Three girls, with a sketch show, well I suppose it makes a change to have a female perspective on this sort of show.
The girls have a few interesting ideas and perform them well. What is lacking, is the belly laugh! I did find myself smiling a lot, occasionally a gentle snigger was forthcoming, but wholehearted laughter? I'm afraid not!
There was obviously a running gag going through the show as each of the ladies came forward and did a 'sell' several times. Maybe it was just me, but this was never obvious as to where this was going, and it was never explained to those of us who never clicked.
I don't know if it was self written material, but I would have liked to see them with better writing to showcase their obvious comic talent. With the right material these girls could go far.
