Mumsnet Talk

Yes I too went to uni with a load of JPs, tho they were all doing "art history maaan" and they were all such mummies boys underneath. He's got a few more redeeming features tho, the ones from my era were all fast tracked into management positions they are no good at by Daddy and are complete twats that I now have to put up with at work.

I am being stalked by Fresh Meat. The geology trip location was 15mins down the road from us, and get this I have the same duvet cover as JP. (habitat, since you ask).

I love it, reminds me so much of uni days. At the time I think I thought I was as cool as Vod but probably in reality was more like Oregon

Half the people I went to Uni with were JP so I think that's why it tickles me so much!

How!! It's the first properly hilarious British show I've seen in ages!!

Also that other one with JP in, bad education.

JP is just so sharply observed, it's hilarious, in a bitter sweet way like the best comedies.

My DH doesn't get it either. Weird - it is so funny!

I love Fresh Meat but have to watch it away from DH. He just doesn't get programmes like this which is a bit unfortunate as I love them!

I have been crying with laughter at this week's episode. The bit with Dan Dan the Geology man telling Howard he'd got him a Shell placement, as JP and Kingsley arsed around in the background made me do a little wee!

Just watched this week's episode - sooo brilliant. I love Vod so much - what was the song playing when her and the handyman got down to it?

Tunip

love JP and Vod, one of the few programs that makes me laugh out loud at the moment.

I used to have a flatmate like Sabine.
She changed GPs because the one near our college didn't give out free condoms. I said 'Is it really worth it, they're not that expensive!' and she said completely deadpan 'But you see, I use a lot.'

omg! howard and sabine, jumanji

Just starting....

It's like the actress that plays Vod said when she was interviewed on Nemone, everyone has come together at the top of their game, the set designers, the writers, the actors, it's one of those doesn't-come-along-very-often triumphs....

DH and I love it. Series one was great but this one is even better.

Vod is my new girl crush

The BP man was Dr Fogarty in Hunderby and he's on some jobsite advert too (can't remember which one)

Was the BP man in The Office?

Oh Vod is a creature to behold!

i didnt know her name was violet either, its been a really funny series, the sperm ice cubes had me howling.

Yes I thought that too, Tunip. Vod looked AMAZING. I feel a girl crush coming on.....

LMAO Vivipru.

Who was the actor that played the BP man who fancied Vod? Looked familiar but I couldn't place him.

DP did industrial design at Uni. JPs phonerazor is not a million miles away from DP's first year project, the "Superzoomer" - a set of clippers-come-hairdryer that sucked instead of blowed. The similarities are astounding, including the oh so refined insulation tape... This evening, he's thoroughly enjoyed me resurrecting one of my favourite past times from the early days of our relationship, that being Let's All Take The Piss Out Of The Superzoomer.

I haven't watched the second series yet but Vod is just fabulous. Remember her presentation on Salman Rushdie last series? Genius.

Love the way she calls Kingsley pussy man. She has all the best lines.

wasn't sure about the josie mucking around on the job storyline given she's been portrayed as a flossing/anti bacterial mouthwash kind of girl. vod and the oil under the dress was excellent!
