No, just having my say.
As am I. I'm giving my opinion on Gogglebox, I'm fine with that but I'm not instructing users in regards their opinions.

I don't think It's scripted, but I think they play up to the cameras and are fed some of the one liners
Yes I concede that this may be likely...on occasions.

Are you so sure? You remember the context do you? Queenie is apt to say "ya get me?" when she thinks she has made a clever remark - she has done this on several occasions now ... that is why it grates on me because she is not that bright. So, you see, it is not a misinterpretation at all!! If you are going to make a criticism be sure of what you are saying.
I understand the usage of the phrase 'you get me' changes depending on context.
I'm sure of what I'm saying, you think whatever you like.

They're certainly prompted at times by the production team. It's been stated many times in interviews (and discussed here at considerable length ).

They are often quite easy to spot though I feel.

Recorded last nights show as I was watching Strictly but caught up with it earlier today.

Three new families, loved the Golden Girls, much better than Sandy and Sandra in my opinion.

Highlight of the show was Ma Michaels trying to get her head around the fella who was having a head/body transplant.

For the occasional one liners - yes, i.e. not for everything they say.

As originally stated, I was just wondering was the scriptwriter credited, that's all.

You think they would own up to feeding them the odd one liner and credit the scriptwriter? Ha...highly unlikely!
The whole point (of throwing the cast the odd funny bone) is that they want you to think they are that witty n'est pas?

I used to do stand up comedy so I may have the edge when it comes to spotting them!

Yes, body transplant. That's what I said. Mummy Brighton was calling it a "head transplant" which cant be right. You appear to be agree with me.
I thought mummy Brighton was calling it a body transplant and the programme was saying head transplant. Oh well how nice to agree

I know a lot of people do not like this family because of the loudness of Louis .. but his mums bewildered thought on that proves why he is like it. I find them really funny

Not a fan of the Golden Girls I did like the 3 black blokes as they seemed really natural.

The comment at the end with the Siddiqui's about the GBBO I think will be spot on

Decent episode I thought

Happy to see no Leon, Essex sisters are growing on me, the older ladies seemed a little boring so far
Who are they ?

Re. The Michaels family - how embarassing was it for hubby Andrew to discover he did not know the colour of his wife, Carolyne's eyes on national TV! She must have been surprised.

Surely not the two tarty bits from Leeds? Could someone mistake them for Essex girls?

Can't be doing with the two old dears, going on about half-naked builders and falling asleep in London. If they were more like the Harry Enfield version then they'd be tolerable but it was just a "I'm 85, you know?" "Hmmm" snorefest. Not a fan of the country bumpkin accents either.

How can u be so rude about Brizzle people?

I like them, ageist I know to be tickled by their inappropriate discussion about topless workman but there u go. Life in the old gals yet. Loved the contemplation about whether they would give Brad Pitt the time of day now he's single "well I suppose I'd let him wine and dine me"

That must be where they think they are from

I cannot stand those 2 girls. They are like a sketch from Les Dawson and Roy Barraclough.
