The Couple Next Door (C4)

[Leothebear]

This started promisingly. Two young couples become friends and dark things emerge as their relationships intertwine.
As the series progresses, however with several unlikely sub plots, the whole thing loses credibility. Great performance from Hugh Dennis, who plays a very creepy pervert all too convincingly. The acting itself was good, but the storyline lets it down and the ending is all to chaotic for me.

Thanks for the review, I saw the first ep and thought it looked interesting but couldn't help thinking that a whole show had been spent rather laboriously setting the scene and hinting at things to come and might, as I cynically expect, be a bit of a let down. Not fulfil the hype. I may or may not pick up a few more episodes but will go in forewarned.
