    It's so silly and stupid, but i somehow can't stop watching it. I like the jokes :D

    Is there a repeat run of series 3 on the horizon, for i missed it when it was on.

    Hopefully never. A grown man shouting crude things in a dress for half an hour and classing it as funny is not funny.

    The movie is out in June I believe, Brendan stated it on BBC Breakfast.

    So will say 2015, with a two show special at Christmas.

    It really is a Marmite type of show.

    I love it, but like you, my wife cannot stand it.

    I'm sure we all think certain programmes are a waste of our licence fee, Strictly, The Voice, The One Show for example, but if the BBC only made programmes we all like they would be pretty damn bland.

    Soon I hope. I never watched it when i saw the ads for it but I sat with my family at Xmas out of courteusy to watch it and within 5minutes I was howling with laughter.

    It is old style pantomime (it's a man in a feckin dress!!!), farce, pathos, honest and honest fun and O'Carrol balances all those elements beautifully.

    I can see it is marmite but it nails what it is trying to do - and it turns out to be not what I thought it was.

    Mrs Brown is someone that Brendan O'Carroll has had in his mind for decades - writing a book about it that was taken by Anjelica Huston to mke into a film.

    Thre is more care, skill, thought, passion and a love of the subject in this show than most of the balnd output on the BBC.

    Hopefully when they've made another series of "Are You Being Served".

    Just to provide a modern, contemporary benchmark for it.

    I stopped myself asking a question about Mrs Brown earlier because it ALWAYS attracts people that hate it and talk down to those who do enjoy it as if we are the scum of the earth just because we like a particular TV show!

    I'm sure I read somewhere that they are doing Christmas specials this year but not a full series until 2015.

    I read an article with Jimmy Perry, creator of classics like Dad's Army and Hi-De-Hi who says he enjoys Mrs Brown's Boys - that shocked me to be honest and I think is real praise for Brendon O Carol, coming from a comedy legend.

    It isn't my thing, I have watched it, I chucked a few times but didn't find it that funny, but I am not one of this miserable sods who believe if I don't like it then nobody should be allowed to like it. It is a piece of escapism in a sometime miserable world, Not everyone wants to watch well written, thoughtful comedy like 2012 or The Thick of It, sometimes people want something they can zonk out to on the sofa.

    Never I hope, this is an appaling series, not funny just vulgar, but I guess I am in a minority about this on the forum.
