It’s a credit to Pete Jackson’s writing and the cast’s acting prowess that the listener can switch from laughing out loud to rapt silence.
It’s a credit to Pete Jackson’s writing and the cast’s acting prowess that the listener can switch from laughing out loud to rapt silence. – Jane Anderson * Radio Times *
Final episode of what has been an astonishingly good new comedy series…The cast is impressive, the acting superb and if Pete Jackson, who wrote it from his own experience, doesn’t get a prize there’s no justice. – Gillian Reynolds * The Daily Telegraph *
…brilliant six-part comedy drama written by Pete Jackson. Each of the 15-minute vignettes unspool like manic Canterbury Tales, offering a set of soliloquies built around the awkward weekly meetings of disparate characters…The series feels sharp and fresh… – Priya Elan * The Guardian *
Inspired and inspiring * The Radio Times *
Thoughtful, recognisable…seriously funny – Gillian Reynolds * The Telegraph *
Brilliantly played by a solid gold cast – Priya Elan * The Guardian *
This series never disappoints…the writing and acting is consistently top notch and it balances dark comedy with human sorrow as expertly as a finely tuned racing car – The Radio Times * Jane Anderson *
Eloquent, moving and funny – The Observer * Stephanie Billen *
About The Author
Pete Jackson
Writer Pete Jackson is a recovering alcoholic and has spent time with Alcoholics Anonymous. It was there he found, as many people do, support from the unlikeliest group of disparate souls, all banded together due to one common bond. As well as offering the support he needed throughout a difficult time, AA also offered a weekly, sometimes daily, dose of hilarity, upset, heartbreak and friendship.
