A customer from Wigan, Lancs , 14/01/2005

Having just caught up with series 2, I felt I had to watch the first series.

This was certainly no let down, thoroughly enjoyed it. A must see for all who missed it.

Rated - 5 starsThe Best British TV Series In Years

MarkGreetham from Worcs , 01/04/2005

Firstly I have to admit that I didn't see this on Channel 4 - several colleagues have been banging on about this so I thought I'd give it a spin - for what ever reasons I didn't have high expectations.

Simply put this is the best TV series in years. The comedy is subtle and very dark (think Alan Bleasdale - but set in Manchester).

Unlike comedies like The Office that single characters out, every character in Shameless takes on a life of their own - and each performance is outstanding.

There is bad language and sexual references in nearly every episode - but that's just like life, and Shameless exploits these qualtities to the full.

Shameless shows how good british TV can be. Simply fantastic.

Rated - 5 starsClassic piece of Television Drama

MidnightCaller from Lancashire , 17/04/2005

Shameless - Series 1 Paul Abbott, the writer has created a master piece of television that is in the same category as Boy’s From the Black Stuff, it is a true portrayal of life today, in today’s society.

I am sure that it will be remembered in television history as a classic piece of drama.
