Incredibly funny.

Jessica's attorney Ronald Mallu is determined to find good character references for her among the family, but he discovers a few problems when be starts to talk to The Tate's and Campbells.
Any criticisms I've made previously, forget them, this was side splitting, one of the funniest episodes from the first series.
Burt is side splitting here, his powers of invisibility make for some wonderful scenes, but the standout moment is of course that scene where Mallu starts chatting with the family members, it is belly laugh out loud funny. Burt and Mary's counselling session is also a side splitting scene.
Another sweet scene between Jessica and Corrine, it's a gorgeous, sincere scene.
Eugene Roche is a scream, a brilliant performance, the looks of sheer bewilderment are something else.
This one's a riot from the start, a few times you can see the cast holding back the laughs.
9/10.
