Reviews

Amazon.co.uk Review
Outnumbered follows the daily chaos of family life with two parents and three young children locked in an unequal contest. Containing strong elements of improvisation, this comedy is an honest portrayal of the well meaning parental incompetence that happens in most homes, as Mum and Dad attempt to raise their kids with the minimum of emotional damage for all concerned.

From the creators of Drop The Dead Donkey, Andy Hamilton & Guy Jenkin, Outnumbered is quite unlike any other family comedy seen before.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a gem of a comedy, 26 Nov 2008
Just discovered this gem of a comedy the other week on BBC.
Can't understand how this beautifully scripted and acted comedy has not been given more publicity.
The kids are absolutely brilliant and natural.
So glad it is available on DVD as I wasn't even aware of it first time around.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Star in the BBC's Crown, 1 Dec 2008
By Gillb (Berkshire, UK) - See all my reviews
I originally watched this when it was first out on the BBC & thought it was the funniest comedy for a very long time. I am now watching the second series & can't wait for that to be available on DVD so that I can watch it at will.
When you realise that much of this series is improvised, it just makes it all the more impressive, especially the children. However the acting from all the cast is superb. Let's hope there is a 3rd & 4th series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outnumbered, but gladly so., 24 Nov 2008
By Ms. Amy Watt "amew1982" (Glasgow, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a true gem in the crown of British comedy.
Whether you are a parent, a spouse, or neither, this will give you plenty to laugh about. The writing is just perfect, and the characters are so true to life. The children are the real stars of the show though.

Watch this - you're missing a treat!

4.0 out of 5 stars earlier issue, but still funny.
The episodes were very funny, but I prefer the later TV editions where the children are older and more 'at ease' with their characters. Worth having though.

I think this is the best sit com we've seen for years. The children are amazing. I believe it is largely improvised, not scripted which makes it even more amazing. Read more
