A rather pleasing and unusual premise of two store workers sharing a car to and from their place of work. And I would say roughly 80% of each episode follows this idea, with only a handful of exterior locations (store carpark, Kayleigh's home and one or two other places) that occupy the remainder of each episode. To be honest I didn't think this premise would work, especially over an entire season (well two seasons, plus two specials). But because the writing is so good, along with such a charismatic couple (Kaye & Sian Gibson), and a marvellous collection of pop records it really does make for a satisfactory 27 minutes worth of light comedy and just a touch of melodrama as we wonder if the two will eventually get over their two seasons worth of awkwardness and finally end up together!
