Advantages: Too funny sometimes

Disadvantages: Too short always

This mini-series was one I really harped on about to my work colleagues to see, but they never caught it. Keith, the welsh taxi-driver, was one of the best crafted characters I've seen for years.

The series was 10 (I think), ten minutes slots after Attachments on BBC 2, and each one was just so well written.

I found myself so caught up, and keen to see the next one. It is rare I think, these days, to have television that gets some emotion from the audience. Keith made me wince in pain at his actions sometimes, but you still admired his blinkered courage in the face of every adversity.

Best line:
"My son is helping out clear away the local canal. So good of him, so good. Such I community minded child. And, like his headteacher says, its either that or explusion."
