather negative.
