What people are saying
Updated nightlyPeople are really into this one, a funny and original story about a brother and sister defending their Orkney island from an awkward council worker trying to evict them. The humor lands perfectly, and the cast, especially Gayle Rankin and Michelle Gomez, is fantastic. A few people thought the pacing dragged a bit, but overwhelmingly, it's a hit.
