    From what Leslie Joseph said on Loose Women the stage show is very much for the fans, lots of interaction with the audience.

    The script was written by Gary Lawson and John Phelps, who wrote a number of episodes of the original TV series. The series' creators, Laurence Marks and Maurice Gran, were consultants on the play script and received a co-credit.

    Went to see the show last night and thought it was great. Only issue I had was that the mikes weren't loud enough and that the laughter from the audience drowned out a lot of the lines.
    I apparently missed a howler as the audience down the front started laughing before they had finished and this line actually stopped the cast whilst they tried valiantly to compose themselves lol It was in regards to Daryl and his lovemaking. Tracy said that Daryl's lovemaking was like his bank robbing, went in hard, shot 2 times and then that was it, didn't get the last of the punchline. If anyone else saw it and heard the whole thing, appreciate knowing what it was

    Are there any plans to extend the tour and maybe more dates in other parts of the country?

    Decent show. The BBC is hardly a wash with great pre-watershed sitcoms is it now, so why not bring it back?

    They're all still alive, willing and have an audience.

    I saw it a couple of weeks ago and the cast had to stop at the same point :p

    I can't remember the rest of the joke though, I was laughing too much :D
