Starts tonight at 10pm on BBC Two.
Worth starting a new thread (with a title which hasn't judged the quality of the show from the trailer) to discuss the series and what people want from it.
Will you be happy for it to follow closely to the style of the first series or would you prefer them to take it in a different direction?

Seeing places in the Lakes and North Yorkshire I've visited was part of the pleasure for me. I've only been to Italy once so thats not going to be a pull this time:(
Yep, will be watching, I love them together.
I certainly thought the beautiful Lakes scenery, and their impressions of the places they visited last time, was an appealing part of the first series. And seeing what they chose from the Menu. Definitely!
Will be watching tonight, as I think they make a good pairing - the tension aswell as the laughs.

I could believe that about the first one but this one seemed far more premeditated. Not that I'm complaining. Quality is key.
No fan of either actor and not a believer in the concept that an unfunny joke is funnier if done in a poor impersonation of someone else.
So you don't like either of the ONLY two people in it, but watched it anyway? Well good on you for trying, not surprised you didn't like it though. Your personal opinion won't affect my enjoyment, but good on you again for trying it.
Haha great comment
Good on the lad for giving it a go hey? I like Coogan but not Brydon. Well that's how I went into it anyway, but actually I came round to Brydon and thoroughly enjoyed the whole thing.
It's shot on one camera so each scene is done three times from different angles, so can't eat too much.
I really enjoyed this...had some laugh out loud moments which I was not expecting...
.
I loved the scene when they were discussing how young women look through them now as they're too old to fancy, and just smile at them like a benevolent uncle.
I don't think they're any more self-obsessed than most people in Showbiz, and can have a good laugh at themselves, and make an entertaining programme at the same time.
Superb show, they bounce off each other so well. don't think it's smugness at all, they are like 2 m8s having a subtle laugh together , bit like Peter Cook and Dudley Moore.
I can't believe some have a go at their impressions. Coogan in particular puts to shame those who do it as their day job.
