| hmm didn't see it but the radiotimes review seems good:
As far as I know, there has never been a sitcom set in a suburban brothel, possibly with good reason. It sounds like a recipe for disaster, or at least for low farce. But where Five's first attempt at a home-grown sitcom, Suburban Shootout, sank under the weight of its own high concept (housewives with guns), this looks a far better prospect. Beatrice Kelley plays Maureen, a madam whose girls gossip and tease one another like any other bunch of work mates, except that their work is mating, so to speak. Justin Edwards does a brilliant job as Michael, the uptight, middle-class husband who seeks solace with the dimmest of the working girls, Hayley, played by Jodi Albert from Hollyoaks. You have to love any comedy where a character's dreary existence is established by his fondness for Judge John Deed. And there are any number of lovely touches in the writing. At this rate, Respectable could be turning tricks for some time. |
