Yeah - and how vile some of the characters are! Georgia's a pretty horrible specimen, even given that she's 13, and Maggie's not an awful lot better.

It does get better as it goes on, honest

I agree about them both, but if you watch Series 2 Ep 1 that takes it to a whole new level with the aid of some trifle :)

They are both a bit 'nicer' from time to time though, really!

Will you try some more? haha

Episode 2 was an improvement, but still a little full-on with the obnoxiousness of some of them. Like the builder though, I understand he becomes a regular...

Yeah he stays until the end of series 2.

Once the kids have settled in it does get a bit more, say, relaxed and easy going, series 2 & 3 were definitely better.

Just watched that one, since I vaguely remembered watching it. It was ace.
And Georgia has a poster of Lee and Herring on her door. Yay!

I love it, think it's really funny, not always, granted, but mostly.

"Trifle Georgia" - SPLAT!

Classic, how that doesn't end up in clip shows of the greatest comedy moments is beyond me.

One of the most middle of the road, non-entity sitcoms of all time. A terrible situation and, as stated earlier, so middle-class it makes your teeth itch.

The opening credits were always very difficult to watch without cringing. There's a reason it hasn't been released over here.

It was getting 8 million viewers so must have had some appeal, it did improve in series 2&3

Why is 'middle class' so often used as an insult or a negative?

Not everything has to be gritty and depressing. (Thank God.)

I was gonna say the same thing.

Some people really have a rod up their arse when it comes to the class system.

I've just watched all of series 1. Excellent stuff.

The first series is out in Australia in Region 4 PAL. It plays on Region 2 in the UK though. I have played it on 4 different DVD players and it works fine.

It can be bought through ABC Shop.

They've still not released Series 2&3 though.

Thanks... although I don't know what ABC Shop is....

Type ABC Shop Australia into your search engine and it will come up.

Or type Next of Kin series 1 ABC Shop.
