Trivia
The second episode of the first series was the show's original pilot; then the producers made some changes which is reflected in the rest of the run. Differences include the lighting and Mark Heap playing Jim as a more (quasi)masculine, less strange character.

Goofs
Tamsin Greig wears a wig to play the role of Jackie. However, the wig she is wearing in the opening credits is noticeably longer and wavier than the one seen in most episodes. The exception is episode two of the first series, which was originally the pilot, suggesting the credits were filmed alongside it.

Excellent Comedy Series, well written and hilarious!

Friday Night Dinner is an excellent sitcom starring Tasmin Greig, Simon Bird, Paul Ritter and Tom Rosenthal. Paul Ritter who plays Dad is particularly funny and provides the most gags in each episode. One of my favourite shows on TV! I've never laughed so much watching some of these episodes. All 3 series are funny, crude and extremely well written. I prefer Simon Bird in this role as Adam than I do as Will in The Inbetweeners and I love The Inbetweeners so that's saying something. Nothing but praise for Friday Night Dinner. Jim the neighbour is also brilliant, the idea of him being frightened of his own dog makes me laugh and Jim is just hilarious and awkward.

Outstanding series, I would recommend it highly! It's a shame we only have 3 series, I really want more of Friday Night Dinner.
