The Cockfields

Articulates the nuances of family life in a subtle and good-natured way.

I have lived every minute especially Bobby Ball. Classic British humour. I hope we see more of this it could become our new Royle Family. I have read the other review I'm not sure what they were watching must have had a sense of humour bypass!!! LOVE IT!!!

I absolutely love The Cockfields. I came across it by chance last year and was excited to see a new series had come out recently with 6 episodes Thai time! My 14 year old enjoys watching it with us. It's a well observed comedy with every day situations & a few poignant moments thrown in that may bring a tear of joy to the eye. The scenery of the Isle of Wight is lovely and relaxing and makes me want to visit. I was apprehensive with the replacement of the late Bobby Ball as Ray, but Gregor Fisher of Rab C Nesbitt fame does the character justice. Also like the new girlfriend Esther-previously seen in Alan Partridge. Can't wait for the Xmas special!!

I wasn't sure what 'genre' we were watching for the first ten minutes and then just started laughing. By the end of the third episode, we were truly crying with laughter. That hasn't happened in a long time. Sue Johnston and Bobby Ball are wonderful but June Watson, in the third episode is hilarious and the stand out performance. Fantastic ensemble piece. Watch it for Nigel Havers' hair alone!

I've just started watching this and I love it. It's a gentle, very well observed comedy. Bobby Ball is a revelation and I think the strongest member of the cast. His face when confronted with the tarty middle aged entertainer he fancies, whilst on a care home visit, is comedy gold. What a great actor he's turned out to be.
