Whites is a British television sitcom that aired on BBC Two back in 2010. The show revolves around the life of Roland White, a fictional head chef of a small country hotel, called Whites. The main protagonist of the series is portrayed by Alan Davies, who brings his unique style of comedy to the table. Davis is best known for his roles in the long-running mystery series, Jonathan Creek, as well as for his appearances on several other British comedy shows.

The cast of Whites also features an ensemble of talented actors, including Darren Boyd as Bib, Roland's sous chef, Isy Suttie as Kiki, the pastry chef, Katherine Parkinson as Caroline, the hotel manager, Maggie Steed as Celia, the owner of the hotel, and Stephen Wight as Skoose, the bartender.

The series is set in the kitchen of Whites, where the main focus of the show is on Roland White's attempts to manage the hotel's kitchen, while dealing with the various personalities of his staff and the endless parade of difficult customers. The show is essentially a comedy of errors, as things often go wrong in the kitchen, leading to an abundance of hilarious mishaps.

The show is a perfect blend of food, humor, and drama, as it explores the daily struggles of running a restaurant in a small town. The characters all have their unique quirks and flaws, which add to the appeal of the show. Roland, for instance, is an eccentric chef, who is obsessed with creating the perfect dishes. But he is also disorganized, forgetful, and has a tendency to procrastinate. His sous chef, Bib, on the other hand, is more practical and down-to-earth, but he struggles with standing up to his boss and often finds himself stuck in awkward situations.

Kiki, who is the only female chef in the restaurant, is a talented pastry chef, who has a crush on Roland but finds it hard to express her feelings. Caroline, the hotel manager, is the voice of reason, who attempts to keep everyone in check, while dealing with the constant demands of the hotel guests. The owner of the hotel, Celia, is a tough and pushy businesswoman, who often clashes with Roland over the direction of the restaurant.

The show is a great comedy, but it also tackles some serious issues related to the food industry. The issues range from the pressures of running a kitchen to the importance of using fresh ingredients. The show also highlights the impact of food critics on the restaurant business and the difficulties of maintaining a good reputation.

Overall, Whites is an entertaining and well-written sitcom that will keep you laughing from start to finish. The show features a talented cast of actors, who deliver great performances and bring the characters to life. The storyline is engaging and lighthearted, and the food aspect of the show adds to its charm. If you are a fan of British comedies, then Whites is definitely worth checking out.
