From the creators of The Inbetweeners, and featuring two cast members from that hit show, White Gold is a downright enjoyable period comedy which hooked me from the beginning. The scripts are sharp and witty, translating to six tautly-edited episodes which constitute this first season, while the period detail looks spot-on. (It cannot be easy to recreate 1980s England on a TV budget.) It helps that all of the actors are appealing and easy to watch, even though James Buckley and Joe Thomas more or less reprise their roles from The Inbetweeners - but since they're so much fun to watch and this is a comedy first and foremost, it hardly matters. A Series 2 of the show was confirmed, but filming has been cancelled after allegations were made against Ed Westwick. All I can say is, I hope it's all sorted soon so I can enjoy another season of this brilliant comedy.
