That's a lot of hype for something that turned out to be merely average.
The accents have been toned down a lot - presumably so that Americans can watch it without sub-titles :)
Last night's Wipers Times was better, I would happily watch a series of that.

I thought it was pretty good even though the accents had been tamed down and possibly the modern 'music' in places was a little intrusive but still very good...Wipers Times was also good but several people I've spoken to thought the little vignettes were confusing?...I suppose if you've seen some of the sketches in copies of the original WT them you might get them better.
Some of the hammer swinging in the background was a bit suspect though in PB!
