This sitcom set in a social services department feels caught - within the wobbly-camera workplace comedy genre - between the deadpan of The Office[ and the grotesquerie of The Thick of It. It is carried by a fine cast, whose characters' lives are scarcely less chaotic than those of their clientele.

It is an awkward start to the day when Rose and Dennis wake up in bed in Denise's house, while Nat is trying to land a birth partner with the offer of free crisps and water. Al gets lumbered with Mimi when he visits an ex-client who has been skipping classes, Rose turns up at the office to find Martin has dispatched Nitin to deal with a pair of drug-addicted clients and Zak makes an unwelcome return with wife Sophie, who is horrified when the true nature of his problems are revealed.
