Shuffles nervously to feet, clears throat

"My name is Mannikin Bird and I too think The Young Ones was sh*te".

Slumps back in chair.

Ooh the relief!

That's like 10 thousand spoons when all you need is a knife... oh no wait, that's just the wrong aisle in Ikea.

Since when have IKEA had anything remotely resembling isles? It's f**king madness in there!

You really don't need to stick an asterisk in the word "shite"!

Off topic but just noticed your shirt, Rick.

Does Hessle count as an ex-pat?

Virtually another country :D
To think you've got that big bridge on your doorstep and you haven't even tried to escape yet :P

Listening to the Friday Play on Radio 4 before and it was this guy going on and on about a family member who was an officer in Hitler's SS. It was done in front of an audience and the guy tried to inject humour into the piece which fell flat. God, it was boring.

The reason I'm telling you this is that I looked up his name and he's one of the writers of After You've Gone.......and According To Bex! Rolling eyes

I think this show is brillant, the beeb must like it as they have given it a 3rd series.

I agree, I've only managed to sit and watch about 5 minutes of this stuff and that was more than enough. Not a huge fan of Nicholas Lyndhurst or Celia Imrie, but as has been said I know they're both capable of much more than this bland rubbish. For me it goes into the box under the stairs marked "Pap". Also in there is My Family. Why can't they recommission stuff like "Shane" which actually was funny?!

No, a few million idiots liked it who stay in on whatever night it's on because it's on at prime time and because the BBC find it safe to put on.
