Carol Midgley The Times (UK) 11/20/2017
3/5
In a lesser writer's hands all this might have felt too slushy and cluttered to take seriously, but Kay Mellor's new drama, set in a register office in Leeds, skipped along with a lightness of touch belying how much was being packed in. Go to Full Review
Isabel Mohan Daily Telegraph (UK) 11/20/2017
4/5
[Kate's] dramas are basically the televisual equivalent of a deliciously trashy real-life magazine with multiple far-fetched headlines that somehow suck you in. And I definitely mean that as a compliment. Go to Full Review
Dorothy Rabinowitz Wall Street Journal 11/20/2017
It's remarkable that a story line with so much potential for a deadly flow of treacle should emerge with such power. Go to Full Review

A grand idea, roundly realised. Go to Full Review

3/5
Kate, in truth, is a little bit too box-tickingly good to be true. But [Ashley] Jensen is delightfully watchable, and the eventful doings of the city hall are a refreshing novelty for prime time. Go to Full Review
Melanie Blake Daily Mirror (UK) 11/20/2017
This first show packed a real punch and had it all - warmth, humour and emotional tension. The hour flew by and I'm already desperate to know what's going to happen this week. I think it's safe to say Kay has another hit on her talented hands. Go to Full Review

05/19/2018 Just too much going on. It makes me consider it as a sort of soap opera on speed. I like Ashley Jensen but not in this mishmash that is supposed to tug at your heartstrings but just makes you shake your head as you mutter, "Really/" See more 12/23/2017 lifeless, far fetched, ridiculous and clearly written by the BBC thought police propaganda team See more Read all reviews
