On Netflix. Anyone seen it? I've just finished series 2. It's excellent. Brilliantly written, great characters. Love it.
Yes. Excellent show, though I've not watched the final series yet as reviews have been disappointing.
I'm guessing that no matter how disappointing the final series, it can't be remotely close to the circus that The Crown has descended into. The first 4 series we're absolutely tremendous. Managed about 3 episodes of the 5th and haven't returned since. According to all the reviews, series 6 is like a bad comedy.
My wife sent me out this morning to get some of those tablets that would give me an errection, I fetcher her some slimming tablets, I'm now looking for somewhere to stay a few nights.
What I find weird about it, is that it's supposed to be set in modern day but the decor and cars are all from the 80's
I think I gave up earlier. I enjoyed it in the beginning. It told the history with a touch of poetic license, which I was OK with. However, it then descended into blatant lies and sensationalism. One of the last episodes I saw covered the Aberfan disaster, which moved me and brought back memories of my childhood.
The producers/directors of the show are big fans of the classic 80s movies like the breakfast club so they deliberately gave it an 80s American high school feel despite it being set in 2020s England in homage to those classics
From Wikipedia: The setting of Sex Education appears to be modern-day Britain, in the fictional village of Moordale, with various elements that serve to place the show in an uncertain time and location. Modern technology, such as smartphones, exists, but the show features very few cars from after the 1990s, with most cars featured ranging from the 1970s to the 1990s. Police cars seen during the finale of series two appear to follow 1990s aesthetics rather than modern-day police cars. The show heavily features older technologies such as CRT televisions and dated household appliances. The décor of the Groffs' house is reminiscent of popular 1970s décor; Maeve's caravan is typical of the 1990s–2000s; and the Milburns' house is a more modern décor with a modern, "American-style" fridge. Moordale Secondary School shows some elements of UK secondary schools but also has a more American high school image. According to showrunner Laurie Nunn, the show's aesthetic is deliberate and an homage to the 1980s films of John Hughes.
Enjoyed it right up to the final series, I don't think they handled the characters aging very well at all
Well when I've finished Breaking Bad for the second time (absolutely brilliant ) I will give it a try.
