It's starting tonight - is anyone going to watch?

Starring Joanna Lumley, Jannifer Saunders, David Mitchel, Dawn French and SALLY PHILLIPS

i'm going to. it looks good but we shall see.

Apparently the reviews aren't very good.

But the GW reviews weren't veyr good, and we all know that they were wrong. :lol:

what cahnnel and time etc??

BBc1 9.30 i mite watch it not sure yet

ooh thank you :) i'll probs watch it - QI is on at 10pm right?? :blink:

yup, it's filling the gap between HIGN4U and Qi.

I DID try to tel you about this earlier, Rosalind.

did you?? :blink: :blink: when??? i really don't remember all i remember is the chocolate cocks and the loosing of money.... :unsure:

HMV.

You kept interrupting me.

oooh i might watch this!

Ohhh errr it clashes with I'm a Celebrity, but I will dragg myself away from watching screaming leeming to watch.

Sally Phillips plays the hippy daughter called Tash ;)

Ohh i'm sorry PR :hug:

it was quite odd :blink: :blink: but it was rather good - i liked it :)

Ohhh no I liked it, specially the funeral :lol: And Sally Phillips always looks so much younger with her hair tied back.

Ohh and that actress was in it who was also in Feel The Force and Green Wing as the school teacher/speach therapist.

I think this is one of those comedies that's going to simmer along and get better and better, well I hope it is.

it was rather funny - the whole knitting thing amused me a lot :lol:

and i noticed she was in it and got all happy :D

I've just watched the second ep- I love Sally Philips' character and Dawn French's!

I really want the theme song too! French and Saunders ROCK!!!!

yes other ppl are watching it and tlking about it in this thread lol

but it is very cool

I love Dawn Frenches characters! Margret and Rosie.lolz And that hair....hate sally philps....always have.lolz But love david mitchell!.......the show dosnt really have much of a point though.....

topics merged together with jam and scones.

I didn't think the second episode was as good as the first, but I did like the bit in church when they started serving coffee before the service had finished :lol:

Oops! Thanx Enzo!!

What about Joanna Lumley's character?- those teeth! lol

I liked the bit in the pub with the speech therapist from Green Wing:

Would you like a drink?

ooh I'm not sure... what do you have?

(sometime later, still trying to decide)

what's everyone else having?

Found it highly amusing as I have a friend who behaves exactly like that!!

i like it :) it makes me laugh and is good for quiet friday nites in! plus the old lady that buys tomatores is the sweetest thing ever.

It took me most of the first episode to realise it was Joanna Lumley playing that old lady!!

Lol! I loved that bit- My Mum (who watches it with me) gets annoyed cos I keep pointing and shouting "Rosie" or "Holly/Sarah" :rolleyes:

I also love Jennifer Saunder's character as I sometimes sound a bit like that :ph43r: ;)

Love the way she corrects everyone - her son isn't in a pop band, it's a rock band!

i liked it - i don't find myself laughing out loud much but i do like it - i love the vicar - he just has that "oh god not again" complex about him which i like

i liked the bit with the guy trying to sell the tomato - that was funny :)

I have to say the Vicar is my favorite character so far. But then I am a Vicar's daughter, so maybe I'm biased and it probably explains why I love Vicar of Dibly as well. :angel

this show is sooo good! joanna lumley is brilliant :D

Joanna Lumley definately has one of the better characters to play. I'm still watching this, but am getting a bit fed up with the mussy bits with Tash and her mum. Or maybe it's because everytime I see Tash, I just get the evil Holly in my mind.

I still think of her from Smack the Pony so I don't mind those bits. I want to see more of Dawn French's character as well ad Joanna Lumley's- the car seat thing had me crying! (with laughter- it was funny, not sad.. it's har face.... :ph43r: )

Yes and the "fancy coming dogging later" was good too. Oh and the bit with the Doctor/teacher/smear was funny.

Hehe! I'd forgotten about the smear bit! :D

just wondered if anyone has been watching it?

If you haven't but think Sally philips is a good actress, or even if you don't watch the latest one on bbc i-player because the wedding in it is so amazing and orrignal and I love it. it's quite a good show once you start watching into it and everything :)

Yeah the wedding was lovely. It was all just nice and gentle comedy.

it was so cute and I love elvish so that made me happy :D

I would love a unique wedding but i also want a traditional one and I love the "mobile home" :lol:
