After Hours - Series 1

As this was flagged up on the front page of the BCG I thought I'd give it a whirl. The first episode was, well funny in parts - sometimes deliberately: "San Pelligrino - that's just posh Fanta for tossers!" Otherwise, the constant mentioning of milk every couple of minutes was somewhat bizarre. Was it sponsored by The Dairy Council?

The Central character was a dead ringer for Domnhall Gleeson.

Did you miss that his father's an unemployed milkman?

No, not at all. It was just very, well, obsessed with the bovine lactation fluid, in a weird and quite frankly, unamusing way.

Does anyone know in what town After Hours is supposed to be set in?
Thank you.

Filmed in Lymm, Cheshire according to IMDb. Apparently it's set in a fictional town in North Lincolnshire.

Tell me: did it improves as the series wore on?

The series was definitely set in North Lincolnshire as a character receives or writes a letter with an LN7 (Lincoln) postcode. Apparently it was filmed in Cheshire

I enjoyed the first series a lot. Okay it may not be a BAFTA winner, but I would be happy to see how the characters evolve, excellent cast I thought. Anyone have any news regarding a 2nd series?

Highly unlikely, I would have thought.
