Allison Keene · Paste Magazine 89.00/100.00

It’s all of the little moments with these characters that really make these stories come alive, like how John is always wincing weakly through scenes, as Gillian frets over money one minute and can’t help but have her head turned by a hot young builder in the next. Sarah Lancashire is again extraordinary as Caroline.

Best Brit drama I've ever seen...love it! Characters are so real; tremendous acting!

Dorothy Rabinowitz · Wall Street Journal 80.00/100.00

It seems impossible to say enough for the unfailing wit and nuance of Sally Wainwright's script, or for the skill that shaped this mix of family melodrama and romantic comedy into the marvelous brew it is.
