Kathy Burke’s love letter to the 1970s is chock full of random delights, not least its surreal casting. But it’s Ami Metcalf as Burke’s younger self Kath and Aimee-Ffion Edwards as her best mate Mary who carry the show – superbly.
This week, flat-capped Kath has a run-in with Teds while listening to some ska on her tape machine, and Mary has to explain to Kath what a love bite is. An absolute joy, utterly undeserving of its tumbleweed time-slot.
