Summary: Fans of Steve Coogan wanting an instant hit of his genius will have to be a little more patient with Saxondale. Once you've viewed a few episodes the quality of this series comes through. Saxondale is something quite different in the comedy world at the moment. Its comedy is mixed into the day to day life of the very realistic character of 'Tommy'(Coogan), and his daily grind at work. I'm also happy to report that series 2 so far has been brilliant. All in all a must for fans of Coogan, but also worth a try if you want a comedy that is not just laugh out loud funny at times, but thought provoking and intelligent.
Enjoy...
