Witless Page 2

Witless is to return for a third series on BBC Three Horray!

Series 3 looks set to be the final part of Leanne and Rhona's story - Should think so too.

(Had things ended with Series 2, it would have been like getting to the end of a novel and finding the last chapter missing. We hope the audience enjoy the exciting, rollercoaster end to the story) We don't want another "Lady Don't Fall Backwards"

The third - and apparently final - series is expected to be published online early next year. Boo!

YES!! It's back......................will it be finally resolved?

Another excellent series of Witless and a great rounded off conclusion. Wonderful acting by both Kerry Howard and Zoe Boyle and brilliantly written scripts. Loved all 15 episodes.

So now it can be told (the trouble with BBC3 complete series available online before it is played out each week "live") I read your .........."and a great rounded off conclusion" before I realised this could be a SPOILER (!) and so read no further.

As I pretty much surmised that it was going to be the last series and reach its finale, it turns out you didn't say much more, but it does raise the issue and I wish, if they are going to do that, that it was put out AFTER the series has finished.

Yes thoroughly enjoyed it and an excellent end to the story with Leanne ironically getting back on the witness protection she craved after going back to her hum drum life - I actually had a tear in my eye at the end seeing the photo on Rhona's phone. Big softy. :$

The only stain on the series was discovering that Kerry Howard is the sister of that unfunny arse-wipe Russell.

So the Yanks are going to remake this...................they'll f**k it up like all other attempts they do at remakes of English comedy.

Lots of remakes like this are announced, it probably won't happen though.

Just started into this series as a bit of a binge watch. I thought the concept was a good plot as I have seen good dramas on this subject Comedy? Witty one liners?? Nah! Eddy Murphy like quips???? Nah! Piglets?? Nah! Sharon Tate??? Nah! Not going out?? Nah! Im ex RN and I have an evil wicked sense of humour ..but its really not that funny from the girls side.
By the start of series 2 it was grating to the point of irritation. In places its funny but how anyone can be that thick I just dont know.
It just does not flow right. The bad guys are serious and to a degree look the business with very little comedy on their part. The two schoolboy Hitmen had more presence on their own. They said little and yet to me were funny. The bent cop vlog and video was funny because he was caught in a classic scam by 2 schoolboys. The bent cop and the the running down of the bad guy was great payback and his phone call about the mole in the police station was just great
The self obsessed blonde girl has no idea of their plight and just cannot stop messing everything up with her over the top verbal diarrhoea is driving me to distraction.
The other girl has good sense to know their plight but again is deffo short of the full quid. I thought she had cracked it smuggling the gun back into the villains pub but just when we think we have a win ..no she messed that up. I shall endeavour to persevere

Couldn't disagree with you more - I thought it was a brilliant series and loved every moment of it. Would have liked to have seen further episodes!!

Sharon Tate who was murdered by Charles Manson's followers?! That's a bit random

I must've totally missed this.

Really? It was sensationalized by the media back in the 60s, and led to Charles Manson being jailed for the rest of his life...

Dear old Dave misses a lot of things, and I do try to keep him up to speed (It's his age you know)

Speaking of which, Sven Goran another one died younger than me!! 😢
