Cadbury - ha ha! I do, but unfortunately he's just decided to jack in his job (graphic designer) and go off travelling round the world so I'm going to miss him lots and lots and he's going to miss lots of family things like DS3's christening.

Anyway - didn't you think the programme was fab? I don't know, it just really 'touched' me and I loved it. I'm a right romantic!

A girl I was at infant, junior and senior school with was in it. She's a couple of years older than me though. I kept getting distracted throughout. Do you think it'll be repeated late at night or maybe BBC3 before next weeks episode is on???

Just don;t understand the point of it - he was a tooser who was ok at the beginning - had some morals at least and then he became as bad as them by lying to his girlfriend that he had slept with someone.

And all the sex has to be vivid, I don't want to compromise, reading out that crap poem - all just nonsense!!

GGGGRRRRR - and to think I talked DP into watching it and now am going to have to sit through it each week cause he thought it was great!!

I had to turn it off as the accents infuriated me.Do TV producers think that everyone north of Watford must have an 'ee bah gum' accent?

What happened last night - watched last week but missed last nights as I was watching the end of that Tamzin Outhwaite thing on itv. Watched it mainly because Dougie Henshall was in it! Maybe that should be in the who do you fancy but are embarassed to admit thread!

It was mostly about Paul Nicholls' disabled brother's 18 b/day.

Thought it was brill again! And to think, I was planning to watch that Tamzin Outhwaite thing too but when I came downstairs BBC1 was on otherwise I'd have missed it!

Thought the brothers little script at the end was fantastic. Bit blubbery again I'm afraid. It's hormones - well, that's my story and I'm sticking to it

Thought it was fab again - made me cry! That's nothing new though!!

Classic line of that programme - Q: "I've seen your boxers in the washing basket Gary, don't tell me it'd be an effort.'

PMSL!!!
