Loved series 1. Series 2 comes along and it's good in parts, however I feel they've gone all out for mostly sexual humour-focussed storylines at the expense of some of the more subtle comedy, which I personally liked and now miss. I still enjoy it though, just feel they've taken the modern/easy route and gone for more of a lowest common denominator appeal.

I do like a comedy, or indeed a drama, where the stories are built around the setting - the JobCentre as a workplace in this instance. Sure, you need some of the humour to revolve around the human interaction and relationships between staff members, but I'd love more intriguing plot devices about the customers and their personal circumstances. Maybe catch the audience out occasionally with a poignant moment or two. Just an observation.
