One dimensional and lazily scripted, this is the first Clunes vehicle that fails to capture the natural humour of the actor. Perhaps the lack of substantial supporting cast leaves Clunes without the necessary foil for his curmudgeonly character or perhaps it's just the unimaginative writing with jokes that fall flat. Clunes always makes you care about the characters but in this one, I not only didn't give a toss about him, I got bored.
