Mister Winner (BBC2)

    Watched all 6 episodes of the 1st series of this over the last few days and it's a really sweet, good-natured comedy.

    Essentially Spencer Jones playing a modern day Frank Spencer / Mr Bean character - a bumbling good natured nice guy who gets into all sorts of scrapes.

    Good supporting cast - particularly Shaun Williamson - but Jones is the star. And it's very well written by Matt Morgan (who Russell Brand podcast fans will be all too familiar with).

    PS - between this and the "Alma's Not Normal" pilot on last night on BBC2, there's some great comedy output there at the minute.

    I've seen a few episodes and enjoyed it a lot too. Spencer Jones is great as the lead.

    The piano episode was brilliant, quite an old fashioned sitcom in some ways but very entertaining.

    I watched this over the summer and enjoyed it.
    I know it’s not important in the grand scheme of things but I wanted to let you know that Mr Winner is not going to have a second series. I had a lovely time making and want to thank Matt Morgan for writing it for me and the BBC for having me in it. Thanks for watching x.
