BSG Review:	The first series of this sitcom was scheduled to appear on prime-time BBC1; it didn't stand a chance. It collected a critical mauling - whilst it wasn't a great show the reaction was probably a little harsh. "Wild West" had some very black humour and dark characters so was never meant to appeal to the masses - it's definitely one of those you either love or hate. If you take time to watch a few episodes from series 2 you might find you actually start liking this sitcom and the characters within in (especially PC Alan), we certainly did.
Notes:	The village of St Gweep is actually the real village of Portloe in Cornwall where most of this sitcom was filmed.
