It's good, it's just a bit straight laced to be funny.

Peter earns a stash of tips as he takes a group of Japanese tourists to Hampton Court, Kayla battles her vegetarianism at the grill, Rita is left home, alone.

I did enjoy it, but I'd be more likely to class this as a tragedy rather then a comedy, every scenario prevented is either sad or a little on the tragic side. The comic relief has been coming from Lech, his fight scene was very funny, as was the chaotic escape, that was funny. There were a few touching scenes, the guy in the phone shop for example.

I'm glad we got Peter, it'll be interesting to see the dynamic and how they present the two on screen, they did a decent job here. 6/10

Hampton Court

Peter goes to Hampton Court with a coach load of Japanese tourists. Thanks to the Japanese speaking tour guide he gets lots of tips as the tourists have been told that giving paper money is seen as good luck.

Meanwhile his daughter Kayla is still all at sea with the real world and her job. I understand she is a teenager but Rita shows more gumption than her even though she is an illegal immigrant who cannot speak English.

Rita goes out alone to get her mobile phone fixed so she can contact her brother. Luckily she evades the bad guys who are still looking for her.

I do find Peter to be a bit of a wet blanket when the pressure is on and the heat is certainly on when Kayla rings him in a panic.

I just cannot view this series as a comedy, maybe a drama with a few laughs.
