I've got to start a thread on this - possibly my favourite series in recent years. Well written, well acted (IMHO) and extremely funny (and, I have to say, unbeatable in the Something Nice to Look At game), and for my money knocked spots of Bob and Rose.
It is however possible that I was the entire viewing figure as noone else seems to have seen it!

Well, it was nothing like My Family in that it was funny....
No, it was a Russell T Davies job (but don't let that put you off) about a chap who discovers that a family legend that they own the whole of Swansea is true (chap in question being played by Griff RJ, hence its inclusion on here). I thought it was huge fun; I think I've rewatched it more than anything else I own, and not just for the gorgeousness factor either. Top stuff. (IMHO).

They showed it just before Christmas and there was too much going on!
I wonder if Peter Fincham could be persuaded to recommission it.......

I wonder if Peter Fincham could be persuaded to recommission it....... You could use your feminine wiles.... orrrr, stick some mouldy old y-fronts on the end of a stick and threaten him with it by saying that they are John Prescotts Lucky Ys.
