Superbly dark and bizarre.
This is peepshow meet Tamara Drew with a splash of Cohen brother andTime Burton to boot. A grand cast of bizarre characters all spiralingout of control in a grim situation comedy. Julian Barrett is on topform and the interactions are subtle and don't pander to archetypesinstead allowing itself to be a little obscure. Between the suicidalchildren's book writer, the neurotic trombone instructor, the art hourpsychopathic sister and the inventor wannabe brother; there is enoughin the just the flowers family alone for a great shower never mind theauxiliary characters that also seem to have had the same level of careput into them.This screams cult classic even if the general British public don't adopt it right away, it will find a veryloving home with film/TV/comedy fans everywhere much like "Nightynight" or "Monkeydust".score 10/10
