Cannot see a thread about the Christmas show which is surprising, this is one of the most loved/hated shows on TV

Personally I love MBB but thought this was a particularly poor episode, comedy was very forced.

Quality has been declining recently, the film was also very poor

Anyone enjoy the Christmas special

Love it myself , but it was poor, very poor indeed.

Used to love the show but the jokes are all old rehashed ones now ,not funny at all

They've never ever been funny

The link is for an appreciation thread, my comment is not an appreciation of MBB

I echo this to be honest for half an hour my god did it drag

The mistakes left in seemed a bit more forced than usual.

There didn't seem to be a proper storyline just a selection of non connected scenes. Grandad being seen by the doctor didn't seem to go anywhere, the hairdressers burning down resulted in one throw away scene that didn't really do anything.

I love it but it really has run its course now. Apparently they have bought Christmas specials up to 2020!

Tonight's episode was from 2014....

Think you have nailed it- spot on

I often can't help but laugh at some of the things that get said in this show. Brendan's a right funny one the way he goes on at times. The way he sometimes looks and what he sometimes says.

it was the worst one yet: it felt forced and over-scripted and about as funny as Theresa May claiming to be on the side of the just about managing. Not a single lol moment.

Even in the appreciation thread there are fans saying the Christmas show was poor. .

how this excrement is so popular is beyond me

cause you really have to have the intellect of a primate to find it funny

Or you know, people are different and have different senses of humour?

The 'I don't like it so everyone that does are idiots' way of thinking seems to be getting worse every year.
