The Lovers (2023–2024)
8/10
Very good little gem - however
27 September 2023
Warning: Spoilers
This was a very good little series and thoroughly enjoyable few hours

However, one rather large plot hole

In episode five Janet reveals that she served three years for Loyalist terrorism back in the day.

For this to have happened the aforementioned jail term would have been, at the very latest, in the mid nineties. Given that the series is set in the present day Janet would have been between four and eight when she was banged up for three years. Did the writers overlook the Good Friday Agreement?

A shame as, other than that, it was a very good comedy which shone a light on how life has very much changed for the better in Northern Ireland over the last three decades.
