Stephanie Cole is the star of the show undoubtedly. I used to live in Brid so know the area well which made it quite enjoyable. It is a bit weak I thought, needs a bit more bite.
I was looking forward to it watched first episode and thought that better than second. Will keep going with it though as it’s my type of thing. Get sick of doom and gloom telly!
I forgot to watch the first epsode of Scarborough, so saw it through 'catch up'. I liked it, set it up to record, and yesterday, I watched the next two episodes, back to back. DH, pretended he was reading, but he had a little chuckle every now and again. I love the character Geraldine, but keep seeing her as Mavis!
As Kittylester says, they are gentle, and that's what I need right now.
I like it too. I think Geraldine, the beleaguered hairdresser dealing with stroppy clients and temperamental staff, is my favourite. We had a day out in Scarborough this summer - the first time I’d ever been there & really liked it.
I don’t watch much TV & only started watching this because I found out from a Facebook page that Geraldine’s premises is actually in Stockport, my home town. (It used to be Quayle’s, a haberdashers, on Underbank, for any Stopfordians, reading this. No idea what it is now!)
I love it too. I'm pleased to see that the beeb is continuing its gentle, observational comedies. I loved The Cafe, The Detectorists, Mum and this has a similar feel.
Yes keep forgetting it's on as we don't watch much BBC but caught up with it last night. I went to college in Scarborough when I was 16 and we often went into town before catching the train home to Bridlington so bringing back lots of memories. Just nice gentle humour.
Is anyone else watching this? A funny, touching inoffensive comedy in a great Northern tradition. Great to see Stephanie Cole again. Lots of strong quirky Northern women. Love the views of Scarborough, it's a place I love. We went there for holidays when I was little.
