Just watched the first episode with Alan Davies and Bill in the Peat District. The landscapes are utterly delightful and the gentle banter between these old mates is most pleasant. Sure not everyone's cup of tea (and what is?) but I found it a welcome and sublime change of pace from most documentaries.
Although there isnt a great deal that is spoken and most of the chatter is just whimsy it has its moments of stirring poignancy as Alan shares details of his traumatic childhood. Bill's soothing manner seems perfectly apt as his mate bears his soul.
This is an unscripted documentary and is very relaxing and endearing.
