BOY MEETS GIRL
IF YOU can cope with the fact that the central idea is completely barmy (and come on, there’s no crime in that), then you should find this new Friday night comedy-drama series a whole lot of fun.
Owing to a freak accident involving a thunder storm and an electricity pylon, the two main characters – Martin Freeman’s Danny and Rachael Stirling’s Veronica – wake to discover they’ve somehow swapped bodies, triggering all manner of distress, chaos, confusion etc.
There are plenty of familiar faces popping up in the cast, including Angela Griffin and Marshall Lancaster (Ashes To Ashes) as Danny’s DIY store colleagues, plus Paterson Joseph (Survivors) and James Lance (Moving Wallpaper) as fashion journalist Veronica’s boyfriend and lover respectively.
