Colin from Accounts — Season 2

The second series of Colin from Accounts has arguably got better. After all the "will they, won't they?" of the first season, Sydney-ites Ashley and Gordon are now an established item – and that's where the angst really kicks in.

The joy of this show is how exquisitely true-to-life it is in dissecting the trials and tribulations of a relationship, from negotiating your other half's family to feelings of sexual rejection, with situations that feel only mildly exaggerated for humorous effect.

Plus, alongside the both charming and sometimes poignant performances of real-life couple Harriet Dyer and Patrick Brammall, the supporting cast of characters is inspired, among them Helen Thomson as Lynelle, Ashley's brilliantly self-involved mother, who has become a kind of anti- #MeToo activist to Genevieve Hegney as Chiara, Gordon's mid-life-crisis-beset business partner.

And, of course, Zak and Buster Feddersen as the titular Colin, the stoic border terrier on wheels who acts as the show’s weary, all-seeing witness. Give them an Emmy – or a chewbone – forthwith.
