Ballot Monkeys (2015– )

I cannot believe the above review. I think I might have woken the neighbours with the racket I made (I watched on 4od just now). There were so many good lines - & visual jokes - I couldn't keep up. It was absolutely priceless. Andy Hamilton is a bit of a genius. Admittedly the guffaw quotient dropped off, but that was probably a good thing (for my neighbours). It got slightly subtler but still with a lot of belly laughs. The cast were uniformly superb. They were caricatures, but no more than in the Thick Of It. There were desperate men (& women), people resigned to their fate, stupid people, devious people, nice people, weird people, all horribly trapped in a confined space. The writing was witty & the timing excellent. It was delicious.
