A little review for this ep from Paul Whitelaw at the Radio Times:

Joe Gilgun’s (very) loosely autobiographical small-town Lancashire comedy-drama has been a big hit for Sky, and deservedly so. It’s sweetly crude and witty, and a heartfelt endeavour reminiscent of Gilgun collaborator Shane Meadows at his warmest. As series four begins, we reconvene with heartbroken lovable “loser” Vinnie (Gilgun) who’s desperate to hear from estranged ex Erin (Michelle Keegan) and his son. Gilgun is a natural tragicomic clown, his lugubriously expressive face conveying a multitude of emotions in the crushed blink of an eye. It’s a delightfully subtle performance and as always, writer Danny Brocklehurst lets the story’s pathos speak for itself.

Didn't really enjoy this at all, no laugh out loud moment for me.

Its gone from the brilliance of season one, with it being mostly about "the lads" to Vinnie moaning on about Erin and Tyler. How much he loves and misses his "boy" - you know, the one he tended to ignore until he found out he was his son? Talking of which, Tyler is now totally ignoring Dylan, the man who brought him up for years.

The bad language is more extreme.
I watched the first two series with my daughter and grandson - I would feel too uncomfortable to do that with this season going by episode one.
To be honest, if Damien wasn't in it, I would be very unlikely to watch episode two! Talking of which, Damien barely got to say more than a sentence or two.

I'll watch the next episode solely because Damien is part of the cast but to be honest if it doesn't improve (or Dylan doesn't get a bigger role) then I probably won't bother watching any more.
