This started as a lovely quirky comedy about a couple 'trying' to become parents. The first three series were generally filled with a good mix of belly laughs and an occasional tear. Light, fun, moving in equal parts. But the fourth series is almost unwatchable. Trying far too hard to be funny. Developing stories for characters that lack any warmth or connection to the viewer. For a series that was meant to be about the struggles of parenthood, there is not a great deal of struggling. It seems the best 6 years have been missed out of the parenting loop... and belly laughs have turned to embarrassing groans. What a shame... trying too hard!
