I rely on Virgin's OnDemand service too much. Plus, I don' have + and the DVD recorder is loud and annoying, plus plus "she" isn't a fan.

:O
She must be stopped.

She's too powerful dammit! Save yourself whilst you can!!!

Sorry, I meant on Virgin's On Demand service. It normally pops up after the shows been on. Episode 1 is there, I'd presume episode 2 would've been up already.

No, I couldn't find it there either, so I watched it online.

Since "she" moved out, I get to watch whatever, whenever. Having the opposite sex (whatever that may be) in the house is more trouble than it's worth, imo. Why would a woman want to put up with me? I can certainly do without the endless hair-products clogging up the bathroom. I want to apply to be gay, it will be much more convenient.

Or just get a bald girlfriend?

I'm still a fan of R&M inc. but I'm not enjoying this series as much as the previous ones. I agree with Lee that they'd probably be damned if they changed it and damned if they didn't but it almost feels like watching a repeat every time.

I miss Johnny Vegas and Will Self. :( Have I just contradicted myself?

I just Googled JV - he's still performing live but why isn't he on TV anymore? Has he been entirely replaced by David Mitchell?

I have a crush on Will Self so I miss him too.

I'm sorry but I had to do it! /\

The final game today was amaaazing. Laughing out loud

And the horse moustache was rather fabulous too.

Agreed, the Lord Lloyd giant shoe eating face was spectacularly bizarre and funny.

Is it me or is the guest interaction greatly reduced from previous series? And did the old episodes have a longer running time? If the answer to both is yes, then it might answer my own question.

At which point, my post remains on topic but fairly irrelevent.

Ha.
I think there might be less guest interaction yes, is better. They almost always either tried to be funny (which NEVER works on a Vic and Bob show) or didn't get it at all and just looked annoyed. Is good to have the Angelo character, then they can talk to him but know they're getting good material.

Poor.

I was watching tonight's episode with my 62 year old mother who described the show as "stilted", "predictable" and commented sympathetically that "it's difficult to re-hash an old show and make it work". There you are, mother has spoken. Case closed.
