In was a bit disappointed in it. I know it had some good lines but I actually found it a bit bleak and depressing. I hope they don't try to make a series of it, but I can't see how they can as they've already covered most of the lockdown issues and continual disappointments and frustrations of 2020.

Hope it doesn’t morph into a series. Not much to it if you take Lockdown out of it.

Did anyone notice that Jim Howick was playing an archery instructor? A nod to the character he plays in "Ghosts"!
I wasn't impressed with Pandamonium. A good cast with a weak script.

Alison Steadman was the only one whose speech I could entirely understand, although I got some of the dad’s as well. The rest, I couldn’t fathom. I thought it was going to be a good programme and was really disappointed.

I didnt think much of it. Possibly a pilot for a series so might improve.

Thought this was quite good and as one critic said, Alison Steadman got all the best lines....true.
Living through the pandemic. Booking holidays, holidays cancelled, wedding planned, wedding cancelled (nothing to do with the pandemic). Think it is a one off, but ripe for a series I guess
