I loved it!
You bunch of weirdos.
I didn't think it was particularly camp either, only the bits set in the present were. And the finish on the vase was great.
Where is Kylie now?!!
I must know!

I realy liked it! On top of Olivia being fab, Meera Syal was good too. In fact, they were all good! I liked his sister and her Heather Small hair!
Great. Am late with mad hair and can barely breathe in scary knickers. |

In the words of Eric Cartman I found this show to be 'lame'(in the voice of AWESOME-O).
Not particularly funny,overacted,smarmy and with the charm and wit sophistication of an alsatian after a headswap operation.

Maybe only girls and men who aren't intimidated by the GAYS like it.
(I'm just kidding, lads. Don't get your panties in a twist.)

Gimme Gimme Gimme, by the same writer, was great though.

Oh I didn't know that. I didn't mind Gimme Gimme Gimme, but I prefer this so far.

I thought this was poor. Olivia Colman did her best, but compared to similar "growing up in suburbia" things like the adaptation of Jonathan Coe's The Rotter's Club, it felt really weak. The "surreal" touches like the boxing ring appearing in the middle of the street when the two women were fighting really felt like padding. I can't think of a single memorable line from the dialogue. I won't be bothering with this again.

Can't agree with Griff more.
As you say Gimme, Gimme, Gimme pulled off camp comedy brilliantly. PC Goody from The Thin Blue Line. Waylon Smithers, Mark from Operation Good Guys, Mr Garrison.
All great gay characters, I don't think we can add 'Coming of Age' to that list.
