What BollyAI Thinks
Series 2 aired in February-March 2020 and earned 78% on Rotten Tomatoes. Critics noted an improvement in the show's confidence - the Walker-Mangan central dynamic had deepened into something more complex and less polished than the debut season's surface-sheen. The Telegraph praised both leads for their 'understated comedy and emotional truth'. The Wall Street Journal, after initial reservations, noted the show found 'its footing as powerful drama' once its wandering subplots resolved. The family firm subplot - with Fiona Button and Annabel Scholey as Hannah's sisters - generated the most praised ensemble scenes of the series, and Deborah Findlay as matriarch Ruth provided the emotional backbone that held the family dynamics together.

“Walker and Mangan are still great at understated comedy and digging out emotional truths.”
