I guess you’re entitled to an opinion no matter how wrong it is :man_shrugging:

I’ve been watching some of it with the gf, its mostly pretty silly. Not sure if i rate them for the references to stephen lawrence (a very similar name anyway) or if it’s really bad taste.

Hahaha I’m in the minority I know.

I’ve enjoyed earlier series - particularly the Lindsay Denton one, and looked forward to watching this but left disappointed.
I get that having Buckles take the fall for it nods towards corruption being systemic and unresolvable, rather than being run by a Kaiser Souza (sp) individual and thus being an individually led thing, but the final episode was dog shit.
Sadly it stank of everything Netflix etc do too - get a successful show then rinse it to death until everyone is disappointed.

Also a maybe bit Netflix-ey in that things are not fully resolved as they kind of make it up as they go along, and need to leave scope for a possible new series, unlike films where there’s a proper beginning middle and end.

Haha… ITV2 8pm, right? My kids have just discovered it too over the last few weeks. I’ll pay more attention.

Theres 10 seasons on Disney+. Im cracking up at it. If you like Archer itll be right up your street

Ah right… they just chill out to the ITV2 ones, that’s perfect for my kids before bedtime, bit of lazy parenting routine, haha.

Hope you bought the DCs to watch it in.

This was really good.

Archer and Bob are the same voice actor too.There’s an Archer crossover episode when he works in Bob’s.

I think it would be in everyone’s interest if the rest of the new Alan partridge shit, and I do mean fucking shit, never goes to air.

Jesus.

I knew it was going to be bad but fuck me. 30 straight laugh free minutes.

You’re tripping. It’s fucking hilarious and gets better with every watch - you spot something new.

The format just simply doesn’t work. At all.
