Berry&apos;s Way

When I saw the trailer for this series I thought: &apos;Here we go, another &apos;light comedy&apos; series from the BBC with Lenny Henry&apos;. I remembered &apos;Chef&apos;, which never captured me. I might have been guilty of the business of writing off someone who still has something to offer. In a complete turnaround I have to say that I enjoyed this first episode.Lenny Henry is a very believable character here. I never once thought of Tiswaz, Trevor McDoughnut, OOOOOKAAAYYYY, or the Lenny Henry Show(these were good). As a co-writer he appears to done a good job and Iappreciated the ability to refrain from being &apos;too bloody clever&apos; or embracing Will Self&apos;s world of decadent young adults as is the addiction today. If you watch Berry&apos;s Way don&apos;t expect to be laughing out loud every second. It&apos;s comedy drama in the best BBC tradition. It would have died on BBC2, so the powers-that-be wisely placed it on the first channel. It deserves it audience.
