Has anyone watched this show?

I've almost done myself in choking on my coffee watching this. They are sooo funny. Of course, it's because they're so like my extended family that if you just change the names of some of the characters, you've got mine. But....

Yeah it’s a really good show but also really puts into perspective what it was like living in NI not that long ago!

My fiancé and I blew through both series in a few days. We watched the first one in one sitting, then had to restrict ourselves to 2 episodes a night once we realised how many we had left. Absolutely adore the show. I think it does such a nice job of weaving the politics and reality of NI at the time with the storyline. Gutted we've finished it already.
