I did not think Upright was good enough for a second series. I did not think that another series was even required.
Here it is, this time events have moved on four years.
Lucky Flynn (Tim Minchin) is a minor celebrity. He is gigging as a musician, he has an actress girlfriend. He is still prone to fly off the handle.
A radio interview does not go well, he attacks a paparazzi who is bothering him.
In comes Meg Adams (Milly Alcock) after four years with a proposition.
She wants Lucky to take her to North Queensland to find her mother.
A chaotic beginning only took shape when Meg turns up. It just means there is more chemistry between Lucky and Meg than he has with his girlfriend.
