Can a brief appearance from Richard Osman lighten the mood?

With many a debacle as usual, can a brief appearance from Richard Osman lighten the mood? Starring Richard Herring. From 2020.

Holly and Jane are both back at home, as Pete and Jane try to work things out. 

Ian and Chloe have made it up, Ken and Margaret are relieved to have their house back. So celebrations for Holly’s 18th birthday look set to go swimmingly- until the vegan cake debacle. 

Even a brief appearance by Richard Osman can’t lighten the mood.

The third series of Richard Herring’s comedy drama builds on the warm, lively characters and sharply observed family dynamics of previous series.

His affectionate observation of inter-generational misunderstanding, sibling sparring and the ties that bind will resonate with anyone who has ever gone back to live at home, after the age of 40.

Richard Herring is a comedian, writer, blogger and podcaster.
