We've binge watched and enjoyed - although I must admit the Rotary Club admission dinner was a bit Too close to life in the '70s for comfort!

I watched the first episode and it will be my last.

The trailers put me off. I thought it looked rather stupid, even though it had that actress from the Peter Kay Car Pool programme and I thought she was very good in that.

So I can’t judge really.

I watched ten minutes of the first episode …… that was 9 minutes too long.

I've watched it all. Not brilliant, but I'd love to live in that Old folks home. Lots of nostalgia for the 80s.

I thoroughly enjoyed it. So cringeworthy, but that’s what made it amusing.

I agree with Calendargirl - the trailers put me off. I thought it looked rather uninspiring and silly.

I quite enjoyed it. Maybe because I like the various actors in it. All familiar.

Not impressed by the first episode. Might give it a second chance.

Loved it but I do have a strange sense of the ridiculous

I loved it. But if light fun to watch. Couldn’t believe Conleth Hill, who played Parker was Elsie ( the Smurf) in one of the car share episodes. He was absolutely hilarious in that.

I binge watched it last night, very sad I know, and I quite enjoyed it, but my taste isn’t very sophisticated.
Good cast I thought who were all good.

We are half way through and still thoroughly enjoying it.
