I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

Not mind-blowingly so, but often funny, with a very likable main couple. Not derivative either. :)

I was lucky to have picked this up late and be able to watch the whole series in one foul swoop. One of the funniest and heart warming comedies I have seen in ages, absolutely brilliant.Some of the actors may not be that well known, but they certainly did a stand up job entertaining and making me laugh almost all the way through.The show has a serious side, but the comedy is definitely not forced. The families involved could only be described as different being nice and absolutely nutty being even nicer.If you have an open mind and want to be entertained definitely watch this show.I loved the show and really hope there is a second series.

I've not been majorly impressed with some of the sitcoms we've been given in recent times. Boy meets Girl has given us some genuine laughs, it's funny and truly entertaining, but there's also a story to it, it feels like it's doing more then just making laughs. The whole concept of a transgender age gap comedy is fairly brave for the BBC, normally we have to contend with a mummy, a daddy, a daughter and a son. Has even the BBC moved on at last? We see the meeting, dating and growing of the relationship between Judy and Leo, and the effects on both their families, each full of their own particular quirks. I've been so impressed with all aspects of this comedy, the cast are a delight and even at this early stage i'll say it, please order a second series. 10/10

It may be a "one - joke" comedy,but it's a better joke than most new TV comedies. Because the joke is on us - the audience who might consider transgender comedy finished being funny in "Some like it hot" and who think we are being liberal by laughing a drag queens but the deadly serious side of of being born into the wrong sex is not something we care to address. In "Boy meets Girl" the issue is thrust to the fore in a very disarming manner when a young man falls for an older woman who was once a young man herself. Both families deal with the issue by either pretending it doesn't exist outside a "Carry On" film or hoping it will go away. The programme benefits immeasurably from the presence of the mighty mesdames D.Welch and J.Duvitsky as the matriarchs.These are two of our finest comic actors and we are lucky to have them. Miss J.Root is beautiful and fragile yet strong as the girl and Mr D.Betts really rather sweet as the boy who meets her. This is an outstandingly written and performed show that could easily have toppled over into either crudity or bathos. That it does neither is a credit to all.
