Written by Phil Medley and Craig Cash of the Royle family. Early Doors is very much in the same vein a look at drool northern humour this time in a pub as opposed to the front room. The main difference being Royle Family was never this good. The pub setting gives a wider scope for different character's each with there own individual trait.
Having spent time in pubs in Manchester it's not hard to see we're the writers got there material from. It always amazed me how few people ever watched this show. I have this on DVD and every one I lend it to binge watches the whole series then lend it someone else and I eventually get it back six months later!
The whole cast are wonderful including a young James Mcavoy in season one. It's no surprise that the cast have all gone on to do quality work in other shows. In particular James Quin And Peter Wight who play Phil and Nige the two hapless coppers who could quite frankly have a TV show themselves such is there comedy chemistry. 10/10 pure comedy gold.
