5.0 out of 5 stars Charming,simply charming., 17 Feb 2006
By A Customer
In the days when ITV made comedy programmes this was a rare gem-one that was actually funny.
Sadly overlooked "A fine romance" centres on middle aged love and we the viewer realise that the over 40's are no different from the youngsters where matters of the heart are concerned.
Judi Dench and Michael Williams are excellent as the hapless Laura and Mike who are singletons thrown together by well meaning relatives and friends.
By turns funny,cringe worthy and painful, this is a beautifully crafted series,highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars funny series, 7 April 2006
By A Customer
This is a funny series with wonderful actors, this DVD may be a good edition, I just wonder: if it is "The complete first series" where is the 7th episode "Playing Games"? There are only 6 episodes... I hope it will be in the next DVD... and it has no extra.
But if you like this kind of sit-com, you must buy it!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Fine Sitcom, 6 Nov 2008
By C. JONES "CJ" (Swansea, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is one of the most enjoyable series from the 80's - A British sitcom with a small but formidable cast. Judi Dench and Michael Williams create funny and sensitive portraits of people who find dating and mating a bit of a challenge, while Susan Penhaligon and Richard Warwick provide excellent support as the "perfect" couple who bring them together. It has characters you really care about, a fine script and some wonderful acting.

There are four series available and the quality is never strained. It is very much of its time and obviously won't appeal to everyone, but like all the best dramas its themes are timeless, and the very least you can say is that it does what it says on the tin. It is a fine romance, and a fine series.
