TV: Cradle to Grave, BBC2

Cradle to Grave certainly doesn’t hang about. It’s the second episode and we are already doing that well-trodden comedy trope, the holiday away from home. Except on this occasion it’s only a quick caravan break and barely takes up more than one scene.

One of the great things about this sitcom based on Danny Baker’s autobiography focussing on his 1970s childhood is that it rattles from incident to incident at breakneck speed. The script is stripped to the bone. There isn’t a line or a set-up that doesn’t lead to a pay-off.
