Not sure that such a serious situation for the government and his family should be treated so lightly. To be fair, I've only seen the first part of the first episode but it already seems that the husband and wife team of McFadden and Hawes are playing for laughs in a Whitehall Farce. More substance and gravitas may emerge but it's really going to be difficult to take these characters, or perhaps I should say, caricatures, seriously.
On the plus side, it is rather refreshing to see the ITV station ridiculing the Labour movement rather than the usual BBC barrage against the Conservatives.
Lighthearted humbug.
