I haven't had a telly for years so I have no clue. I don't get the appeal of MOST telly programmes. My friend spotted the big chap from G&S at a gig recently and explained to me in a loud voice (within his earshot) who he was. Robbie Williams gig at the Roundhouse. I'm not a fan, but I was there anyway, as was the big chap from Gavin & Stacy. He's rather jolly, which I know is a cliche, but he was.
I think I've seen that programme with the kids at my friend's house. If it's the same one then it's got a little girl with the face of an angel who goes on a bit and I have no idea how they get her to do that but she's really sweet and very funny. So, contrary to my earlier post, I guess some TV is worth having.
Maybe...but it still compares favourably with much 'recent' stuff. I think it's really very good. An absolute classic maybe not but really well scripted, decent characters, well acted, etc. I'm thoroughly enjoying this series so far too, when I thought it would have run out of steam by now.

It's the "Smithy doing his Nutty Boy dance" bit really


Other than that I "feel the love" but that's reflective in my contempt for this "show"


Really I want to be part of the joy gang I do ( I do ? see now I'm doing it....fuck )



But on this one, I just can't

* puts on "Smiths" tape *

I saw a bit of this by accident last week, not sure how as I rarely have t'telly on.


Thought it was absolutely brilliant.


Watched it tonight having made a mental note to do so (how grammatically correct am I).


Gutted I missed the first series. I think it's brilliant.


Feel like when I suddenly stumbled across Sex and the City just when it was about to finish :-$


Anything with Alison Steadman in is fine by me :)-D


Edited to add: Script is great, acting is great, it makes me laugh, that's it really.

Its brilliant for me, but it was recommended to me and therefore I watched it.


But then I think with most things you have to be in from the start - or if joining later, decide you really want to like it - if you start watching half way through and want to be impressed in one episode, then chances are it won't do it for you.


Its all about the characters and you need to get to know them.

havnt seen it .... though i was going to watch it , if i had been in this evening .. sounds excellent !

as for WFMTD statement above ... I feel the same way about Peep Shoe , I think David Mitchell is the most smuggest prick , and I want to kick the set in when ever he's on ... for instance , QI was on the other night and I would have watched it of he wasnt on , I couldnt bear to look at his smug face and listen to his stupid smug voice , so I turned over .... i realize Rob Brydon probably makes WMTD react in a similar way ....

    • While they struggle with economics of UK plc, collectively we all suffer as a result of their ineptitude. 
    • I’ve tried to find details of surgeries being held before but not found any. The section of the Southwark website that details councillors’ surgeries says that: Your locally elected Councillors will be holding a roving surgery programme in the Dulwich Hill area to enable residents to raise any local issues. Residents will be notified by letter in advance of the date, time and specific streets/roads where the surgery will take place.  Surgeries are not held in August, on Bank Holidays, Easter or in Christmas Week.  Dulwich Hill Ward Councillors I’ve never seen any notification of surgeries being held, including on the DH councillors’ social media accounts. I don’t know if any other residents of Dulwich Hill have? Neighbouring wards all seem to have times and places posted for surgeries.   
    • I wouldn't feel too bad about that. It's one of the few degree areas that you can do a BA or a BSc in, so it's a fairly wide-ranging and complex subject. Certainly Truss, Kwasi and Reeves seem to struggle with it.
    • I can't access the article - what's the gist?  I took the markets getting jittery when she was crying at PMQs to be a sign that they trusted her. But maybe it was because they were simply worried about any form of instability.  The NIC hikes have stymied the economy, which we could all see a mile off. Will a wealth tax improve things? Does anyone here think the trickle down has any impact and that chasing out the super rich will help things? Or are we just seeing off the biggest contributors to the economy? And has the Kwasi approach ever worked anywhere else?  Economics is not my strong point at all, I'd love to know others' opinions, but it seems to be she has few options, especially as the party is so divided.
