... I think I remember a thread about the series a long while ago, I do apologies if I'm repeating anything but I hadn't experienced the series at the time.
Now, however I love it! But I'm confused - I've bought the first series and the second series is just out - I want the box set tbh to take abroad and leave there too. But while looking in HMV on Friday there was an 'original' series I believe.
If I love the past two - is it worth me buying this other box set?
I intend to buy the box set of the recent two - but I'm confused as to the other one available.
Thanks in advance for any answers - I will be polite and reply ASAP.

Have only seen clips of this and don't find it funny but am confused as to what he/she is ? Thanks.
I'm going to enjoy the link after I've done dinner! Thank you:)
It's a bloke called Brendan O'Carroll. he's quite a famous Irish comedian. He struck the big time when he put on a curly wig and a dress and did the Irish Mammy shtick. He started of in theatre shows, sell through DVDs and now he's on the telly.
I don't find it funny either, but there you go.
He's just a male comedian playing the role of an old lady.
Aww! It wouldn't load RK.:(
Thanks. I really do not see the hype
Thanks .. Think I was looking too much into it
However most of the gags and situations from this series have been re-written and altered for the studio bound, 3 camera, with audience. BBC/RTE sit-com
I don't get it, doesn't make me smile let alone laugh!
Must be a generation thing...
I'm an oldie and I don't like it
Apparently, from articles I've read here O'Carroll is planning a new quiz chaired 'in character' as Mrs Brown, who gets members of the public to say whether a celebrity' answer to a question is correct. Sounds like a rewarmed up 'Celebrity Squares' which Bob Monkhouse did after he lost the Golden Shot in the early 70s. Not very original then?
C4 or SKY then ?
I can't see the Beeb allowing a lot of effing on a Game Show.
