...in an era where many dramas move at a glacial pace, 'Brassic' earns its bingeworthiness on momentum alone.

...the funniest show you're not watching.

Despite its small-town Lancashire setting of hardscrabble pubs, lock-ups and secret wartime bunkers repurposed as marijuana farms, there has always been a touch of the surreal to Brassic.

...any doubts fans may have had that the show would come over all gooey and sentimental for the festive season are quickly dispelled by the opening scene.
