As a long-time fan of Delaney's 'Count Arthur Strong' (both radio and television), regarding him as a masterclass in character creation, each week of the BBC's sitcom series, I find myself actively scorning Rory Kinnear's comic attempts, whilst also puzzling Linehan's casting choice, considering he's somewhat of a veteran in the genre.
PLEASE, IS IT JUST ME or is Rory awful in front of three cameras and an audience? I'm far from disparaging his acting talents in other works (non-comedy TBH), however he should stay away from comedies, with particular avoidance of the traditional sitcom. Not only does it cringe up any featured scenes, however I felt he greatly weakened the shows potential to be heralded louder and more often, both critically and publicly.
Or, is it just me being nit-picky?
