TV review: Freedom

It didn't have many jokes and, written down, some of the ones it did perhaps don't sound clever. Here's Frank introducing his mate: "I call him Doug. Actually everybody calls him Doug. I think it's mainly because that's his name." But, while it might not be to everyone's taste, I did find Freedom funny - thanks, mostly, to Kay's appealingly slow, glaikit delivery which, somehow, becomes funnier even as he stretches out each line past the point where you've already guessed the gag.
