Him & Her

A very welcome new series for this still-life of a domestic sitcom which - if it didn't feel like damning with faint praise - could easily be described as the jewel in BBC3's crown. So little happens in an average episode of Him & Her that the format begins to seem almost audacious. Tonight, Becky has a hangover which, along with a visit from the ever-tiresome Laura and Paul and the usual looming presence of Dan, conspires to prevent Steve from presenting the wedding ring which he has hidden in the plastic bag cupboard. But despite this potentially rather significant development, the plotting feels happily beside the point - this is carried by the spot-on, naturalistic dialogue and likeable, intuitive performances from leads Russell Tovey and Sarah Solemani.

A third dose of Him & Her

What's interesting from the first episode is how much of the rest of the block you see, including a very awkward conversation between Steve and his neighbour, who we later see having a conversation with the lady downstairs about the state of Becky and Steve's flat.

Sarah Solemani lost British Comedy Award trophy

While Him and Her snatched the Best Comedy Performance gong at the Royal Television Society Awards, an insider revealed Sarah Solemani lost her trophy while celebrating.

As a bunch of writers who spend most of our time drooling in front of the telly, it should come as no surprise that we identify greatly with Russell Tovey and Sarah Solemani's slovenly lovers. For once, though, the crude couple may have something to get excited about, as Steve prepares to ask Becky for her hand in marriage. Now all he needs is the perfect moment to pop the question... shame Becky's currently nursing the world's worst hangover.

In doing so, a perturbed Becky unearths a secret about Steve's past - setting things up splendidly for the just-commissioned third series. Hurrah!
