Booooo! I shouted. Booooooooooo!

I was saying Boo-urns
Whistling nnocently

Didn't have any expectations but when I got round to watching it was truly dreadful. On the plus Russell Howard was reasonable but the comedy, such as it was, seemed to consist of a number of over the top caricatures none of which seemed remotely realistic. His sister just seemed to be reprising her act from 'Him and Her'.

Even as a vehicle for Russell Howard I'm not sure it worked as his performance seemed the most restrained. Is this how BBC commissioners think the world works outside of North London?
