Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Its droll title aside, this ensemble comedy has the wan look of a Richard Curtis squib that never made it from the drawing-board. Set on a sunny afternoon in Hampstead Heath, it flits merrily through a suite of stories - actually, half-baked situations - that involve couples courting, arguing, breaking up, letting go, and generally talking in that arch tone that British screenwriters often mistake for wit.
The performers are good enough (Hugh Bonneville, Douglas Hodge, Gina McKee, Catherine Tate et al), but they've been given nothing funny or interesting to say.
