The best of many, many good things about this lovely series? As it's gone on it's got funnier, even as more dramatic storylines have come in. It's because the laughs come from the characters, of course, and the finale gives all of them a resolution (of a kind - series two is coming), while slipping in more gags than ever.
As Big Alan ponders whether to tell bonkers Brummie Nancy to go away, and Emma and Sunil tackle the problem of their son's birth coming days before their wedding, we're most interested in the love triangle between Stella (creator/writer Ruth Jones), nice boxer Sean and estranged hunk Rob.
The notion of a first love never dying has been strongly handled, carried by the performances of Jones and the serenely imposing Mark Lewis Jones as Rob. There's quite a bit more of the story to tell.
