YO U SAY


Timothée Chalamet (BBC1, 11.45pm)

What on earth has happened to Not Going Out
(BBC1), which used to be entertaining and often
very funny? The latest series is just dire and a
complete waste of Sally Bretton’s talent.
John Peacock

I have to say that the episode last Friday was the
worst and most unfunny I’ve ever seen. The plot
was weak and I challenge anyone to find it funny.
Chris Dell
