Program finished a couple of minutes ago and my mother is still pissing herself laughing, I haven't heard her laugh out loud since she watched Mrs Brown's boys....I wasn't watching because I've been doing other things..
SHOUTY SHOUTY David Haig, shouty shouty shout, overacting, overacting, overacting, poorly dropped in observational humour, bad bad bad canned laughter, politically correct box ticked in the first 10 seconds with blatant explaining of his daughter living with her lesbian partner. The usual shower of ridiculous middle class charicatures we are used to seeing in BBC sh*tcoms.
Ben Elton, retire with some dignity, oh dear, too late.
BBC / GOLD stop giving David Haig lead roles in comedies, he isn't funny and his ridiculous shouty overacting would cancel out any comedy in the script, if there were any, which there isn't.
To summarise in the style of the daughter's lesbian partner, "duh!! Hash tag load of crap, hash tag beneltonstoppedbeingfunnyaround1994"
It was mostly awful laughed a couple of times. However I have to say this.
"ITS TICKED THE BOXES OF ALL MODERN SO CALLED COMEDY SHOWS THAT ARE ON THE TV TODAY. MIDDLE CLASS ECCENTRICS WHO WILL SOON BE DOING CHOCOLATE BLOODY BUTTON ADS"

It's typical of the sneery lot on here not to find anything funny:rolleyes:glad your mother enjoyed it but am mystified why........:cool::o:confused:
You do know who her parents are. Ill give her a chance due to her pedigree.
I know, but she's still bloody awful. Like everyone else. David Haig was good on The Thick of It as the Peter Mandelson-type figure, but dreadful here.

Well, both programmes feature a man shouting a lot (albeit one wears a dress) and both are incredibly unfunny.

There were a few funny bits in it, but it didn't sustain my attention.
Welcome return for Mina Anwar (Officer Habib in "The Thin Blue Line"), so with David Haig, two of 'em in this from that series
Actually, I'd rather see repeats of that.

Yeah, Haig stunk up the remake of Yes Minister too. He was the same in that.

I assume you're being sarcastic.
This show dreadful. Should be done under trades descriptions for calling itself "comedy".
You Have :eek::eek::eek::eek:

Completely agree yah it's not the best but is far from as bad as people are making out on here, and like you said there's been a hel of alot worse
All I'm saying is that everyone to their own.
Yah so have I
Aren't they the same person? She and Ben Elton?

I enjoyed Heading Out, but then I fancy the arse off Sue Perkins, although for obvious reasons, she'll never be mine

A little bit. Everyone shouting instead of talking is one thing in common, and the lack of humour of course.
She's 83....

Compared to this, When The Whistle Blows was Rose D'Or worthy.
A charming retreat into awful awful 90s sitcoms. Incomparably awful
No you are thinking of Sue Perkins and Colin Murray, separated at birth.
Episode One!
I thought it was funny.
