Uncle

Really great and surprising. While it may not be the most original, the characters really hold it up. It's much more of a character comedy more than a situational comedy. It has it's own personality, I LOVE the songs, and it got me so invested and connected I was in tears at one particular episode, and while season three isn't as strong as the first two, due to it falling into British tv tropes more than I'd like, it still got me. I was genuinely quite sad and close to tears by the finale, I loved the moment with Val, and the final mortal kombat game between Andy and Errol. It was so cathartic and heart wrenching simultaneously to see Andy do what he's been struggling with the whole series, show his feelings. Overall, great show, I can recommend it, and it struck quite a chord with me so yeah, great.

This is a really great comedy drama TV series. I laughed all the way. I particularly loved the music video "No Survivors"

Andy, Nick Helm is a fantastic character who is not entirely sympathetic to his young nephew Errol played by Elliot Speller- Gillott. Andy is charged with looking after Errol, and perhaps his ideas of life skills are not entirely appropriate for the nephew that has been put in his charge.

Daisy Haggard is the absolutely gorgeous and fun sister, she adds to the chaos and confusion of Andy's love life. I'd love to have her as an extra sister.

I saw the earlier channel 4 pilot to this, and the first episode was remade and polished the script to perfection. My only regret is that I can only get this on DVD not Blu Ray Boo Hoo.

Uncle is a well written comedy and Nick Helm is an underrated talent..

I started watching the first few episodes and unded up binge watching the entire 3 series..

Such a great find, and I can't believe that I somehow missed this series when it originally aired. Filled with heart, laughter, pathos and addresses more serious issues such as suicide. drug dependency and bullying without mocking them. The acting's great, especially from the young nephew Errol. I've binged 5 episodes so far and looking forward to the next 15. Bravo!

Three episodes in and so far this is a well written and likable sitcom. Don't be put off by the trailer which didn't really do it justice or the fact that it's screening on the home to some of the worst crimes against TV comedy in recent years, BBC3.

The basic premise is a down on his luck uncle, recently split from his girlfriend and feeling suicidal, saved at the last minute by a call from his sister asking him to look after his nephew. Cue initial hostility followed by gradually thawing / odd couple relationship and some quite moving moments for a sitcom.

It's funny but not really laugh out loud funny that often but somehow that seems to suit its gentle, at times almost Wes Andersonesque, style.

Overall, best new sitcom I've seen in a while and well worth checking out.
