This Way Up review
I try not to get over excited with first episodes of a show as many a time they can be great only for the rest to disappoint, but for once I don't think this is going to be the case as we're in the hands of Horgan and Bea who once again show here that they're two incredibly talented individuals.

For Aisling Bea, the best way to star in a funny sitcom was to write it herself. Here, she talks about her father's death, social activism and not always trusting her own head.
