In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Worthless attempt at comedy don't waste your time on this dribble.

Loving this show. More surprisingly my wife also loves it so it's doing something right. It has a fantastic cameo in episode five and there is also a great pay off from episode four with a significant plot twist that in hindsight I should have seen coming. I really like the series as its a collection of flawed characters each jostling for their place in any entirely impossible environment. I honestly don't recognize the negative reviews? The show Wrecked never aired in the UK so cannot comment on which is the best desert island show, but its not a unique concept, Swiss Army Man, Cast Away, Lost all the way back to Robinson Crusoe. FWIW Marc Wootton also created a show called La La Land about people trying to make it in LA but add singing + love and the movie version is not called a copied concept. Brett is meant to be laughed at because of the tropes as much as the lines his delivers, he is not meant to be an actual representation of a realistic gay person anymore than Harriet a realistic head teacher, or Susan an actual religious person, they are funny fictional characters brought to life for our entertainment, and entertain me they did!

Such a shame that some of the reviews left for this show have been left by people who admit that they didn't even stay for first half of episode 1. As well as being devilishly funny, High and Dry rewards continued viewing as the characters develop and your take on them shifts as it might do in real life. This is a funny, intelligent and enjoyable show that deserves to be rewarded with a 2nd series Brett Sullivan should be up there with David Brent, Jill Tyrell and Basil Fawlty if TV comedy history gets it right.

Made me laugh so hard, a cross between Benidorm and Lost with a bit of your being served chucked in for good measure. We need more of this channel 4. Marc Wootton is a comedy genius.
