Visionary original or specious whimsy? Either way, Will Sharpe's rustic black comedy - which he writes and directs, as well as playing Japanese naif Shun - is completely itself. We are two years on from the first season, and the brittle mental health of author Maurice (Julian Barratt) is threatened by his wife Deborah (Olivia Colman) writing a book about it. Those two, along with Harriet Walter, who joins the cast as a sexually magnetic priest, smother the thought that there's nothing coherent beneath all the wormwoody oddness. Nightly until Friday.
