What happened to the Rishi Sunak I knew at school?

The film wants to hit the usual romcom marks but both the rom and the com elements are stilted and underwhelming. It also takes no risks and there are no surprises beyond Mimi’s genius idea for making their bakery stand out by catering to a multicultural clientele, with the surprise being that no one points out that London is already full of places like that. Mimi, stick your head out the door. See Lisboa Patisserie, at 57 Goldborne Road? Does the best Portuguese tarts ever!

However, on the plus side, Imrie is always watchable, and the cakes do look scrumptious. Even if they’re never domed, and anyone could cough all over them. Tried to be kind. Failed. Sorry.
