I quite liked it, but thought some of the dialogue felt a bit unnatural/forced - some of Douglas' wife's exclamations, for instance, like 'bollocking tit wankery' (she didn't actually say that, but it was that sort of thing, and didn't really suit her character).
The wordy back-and-forth between Douglas and the other bloke near the beginning had a Yes Minister feel to it, interestingly, and made it more sitcom than drama for at least that moment.
I'm intrigued to see how it plays out, and if we find out exactly what the joke was.
