3.0 out of 5 stars Between the Sheets, March 29, 2010

This review is from: Between the Sheets (Complete Series 1) [Region 2] (DVD)

The series looks at several couples at different points in their relationships. An older couple (married over 25 years), a couple together/not married for less than 10, and a couple still dating. They are connected via family ties or through a sex therapist (but she is one of the couples too). The topics are sexual in nature and deal with miscommunication in the bedroom and out of it, infidelity, and forgiveness. It was suprising to see British actors you generally see in period/costume dramas in their PJs or nothing at all. The series is over 7 years old, but I don't think it is too dated relative to the clothes, cars, and settings. I thought it gave some insight into sex therapy.
