TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Patience Watson One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

Jemima It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

mikelingard A good show. Well worth viewing.I did spot one small error. In the first two episodes the embassy cars Union flag, when shown, was upside down.This is in fact an international symbol of distress. A very minor detail but worth mentioning. And assuredly did not spoil a very good program.M. Lingard

jimclarke-3 I cannot understand the odd really rubbishing reviews that have appeared here and there of Ambassadors ; almost as if there is a hidden agenda. There are so many 10 star reviews, of which I agree, that to give 1 star is really perverse. For myself (and my wife) we found Ambassadors the wittiest, most original production we have seen for a long time. It was interesting to read a former member of the British Diplomatic Service stating how near reality it was; I suspected that it was and it was good to have this underlined. Both Mitchell and Webb were superb here; I have not always been a fan of their skit shows, but this was clever comic acting at its best. I would love to see a further series, but if that is not forthcoming then another Mitchell and Webb production using this characterful and entertaining format would be a winner.

simon-852-379754 I have never been tempted to write a review before, but was roused into action when I heard that this series only had three episodes and there are no plans for any more.I think this is the best comedy I have seen since Episodes. There were many times when I laughed out loud. Each week my girlfriend and I eagerly looked forward to the next installmentThis was intelligently written and very funny. It centres around the ambassador and his right-hand man, the ambassador's wife and a small group of staff at embassy. It comes across a quintessentially British bumbling around in a foreign country trying to grasp a strange culture. As someone well travelled, I would normally hate that approach but credit to the excellent writing. This kept me entertained with mild plots and lots of laugher.I will be recommending this to all my friends especially ex-pats that are always looking for gems of British TV and British comedy.

BritTVlists Ambassadors is set in the fictional country of Tazbekistan,with Mitchell playing British ambassador Keith Davis and Webb his trusty aid. It is divided into three,one hour long episodes. I would class this as comedy/satire and found it very well acted(great cast) and highly enjoyable as you watch the British move from one disaster to the next while at the same time struggling with there new place in the world order! This is a show with many references to British culture but this is not vital to the plot and I would highly recommend it to people from any nation.Finally I must reiterate that Tazbekistan is not a real country,so NSA if you are reading this there is no point trying to bug them or there leaders......my telephone seems to be clicking so I better go!(quiet voice) Lets hope for a second series.
