Anybody going to be watching, or got any thoughts on how good, or otherwise, it may be?

I didn't see much of Thin Blue Line. What I did see of it had Rowan Atkinson being sarcastic-so a major creative leap from Blackadder there!
It is.
I won't be watching, no.
The character he played in The Thin Blue Line was nothing like Blackadder, not sure what you're talking about there.
And it was certainly nothing like Blackadder.
Mark Addy was in TTBL, before he got more famous in The Full Monty.
The sitcom that proves Ben Elton's no longer funny
It sounds like its based on a Richard Littlejohn column.
The Guardian - a newspaper so well known for its sense of humour.:rolleyes:
I'll be watching the first episode of TWW but I don't hold out much hope I'll still be a viewer by episode 6.
Well, it's hilarious blog and comments pages were the only things that made watching Outcasts and Hunted tolerable, in fact it was the only reason to watch so you could enjoy the post-ep piss-taking!
I liked The Thin Blue Line But I never claim to have any taste lol.
I'll reserve judgement till I've seen it, but was never a fan of Ben Elton as a standup; didn't find him funny at all.
I hadn't realised he ever had it.
Me too. Really liked The Thin Blue Line, and David Haig is always worth watching.
Hmm, I loved Citizen Khan but not Mrs Brown's Boys.
Just like the Daily Mail, eh?
