Brilliantly funny and using errors on the set just makes it even better.

Cracked me up.

I've never heard of this until today. I watched it and it's possibly the funniest thing on TV at the moment.

Before anyone else chimes in, it's a good job we don't all like the same things.







(I thought it was fking dire when they aired the first series)

It's great, and the first series was too. Letting things go like coming in at the wrong time, and cameras and microphones in shot make it. It's halfway between studio audience and live smile .

I'd heard of the program but had never watched it. Watched the Christmas special with Mrs THM, she literally wet herself at some of the one liners. The new series has been sky plussed, a definite must watch again in our house. wink

I got 5 mins in and felt I was watching something made at the same time as On The Buses.

This is really polarising views....

My wife made me watch the Christmas show yesterday, having watched it herself and found it side-splittingly funny. I just didn't "get" It - it struck me as the mediocre ginger-haired bd offspring of Bread and Father Ted. Not funny at all.....

Each to their own :shrug:

We had the Xmas special on, my mum and aunt(who are both nearly 60) were wetting themselves, its the first time i've watched it, and by the 3rd time they'd said 'feck' within the first five mins, i'd had enough. I can see why some people would find it funny, but its not for me...

Reminds me of my family*, but with more swearing.

*I mean people I'm related to, not the TV show.
