I hadn't read the advanced publicity so the twist in how he tries to hang on to his house came as a surprise - an entertaining one though.
A few 'laugh out loud' moments but mainly a good slow burning comedy/drama. 2 good hard punches on the nose for 'rats' added to the entertainment value.
Knowingly or otherwise, the writers seem to have taken from Alun Davies/Jonathan Creek characters to build a persona that I liked and believed in.
When it ended, I wondered whether it was the first of a series or a one off. A series I hope as there seem to be enough loose ends to make one viable.
