Based on the writing the target audience looked to be teenagers - so surprised to find this on BBC1 rather than BBC3.
The basic premise had a lot of scope for laughs but the show didn't quite know whether it wanted to be a drama or a comedy and fell flat somewhere in the middle. It wasn't sitcom LOL funny or straight drama dramatic. There was a lot of effing and blinding that felt out of place in what would have worked best as a daft comedy for a younger audience.
Cast did their best and were fine but storyline and lack of laughs in the script let it down. Be surprised if it finds an audience.
