Good story, Not enough for a whole film

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

I love this show. It combines witty dialogue, silly puns & exaggerations in a socially awkward but lovable half hour. Sue Perkins is a fantastic comedian & writer, and the varying humour makes for an entertaining watch. It's not fair to compare it to existing TV programs, because while there is probably influence from fellow comedians and shows; it's entirely different. I found it refreshing to watch a show with a gay character that wasn't over sexualised or stereotypical...OK, maybe still stereotypical but more relatable & awkward. This show finds an amusing path to challenge stereotypes and makes for a good show. If you're looking for wit, humour, and something a little different; give it a go. It definitely grows. And the variation in humour keeps the entertainment coming. Really hoping for another season, lots of keen viewers over in Australia.

Heading Out is as charming as you'd expect from a comedy starring Sue Perkins. The supporting cast is really hilarious and so likable. I actually love all the characters on this show! They are played perfectly; subtly over-the-top...which may be just a standard British comedy thing that generally appeals to me but I have to note that the actors' take on the womens' characters are especially fresh to me. Not to mention the guest-stars alone make this show worth watching. You can tell that the cast are having so much fun and it sucks you in. It's pitch perfect for a light comedy yet still irreverent enough to keep it interesting. So many great shows on TV these days are unyieldingly dark and shocking in it's humour. It's nice to have a bit of respite from all the over-sexed or psychotic characters on TV delivering one-liners from a pool of blood which has sort of become the expectation from good TV these days. Aside from all of that Heading Out also happens to be really, really funny. I hope to see another season...even if it's just free on Youtube....(sorry!)

Sadly, thanks to years of being jaded by some appalling lowest common denominator sitcoms on the BBC, people are bound to have preconceptions about any new comedy programme and it is all too easy to dismiss a show like Heading Out and almost expect to be disappointed.Unfortunately, this may cause viewers braced to be let down, to judge it too early and too harshly because it didn't have them howling with laughter immediately.The main thing this show has going for it, is Sue Perkins' likability. This is certainly not a groundbreaking show or armed with one hilarious joke after another. What it is light comedy that would perhaps be better suited to an afternoon slot, (possibly in place of endless repeats of repeats). It is possible to enjoy Heading Out, if it is watched with an open mind and enjoyed for what it is, rather than what it isn't.

Perkins gets the TV sitcom nod and wink, no questions asked, from the increasingly cronyistic BBC. Straight to BBC2 with no pilot, so she's certainly settled in well in the secluded labyrinths of Broadcasting House.That's not to say the lady doesn't have some comic talent or that she would be doomed to write a turkey. The likelihood that she'd create something half decent was quite strong in fact, with her respected wit and intelligence. But two episodes in and we are questioning whether we've over praised her in calling her the female Stephen Fry so soon.Bits of this sitcom have had some flashes of intelligent humour but way too much has been unoriginal to say the least. She's opted for a modern off centre comedy style referencing films and pop culture in the style of Spaced but it's so close to it that it looks more like plagiarism than influence.The narrative has been butchered seemingly in favour of making the scenes stand out, but of course this rarely works unless you're the Cohen Bros. and even then makes the narrative a very bumpy ride. Sorry, I can't say much good about this sitcom yet, but we do have four episodes left to watch. I fear they've already been written though and it's too late to save the amiable Ms Perkins' sitcom writing career.PS The sitcom opened with a long scene starring a dead cat! Look no further than this for an omen of its future.
