Unique, original, downright funny comedy.

Outnumbered is surely one of the best Britcoms of the last few years, it's truly original, funny, and wonderfully true to life. We see The Brockman family literally grow up, the kids, who are undoubtedly the stars of the show each provide constant laughs, I understand that lots of the lines, particularly from the earlier years were off the cuff, the kids, together with the wonderful Hugh Dennis and Claire Skinner were allowed to be natural, it's that partial lack of scripting that makes the show so funny, most shows are so well polished and so precise, this brand of humour was truly refreshing. The show seemed so real, so relevant, everyday life occurences, small tribulations, but wasn't afraid to talk about things like weight issues, bullying, morals, but in a way that didn't preach to its audience. A much loved show.

score 9/10
