This was just excellent. There were tens of classic comedy moments, from Arthur's turn as Ripper tour guide, impersonating a doctor, reading his lines accidentally in a radio play, his "little" show, "I'm afraid!", his Ouija board, and of course, the Memory Man act.
Some people, naming no names, who listened to the radio show and liked it are always going to be prejudiced because they have expectations - I would if they made Cabin Pressure into a TV show and changed the actors. People who didn't like the radio show, are always going to be prejudiced, and just why the hell are you watching the TV show anyway? But - I have never seen heard the radio show and I don't want to, and I think it is some of television's finest comedy, in the ilk of Fawlty Towers and Graham Linehan's past work.
Some people may not understand British humour, they may not think there is room for old people in comedy. I'm fine with that. But why are you reviewing this? This is outside your area of comfort, I'm afraaaaiiiiddd.
P.S. One of these reviews is obviously written by a literary professor - Munchausian? And he also hates twitter, for some reason.
score 9/10
