I only came across this series by accident, and I'm glad I did. I wasn't sure about E01 but, there were bits that showed promise so, I decided I'd give it a go and continue viewing. I'm glad I did. E02 had my sides split from laughing. Being a sixties child and seeing British comedy of the time on TV, even in Southern Ireland, it was an eye opener to see how shows were put together from the offscreen side, all the work put in to get it together, in all aspects. As a rugby fan, the unspoken scene with the rugby ball standing in for a Sunday roast in rehearsals, was hilarious. The skills showed by Gemma in the non-voiced scene made me wonder, has she played basketball or net ball before? The way she handled that ball was not acting, that was pure skill. I'm only up to E03 so I cannot comment on the rest of the series, except to say, it's really worth watching. The irony of this particular episode is this. I'm watching it in the week that Ireland is going for a double Grand Slam in Rugby, Senior and U20. There is a scene where Barbara "Gemma" unexpectdly gets her period before first recording. This same week, the Irish Women's Rugby team became the first team in the World, to have their shorts colour changed, from white to blue, for that exact reason. I know the English Roses women's team have pushed for this in soccer, I haven't heard if they have been successful yet. I suggest they should quote the IRFU as an example of modern thinking, that is only decades overdue but has come to rights, eventually. It is said, life imitates art, sometimes art imitates life. A small but, very important scene, may just have paved the way for women in sports, and life in general. I hope so, and I'm a man. Gemma, Morwenna, and all the gang, this series rocks; and take that from a grandfather who turned 65 at the beginning of March. Thank you for my comedic birthday preasent, it is a pleasant shot in the arm. And thank you for kicking fake men in the balls, they need waking up.

I love this
