Understand where your coming from, must say I disliked the character very much in the first episode. However, come episode 2 she did manage to win me over a little and raise a smile from me. I kinda felt tho' that I didn't want to laugh because of what i previously thought... Reluctant, one would say.

Great comidienne lousy part, or rather the only duffer in a great set of characters.
I love the mum very funny and a nice twist of realism.
You know I really liked the show, light, frothy funny and gently touching on lighter issues.
The G speech and the guru stuff was needless filler.
But you know small issues.
Quote: Aaron @ October 10 2008, 12:03 AM BSTI agree. I wouldn't be surprised if there are a few moments where the father appears a little uncomfortable, but I don't think we'll be getting that particular plot.
I think we will... https://www.comedy.co.uk/tv/beautiful_people/episodes/1/4/
Dammit!
If it was my show I'd let the dad do it to maybe help the son act butch to stop getting teased at school, but not because he actually wanted him to change.
Not looking. 
Oh you are strong.

She wandered past me outside London Bridge station on Wednesday morning and went into a shop. I didn't find it all that annoying.
Haha. I quite like her. My mum loves her for some reason.
I think I may have done one of her books at uni.
I was a bit hmmmm at first and wasn't gonna watch it but I love it! The mum cracks me up. I loved the exchange between the two boys mums in the second one.
"Have you heard of Hattie Jaques?"
"Yeah, cause you is wearing her dress...."
This weeks episode was by far the weakest so far. It was pretty crap. The constant blind jokes, the gay innuendo, lazy writing from my point of view. I don't know how it could go from being a rather funny sitcom to being awful in one week!

It's Jonathan Harvey. Take out the gay innuendo and there's nothing left.
I don't even remember what happened in this week's now. *scratches head*
