Is Motherland like ED?

[Bob Buzzard]

I know Motherland is set in North London, but doesn't it appear to be similar to what happens in ED? Julia's front arrangement is quite similar to my double fronted five-bedder on MG.

Sooo funny that programme

I watched the first one, and found it amusing.

The second one followed a hard hitting documentary about young poorly educated males in Hull, and their views about politics and leaving Europe. BBC a little out of it's comfort zone. Then onto the second episode of Motherland (back into it's middle class intellectual comfort zone) and I realised what shallow cliched crap it was. Perhaps that is also East Dulwich for you too.

Discuss.

In defence it is not written by Ben Elton (thank God) and doesn't have David Mitchell in either.
