This series dealt with the lighter moments of very ordinary lives and celebrated how complex - and funny - even mundane lives can become. I have all nine series on DVD and have watched them numerous times; we never seem to tire of them. As a bonus, the character played by Palmer is struggling to become an established writer and all the frustrations that brings.
