Whites

Although there's nothing too original with the basic storyline of 'Whites' - the self-absorbed, ignorant lead, the sniveling assistant, the brazen smart-ass, the sassy female lead - it is none the less fun. When dissected, it's very much styled in the pattern of "The Office" (minus the interviews) but the actors put their own lovable quirkiness to their own characters. There's a bakers' dozen of laughs to be found - maybe not in the first episode - but as you get to know the characters, the more enjoyable the series becomes. Its good, consistent writing and you empathize with the them as good scripts should allow you to. Alan Davies is as annoying and fun as David Brent and Michael Scott. 'Whites' is an agreeable flavor of a sitcom as they come.

A hidden gem of a series. Terrible there's only one season of it. I hope they make more!! A lot of British comedies put me off (seem too silly) but not this one. It's hilarious!

The famous Kiki clip on Youtube made me watch this show, and I'm glad i did. This show is hilarious & entertaining from start to finish. The dialogues are very well written & made me genuinely laugh our loud numerous times throughout. Also the story is simple & straightforward, so it's easy to get into. At no point i felt bored or disinterested. All the characters have their own personalities & bring their own flair to the show. Ronald is a selfish but hilarious knob, Bib is a funny-unfunny guy, Kiki is dumb in the cutest way possible, and all the rest of the characters have their own attractive qualities. This show is a must watch IMO. I just hate the fact that they never made more seasons of it. Oh well, something is better than nothing!

This is one of the rare comedies that are actually funny! This one had me in stitches several times, and laughing often. A great cast of characters -- what a shame there's only one season!

This is a quirky, witty and quite often laugh-out-load funny comedy about the goings on in the kitchen of a posh restaurant. I really like this series and can't understand why it has received such mixed reviews; It has great characters played by a great cast, is very current in its subject matter (in these days where TV seems obsessed with posh cooking) and is actually funny. Alan Davis plays the main character - a chef called Roland White (hence the name of the program), whom I gather is based on a celebrity chef with the same surname but in French. I find Mr Davis a very likable actor to watch as well as being funny. By the way, it was mainly filmed at Thornbury Castle near Bristol.
