shull Posted December 31, 2020 Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 Last Hogmanay Special tonight. Although, it's been stated they will carry on doing some Podcasts. I have generally enjoyed the Show over the decades. " Making St Mirren Great Again" sketch was one of my favourites. I will watch tonight or on iPlayer tomorrow, if I am in bed early.

Bud the Baker Posted December 31, 2020 Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 The original radio broadcasts were good with the gruff take-off of the gruff William McIllvanney but the TV episodes quickly settled into a OF dominated groove, I doubt if I've watched it this millennium - well past it's sell by date. Off the Ball with Cosgrove & Cowan must surely be next... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Died a slow tragic death, tired format, lazy attempts at humour, nothing to appeal to a younger audience, add all that up and it get's what it deserves, hooked. PS just seen an advert for tonight's last episode, Frank McAvennie, how many fecking times?

I'm sitting at home right now looking at what I've written already and whilst it needs work and I might be deluding myself, I'm convinced that it's much better than that nonsense.

I’m sure you would get some constructive feedback. 😂 Why don't you give him a break ye trolling cnut ? You've been tailing and abusing him for days. So much hatred and jealousy from you. Why don't you and others congratulate Oaky for selling his Business and retiring. Also, taking his life in a new and hopefully happy direction. You and Judas are bullying cnuts.

Don't be so f**king stupid. There's not a chance I would ever put a word of my real script on Pie and Fecking Bovril. It was a piss take that everyone except you seemingly managed to understand. The moderators deleted it, not me. I am not actually writing a porn film script. Jesus f**king wept. What a spangle! 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
