CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
mikelingard A good show. Well worth viewing.I did spot one small error. In the first two episodes the embassy cars Union flag, when shown, was upside down.This is in fact an international symbol of distress. A very minor detail but worth mentioning. And assuredly did not spoil a very good program.M. Lingard
Michael Radny I knew what I was going to get with Ambassadors, some great Mitchell and Webb moments, but unfortunately they didn't come as often as I would have liked. Having previously not heard of the mini-series I had a suspicion that there was a reason for that. Whilst enjoyable and definitely watchable, it just lacks the chemistry of which Peep Show and the Mitchell and Webb Look possessed so much of.For die hard Mitchell and Webb viewers, this T.V. show will offer some good times, but I would't be bragging about it to anyone else. Whilst the comedy is still slightly visible in this snowy show, there just isn't enough of it over the babbling of words we don't care about.
simon-852-379754 I have never been tempted to write a review before, but was roused into action when I heard that this series only had three episodes and there are no plans for any more.I think this is the best comedy I have seen since Episodes. There were many times when I laughed out loud. Each week my girlfriend and I eagerly looked forward to the next installmentThis was intelligently written and very funny. It centres around the ambassador and his right-hand man, the ambassador's wife and a small group of staff at embassy. It comes across a quintessentially British bumbling around in a foreign country trying to grasp a strange culture. As someone well travelled, I would normally hate that approach but credit to the excellent writing. This kept me entertained with mild plots and lots of laugher.I will be recommending this to all my friends especially ex-pats that are always looking for gems of British TV and British comedy.
journalist1 Yet another typical wishy washy BBC fiasco dolled up as entertainment. You just know its a BBC product when they disparage the royal family and mention the Guardian within the first three minutes of the show. Regarding the royal family, I am sure over at the BBC they think that somehow its 'edgy' and 'real' to knock the head of state's family and that may have been so TWENTY years ago, however, today it just looks dated and another BBC attempt to talk down the country who's people pay their over- priced bills. The comedy fails on every level, the actors seem to have no love for the series or their parts and boy does it show, the viewer gets the strong impression the cast have no faith in what they are doing while the expression on their faces is one of abject misery, they just don't seem to want to be there, that they the cast all have better things to do , that they deserve FAR better parts but for some reason no-one else recognises their incredible comedic qualities, the dialogue is stilted, weak and forced, as for the writing, it is so unfunny as to beggar description. Look, this is meant to be a COMEDY yet there is absolutely NOTHING funny about the show whatsoever unless you are a left-wing Guardian- reading Labour voter of 20 years ago and even then that's a real maybe.The problem with BBC comedy these days is that they are so busy ticking all the politically-correct boxes they fail to realise that any humour a show did have has long since disappeared.If viewers want to see REAL comedy check out VEEP as an example of what is funny because Ambassadors isn't nothing of the sort and the fact that the BBC keeps trying to sell us the licence-fee payer counterfeit goods reflects that unless they really up their game their day is done.
