I've watched the whole of Series 2 now and found it very enjoyable. There are some great cameos, particularly from Miriam Margolyes, and a lot of nice references and subtle gags. Lovely stuff.

Does anyone know why Dani Harmer didn't graduate to the series?
IIRC, she got her own CBBC series around the same time as the series would have been filming. Not forgetting her role in After You've Gone.
I liked the 'Allo 'Allo! reference this week. And the "with the mace" stuff.

Strike that. Apparently they just felt that they could get the characters better with the cast that we now know in the series.

Oh I loved that bit. Got a very big laugh and applause from me. There are a couple of other references coming up later on in the series that I also rather enjoyed.
And there's a kitten!
But it gots hurted.
But not reeeeeeally.
Coming Of Age is simply shit.

Really
I want to but I can't call this show 'bollocks' because bollocks have the useful important purpose of re-populating the planet, whereas this show seems to be completely lacking in the 'purpose' department.
Have you seen this week's episode, Johnny? Miriam Margolyes is excellent.
Loved the exploding ducks this week.
"Where did you buy it?" (a heart)
"At the Cow Shop"
"Butcher?"
[Deeper voice] "At the Cow Shop"
and "You Jazabel!"
This show is like my 'bit on the side' - a cheap slag I keep returning to, even though it makes me feel dirty.
That's EastEnders for me.
