. why watch a tv drama ( bill a a comedy ) in which none of the character be likable or even interesting people . i can sort of see what the writer david renwick be try to achieve represent the misdirection and bad taste surprise that he put into one foot in the grave and etc . i admit that the script make a bit more of an effort than most on british tv at the moment . but really . who care about these people . they be cold bore . another poster mention the scene in which the woman sit down to watch a video of herself and her deceased ex boyfriend shagging . that be the moment when i switch off this programme and never to return . p. s. it interest to note that the poster who do not like this series be all british and whereas those who praise it be mostly in other country . this reflect the fact that when the bbc broadcast this series it be ignore by viewer and sank like a stone . p. p. s. good news for those who like it . there will be a second series in autumn 2007 though without the male lead . it sound like the bbc have decide to turn it into a more conventional 30 minute sitcom .
