FTOF Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 15 minutes ago, Seaside Nipper said: Started miserably and was toe curlingly bad, now, it's quite lol in parts to be honest. A more biting use of script, more earthy lingo and I must admit it's the only thing ever in which I can say Elaine C Smith is acceptable. I'm sure we all know folk just like those portrayed. Watson and Norton are good as well. Hats off , it's got much better with each watch. This is filmed in Paisley I'm sure.........? The original one off programme was, but it's now filmed in Bishopbriggs. Anyway, I think it's been very amusing and I've yet to see last night's episode . I do agree with your sentiments regarding Elaine C Smith. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shull Posted December 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 Last two episodes on Monday one after the other. It really has been one of the best comedies in years. I think Mondays two shows are going to be fantastic. I need a laugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salmonbuddie Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 It's been hit and miss for me, some really funny stuff combined with some really cringeworthy stuff. Overall, so far, thumbs up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shull Posted December 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 This cannot come quick enough tonight. Counting down the hours. Episode 5 - 10pm Episode 6 - 10.30pm Could be some of the best comedy ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
