That was David Threlfall??

This is surprisingly fun. Was expecting to hate it but its really enjoyable and silly with occasional actually funny jokes.

Bad points: fielding's performance comes across really flat. He's playing a sweeter version of vince noir, but he really doesn't need too. I guess Turpin is supposed to be naive but it seems like the script was written with vince noir in mind.

I can't stand Marc Wooton. He stinks. H3 stunk up delocated and he's stinking up this.

Good points:

Everyone's in this and it feels very British, I like that vibe.

Some of the direction is genuinely impressive.

Mark heap is just fantastic. The

Agree that it needs Barratt. I really doubt he wants to do it but would be amazing if they get him as a villan.

6.5/10 overall

Yes! That was great.

I've got a theory that if there's a S2 Barratt will be the series-long antagonist.

Episode 4 was a bit pants.Bold of them to have essentially a Lord Flashheart character. It took me ages to realise that was Connor Swindells. He's got more range than I gave him credit for.

Ant Farm Keyboard

The completely needless musical sequence was the highlight for me.

I'm really enjoying this. Everyone is hamming it up but in a good way.

It seems as though everyone's having a really fun time making it, which is sort of contagious even if the bones of it aren't anything special. There are a few properly good gags, though, and even more basic stuff like the "dick" double entendres are often well-executed.
