Monday 11th May 2009, 1:20pm


This week's Points Of View featured a number of complains about the introduction of Russ Abbot's character Luther 'Hobbo' Hobdyke in Last Of The Summer Wine. Viewer Terry Bull said: "As a lifelong viewer of this programme, I think that after tonight's episode, I will never watch it again... it was dreadful and Russ Abbot's character really got on my nerves... so boring. Put it to sleep, please." The Points Of View complaints can be seen on the iPlayer until Sunday 17th May 2009. Fast forward 10 minutes.
