Crashing

Has anyone watched Crashing? It's a British comedy - 6 eps, and looks fun. It has a mix of good and bad reviews (mostly excellent ones on IMDb, I have to say), but I followed the Sam/Fred storyline on You Tube and I'm hooked! I hope they make more, and that it's as good!

Here's the trailer, for those who want to know more:



It's written by the woman who plays Lulu (long dark hair in video), and the premise is about a bunch of 20/30-somethings who are 'guardians' of a building to be demolished (a hospital in London) so they live in it for cheap until demo time, and they're all crashing into something as well as 'crashing' at the hospital.

Sam is very cute (the guy who played reporter Olly in Broadchurch shows off his comedy chops!!!), and his struggle with his feelings for his friend Fred are very amusing, as are all the happenings (even the slightly icky things) with the others. And you can follow the Sam/Fred story from here in six parts at YT, should that be enough for you. ;-)

Sounds like a lot of fun! I need to find this now. :)

I hope you can find it; it does look good, and the Sam/Fred (plus Fred/Will) set of YT videos were pretty good! ;-)

Thanks! No luck yet, but I'll keep looking. :D Maybe they'll bring it to BBC America.
