Given this is back on the BBC Iplayer I thought it worth a review. TBF it's always been worth a review. Firstly it's amazing to think there were only 12 episodes of this show. It seems much more however that has to go down the the great writing and acting. Set in a tiny English pub the stories of the various characters intermingle to great comic effect. Every character has their part to play however the interplay between Ken the bar owner and his Mum is comedy gold. There is also a great deal of pathos in the human situations displayed in this setting. So much to bring a "tear tae a gless ee" as the saying goes. It really is an undiscovered gem and great to see the BBC giving some recognition to one of their best products in the last 25 years. To the Regiment! I wish I was there.
