Anyone else agree that the wedding should have taken place in their flat?
To be honest I'd prefer that they didn't "go on location" at all.This is a classic British Farce and consequently all scenes should be filmed in their apartment. This second series has been unmissable for me!! |

Its unlikely to be recommissioned for a 2nd series because last night rating was a series low with only 2.2m. It started with 3.1m on its 1st ep of it 2nd series, so it dropped 900k fr some reason.
Shame because its better than most BBC comedies. |

I think it will be recommissioned, but in two years time again. I also think the third will be it's last series.

I saw McKellen being interviewed on CNN, and saw Jacobi in the background (talking loud and drowning out the interview).
![]() You know, I never knew that they were both gay in real life. I didn't even know Ian was. Plus Jacobi looks good to say he's in his 70s. But I wonder if this was Jacobi coming out? I've never seen him talk about it. Good for him, finally coming out. I guess not, I'm always a day late and a dollar short (article from 2013): http://www.radiotimes.com/news/2013-...n-the-last-act |

The cake in the face routine killed, all three times. And I was surprised when they mentioned Mason was Freddie's brother, though I suppose it makes sense. I just can't recall them ever mentioning it before. And as a side-note, the lady playing the shop assistant was really cute. The Frankie Sandford cut suits her.
Best joke of the episode: "A woman's marrying us? Isn't that a bit non-traditional?" |

This comedy is awful but if Americans like it it will get another series. That's the way it goes.
They changed the colour of Newcastle Brown Ale to suit the huge American market because they wanted it lighter.What America wants they get. |

If enough viewers from any country like it enough to make it commercially viable, it's likely to be recommissioned.Quote:

And you think that American companies don't localise products that they want to sell in the UK?Anywhere there is a big enough market and someone who wants to sell in it, products will be modified to suit local tastes, |

Because of this fact I think that ITV like to be seen spending the odd few quid on a programme that looks like it originated on BBC3. I bet ITV executives are signing off the funds for Vicious - Season 3 at this very moment

Truth is, the idiot American viewers, you know the ones who let Simon Cowell on their television after you lot spawned him, they're the ones who laugh at this merde. It is one of the worst I've ever seen, and an embarrassment for McKellen and Jacobi and LaTour, but hey if the morons like it, the advertisers will be happy to give it to them. Don't discount an American remake too - have you seen the dreadful remake of The Odd Couple? Do you think there are any Americans viewing this drek who even know what ale is or the original colour of Newscastle Brown? Don't think so. The Americans viewing this garbage drink Budweiser in their mobile homes and then go buy more at Walmart. I want more intelligent UK detective series on PBS, and I'm not getting them. Thanks to the mobile home crowd who watches reality shows. |

I tend to the same generalizations about foreigners too, at times. Never about Brits, I give them more credit than they deserve at times. Benny Hill, Are You Being Served, open door policy, royal family, and stuff like that.

Tell us folk who really enjoy this show who you think we are rather than disguising it as having a go at 'idiot American viewers.' |

the jasper scenes were pointless and not required, they could have done without that character completely and just left us wondering who he was
