The title is - it's most peculiar!

I think it was a mistake to bill it as a comedy. I didn't watch the first series because I was expecting...well, a comedy. But I watched one last week and I think it's growing on me...

Really?? I just watched the second of the series, couldn't get online at all so was even forced to focus on it, nothing, not a titter. I can't find the funnies! help! :wah:

it might even be 'Roger and Val have just got in' not sure. It is peculiar, just this husband and wife in their house all evening after they've finished their day's work. The characters are irritating to say the least, but pathetic irritating, not funny.

What I meant was that it was a mistake to bill it as a comedy because it isn't a comedy. I didn't laugh once but I enjoyed watching it last week, knowing that it wasn't supposed to make me laugh.

I am intrigued now.

If it doesn't clash with babies being born on channel 4 I might give it a look next week.

I like whatsername generally.

And we've come to the conclusion that it isn't, so if it isn't, then what is it :wah:

Don't ask me, I just watch and enjoy it and don't laugh

I can't find any enjoyment :wah:

Is it meant to be a representation of how a married couple carry on, it would drive me nuts. :-2

No, none of my marriages was like that...I was just driven to acute boredom

Life consists of optimists and pessimists - that statement in isolation would start eternal arguments between the two camps, a veritable holy war

And how! I've been on the receiving end of criticisms from couples who are celebrating their 500th anniversarys.

How so? They're responsible for their lives, not yours.

Hey Bruv...

Tonight's the night!!

BBC2 10pm





...bet he's busy watching babies being born right now :wah:

I don't think Rog is being completely honest with Val...is that friend on FB really someone from uni days?

I suppose it would help if I'd seen the first series

No idea at all :wah:

Took five minutes of thinking to work out what you were talking about, I don't think I've been watching it too closely :wah:

I watched the babies......was busy doing other things tonight as well so wasn't really in to it.

And it doesn't clash, I managed to see a few moments................nah.....not my thing.

It is possible that you have to watch it a few times to enjoy it......but it didn't do anything for to make me want to.

I shall not be rushing to see it again.
