I just discovered this series and watched the first two episodes of series 2. Some reviewers are comparing it to The Office, but it was cringey (which I didn't overly appreciate) and The Tourist Trap is not. I prefer The Tourist Trap. I thought some of the concepts were very clever and my husband and I both really enjoyed watching it (from Scotland). Especially liked the outdoor scenes and it's a double win for Wales because viewers are being encouraged to visit it.

Didn't know what to make of this series at the outset having no prior knowledge of it, but it didn't take long to realise it is special. It is funny and sad in equal measure, the characters are believable and you are drawn into the fascinating, scary world of mental illness in a psychiatric hospital. A very unusual, excellent piece of writing, brilliantly acted. 10 out of 10.
