Jack Whitehall: Travels with My Father

I was pleasantly surprised by this series as I'm not really a big fan of Jack Whitehall (he is no Ricky Gervais) but his dad, Michael, I found hilarious. This grumpy old Aristocrat being "forced" to be open minded and trying new this is really funny. Watched the series in one day and hope for a season two!

Watched all six episodes in one day, having never been hugely familiar with Jack and Michael Whitehall prior. Liked the series for a number of reasons, not least that in the main, it avoided going to many of the obvious tourist attractions. It was well filmed too. The banter and relationship between father and soon, was initially highly amusing, though last some of its sharpness as the series progressed, before delivering some quite serious and touching messages at the end. Parts were clearly quite heavily staged and we could have easily done without the rather sorry driving lesson towards the end of the series, which was all too obviously planned for effect. Far more entertaining and informed than the vast majority of so called reality series, that proliferate our screens today.

This show is amazing, so funny! Dad has such amazing personality!! I know most of it is scripted, but it doesn't matter! Still so funny! But I need more than 2 episodes!!!!

It should be called "Michael Whitehall- Travels with my son". Michael is utterly brilliant. Jack's getting there, though....

First season and even parts of the second series is very funny. Then... unfortunately, it became more forced. I haven't bothered finishing the fourth series because it is more obviously scripted and trying too hard.
