    She was the ugly fat lady in The Syndicate, the drama about a group of people who won the Lottery

    They should seriously have left it once the gran passed away. Disaster.

    THANK you! Was driving me mental as well.....I'm suspecting she's 'borrowed' the ring?

    The humour is absent. :(

    I'm no fan of the show, but I'm laughing and I don't do that very often.

    This isn't really The Royle Family though

    That whole 'I may as well come around here for my Xmas dinner' bit was pure 'Last of The Summer Wine'. The show is becoming a parody of itself. :(

    Barbara apparently has quite formidable forensic skills in identifying earwax purely by eye...

    It seems more gentle- a bit like some of the episodes were. They weren't all laugh a minute. I tend to agree with the earlier poster who said that, after all this time, we care about the characters enough so that we don't have to laugh out loud at everything

    this is awful. far too slapstick. one dimensional characters trading on the same old jokes.

    denise used to be funny and warm but now they rely on the one joke about her being bone idle.
    barbara seems more and more dense each episode.
    jim is just a nasty old man now. no likeability left at all.

    The scriptwriters seem to have decided that Barbara is now brain-dead!
