Mum makes the mother of all returns

Poignant is a word that doesn't get used much these days, but it fits Mum (BBC Two) like a glove. In this spare, quiet sitcom, deep emotions aren't so much plumbed as plucked at in a piquant, reserved, achingly sympathetic way.

TV preview: Mum, BBC2

The first series of Mum found saintly Cathy (Lesley Manville) mourning the death of her husband and dealing with her, erm, colourful family. The second series starts with a marginally lighter issue. She is about to turn sixty and also has her Essex family descending on her en masse.
