This is the best British comedy I've seen since Coupling. The dad's obsession with snails mating perfectly parodies the British stereotype. The improbable ways Tom winds up making the right romantic gesture are hilarious.
shareDoes anyone know the location of the country house they visited in episode 4? I imagine the cave/lake combo is actually a mash-up of two different places, though it'd be good if it was all one. It does look a great place to visit. In the episode they called it the Fossett Estate, but that isn't its name in real life.
shareIt's Painshill Park near Cobham, Surrey --> http://www.painshill.co.uk/about-painshill/follies-and-features/
Though I agree that it's often the case that multiple locations are used, it looks like everything was filmed at Painshill in this instance.
Thank you so much, Gordon. I'm surprised, but very pleased to see that the crystal grotto really exists. Again, thank you.
shareI really don't agree with you. Even Fried was better than this.
