"Get past the tedious first episode and sit back and enjoy this wonderful drama series. But who cares about boring Nate and Brenda? It's David, Keith and Clare we love!"
"Addictive trash in which you can't quite work out why Carrie ended up with old man Big. These women are much too fussy when it comes to blokes but we miss it now its gone. Yes, even SJP!"
"Not just series 4 but any series. From psycho killing machine to hen-pecked hubby and doting dad in one episode- Tony is an anti-hero of our time.Is this the best thing on telly EVER?"
"Ridiculously overacted but wonderful spy drama. Are you sure you weren't cut out for honey traps? You'll be putting in your application for MI5 as soon as the first episode is over..."
"You'll hate all the characters at first and you'll continue to hate the main couple Steve and Susan but worth getting as every episode is a superbly-written playlet. Series 3 best."
"What's this? Henry VIII shouting Gertcha! at his servants? Must be Ray Winstone in fine form as the unruly monarch. Who's the Daddy? Henry most certainly was- and anyone who says otherwise is a goner!"
"Although the funniest lines were written by Dave Spikey and Neil Fitzmaurice, you have to admire Kay who does an Alec Guinness and plays 15 different characters here. Top bombing!"
"If you're a Liverpool fan, you have to grab the glory any place you can these days. Here's to the high point of the 'Hou let the Dogs out' era. Waiting for the Man U/ Arsenal 19 league titles DVD....."
"Before Jimmy Nail went plastic-surgery happy, this is one of the finest comedy-dramas ever made. As touching as it is funny and all the actors went on to bigger but not better- except perhaps Moxey..."
"No, not a sordid tale of former Miss Worlds being seduced by promises of Brucie Bonuses, but an odd drama without a single likeable character. Oh, and a very ginger man"
"Certainly not the only Gays in Manchester's Village, don't watch this with your Granny unless she likes seeing men get it on with each other (you never know- maybe she does!)"
"Ignore the awful ageing make up with wigs worse than Paul Daniels' and revel in this superb drama and wonder for the nth time why anyone ever voted for Thatcher or wore flares"
"Turn your viewing sessions into virtual gym visit replacements by occasionally getting off the couch and making a healthy fruity smoothie on your way back from the toilet"
